The EPA-sponsored WaterSense program that offers simple ways to use less water and energy while saving money on utility bills, has built four WaterSense certified new homes in Roseville, Cal. that will help save an average of 10,000 gallons of water and at least $100 on utility costs yearly per family. These homes include WaterSense labeled plumbing fixtures, efficient hot water delivery systems, a water-efficient landscape design and use about 20 percent less water than a typical new home.
