Every plumbing contractor has to start thinking about green building and green plumbing. While the green building movement is politically correct, it can also be pragmatic when you think in terms of our children's future.
Most of you have heard or read about the green building movement, but you may not may not have considered the full impact that it has on plumbing systems. Green building installation for plumbing includes the additional savings of water and the lowering of energy demands for operating a plumbing or mechanical system. Other green building initiatives are the reuse of storm water and recycling of gray water. All of these concepts make sense, even though they may increase the cost of installation.
