How much $$$ do you waste by buying bottled water?
One case of bottled water from your grocery store costs approx $4.99 per case. $4.99 times 52 weeks per year equals $259.48
plus tax. VERSUS two reusable water bottles costing $19.99 each for you and your mate. That's a savings of over $220.00 per
year.
What would you do if someone gave you $220.00 cash, every year for the rest of your life? That's how much you could save just
by using reusable water bottles instead of buying bottled water. --- That's like having an extra check from President Obama's
economic stimulus package, every year from now on...
And by doing your part, you're keeping 1,248 additional empty water bottles out of the landfills, every year. Over a 10-year
period, that's 12,480 bottles. Over 30 years, that more than 36,000 water bottles.
Keep in mind too that bottled water has the fluoride removed, which means more trips to the dentist.

How Much Water is Wasted Waiting for It to Get Hot?
The average home wastes between 10,000 and 15,000 gallons of water each year, just waiting for the water to get hot.
For example, take a home with 125 feet of 1/2 inch pipe.
125 feet of 1/2" copper pipe holds 3.14 gallons of water.
10 draws per day wastes 31 gallons of water. Over a year, 11,461 gallons of fresh water has been wasted by this example household.
25.2 million homes waste 88,817,000,000 gallons of water annually, just waiting for the water to get hot.
The $$$ charged by water companies varies dramatically from one part of the country to the next, so the savings will vary
depending on where you live. Look at your water bills to see what your potential cost savings will be. Multiply 15 (for 15,000
gallons) by the $ cost per thousand gallons charged by your water company. If the cost of water is $3.00 per thousand gallons,
you could save $45.00 per year. But if your cost of water is $9.00 per thousand gallons, you could save $135.00 per year.
One way to save that $$$ is with a HOT WATER Recirculating System, which continually delivers hot water to the faucets throughout
your home or business... so no waiting for hot water.
