Low-Flow Toilets—Do You Need Them?

October 17, 2022

Low-Flow Toilets—Do You Need Them?

At Trophy Signature Homes, we make it our mission to build top-quality new-construction homes throughout our one-of-a-kind communities in the most desirable areas in DFW—and our commitment to energy efficiency is second to none. Our team of experts cares about every element that goes into our homes, from LED lighting to mechanical ventilation and everything in between—including our highly efficient low-flow toilets. 

The Environmental Protection Agency says that an estimated 4.8 billion gallons of water are flushed down the toilet every day—but with the use of low-flow toilets, Trophy Signature Homes is working to help lower that number while providing the utmost satisfaction for our homeowners. 

Why are low-flow toilets important?

Whether you’re looking to save money on water costs or be kinder to the environment, low-flow toilets are far more impactful than they appear. Water is a very precious resource—especially with the dry climate in DFW—and our low-flow toilets are designed to conserve as much water as possible, which also saves energy. Energy is needed to filter, heat and pump water to your home, so reducing your water usage also reduces your carbon footprint—keeping more water in our ecosystems and helping local habitats remain healthy. In the past, toilets were one of the greatest water consumers in a modern home, but with the technological advancements of low-flow toilets in recent years, homeowners can help conserve local water resources while giving their wallets a break. 

Trophy Signature Homes incorporates low-flow toilets throughout all of our homes—reducing water usage for toilets by a noteworthy amount. According to epa.gov, the average family can lower their water usage by 30 to 60 percent with low-flow toilets, amounting to nearly 13,000 gallons of water savings each year—which can result in monetary savings of more than $140 per year in water costs and $2,900 over the lifetime of the toilets. 

How do low-flow toilets work?

Low-flow toilets are a suitable option for those looking for an eco-conscious toilet model that doesn’t compromise durability, quality or performance. The low-flow toilets throughout our homes use just 1.6 gallons per flush, which is about 2 gallons less than a traditional toilet would use. In a low-flow toilet, the outlet is located near the center of the bowl, while it is located near the back end of the toilet in a regular-flow toilet—meaning that less water is used to push waste in the direction of the exit. A low-flow toilet will significantly reduce the amount of water needed to channel waste through the plumbing system and away from your home, helping you save money right away. To put it simply, low-flow toilets are specifically designed to use the least amount of water—but doing so in the most efficient, effective way possible. 

From the environmental benefits and high performance to the money and energy savings, low-flow toilets are one of the best energy-efficient additions a homeowner could add to their home—and we’re proud to include such an amazing feature in every single one of our homes at Trophy.
