For the home

Save-a-flush

About one third of all water used in the home goes down the toilet.  A save-a-flush can save up to 1 litre of water per flush.

A save-a-flush is a plastic bag containing crystals that swell when submerged in water and takes up some of the room in the toilet cistern so that when it refills it doesn’t use as much water.  They are really easy to install in most cisterns and are available free of charge to our customers.
