Using faucet aerators, or flow constrictors, can save a lot of water, waste water, and hot water usage in your house without compromising comfort or convenience. The unique design provides an even flow of water without creating any additional noise. The tamperproof models are designed for apartments and hotels to discourage tenants from removing the flow restrictor from inside the aerator body. A 0.5gpm aerator replacing a 2.2gpm aerator will save over 3100 gallons per year if the faucet is used 5 minutes per day. At a $2.52/CCF cost for water and wastewater, this is a savings of $10.45 per year, not including the savings on hot water. In this case, you would see over 350% return on investment while helping the environment at the same time. The payback period is just a matter of weeks!
