Zurn Industries joins plumbing organizations and their members in recognizing World Plumbing Day today.

The World Health Organization reports that 2.6 billion people do not have access to adequate sanitation. The United Nations says more than 1 billion people are living with a shortage of fresh water.

The company believes in the value of World Plumbing Day, an annual international event initiated by the World Plumbing Council, to celebrate the important role plumbing plays in the health and safety of modern society.

In honor of World Plumbing Day, Mr. Rooter will be offering comprehensive in-home plumbing check-ups.

In honor of World Plumbing Day  — today, March 11 — green building practices and LEED certification guidelines are in the limelight. In order to exist in this world in a way that benefits our local and national communities and conserves water, our most valuable resource, clean and sustainable plumbing practices are essential.
