UL To Provide WaterSense Certification
Underwriters Laboratories announced it will
provide testing and certification services for the EPA’s WaterSense program. As
an approved certifier, UL will work with manufacturers to obtain the WaterSense
label for products that comply with EPA criteria, which require at least 20 percent
greater efficiency in water utilization. The WaterSense program is initially
available for high-efficiency toilets and irrigation products and will be
expanded to include additional water product categories including
high-efficiency faucets.
