Water-saving kit for toilets and taps

With the water-saving kit, savings are made at every fitted outlet: the shower drops to 8 L/min, the taps to 5 L/min, and the eco-bag saves up to 2 litres of water per flush.

The actual saving on your bill depends on your current fittings, your habits and the fixed portion of your water tariff. The shower is often where the biggest gains lie: you save both water and the energy used to heat it.

Yes, the water-saving kit installs without tools. The tap water savers screw on in place of the existing aerator, the shower water saver fits between the hose and the shower head (or on the mixer tap), and the eco-bag is simply placed in the toilet cistern.

Just make sure the eco-bag does not obstruct the float or the flush mechanism.

The water savers in the water-saving kit are compatible with the majority of household installations. To check, try unscrewing the aerator from your tap: if it unscrews, your tap has a standard threaded spout.

Taps with a built-in or unthreaded spout cannot take a water saver.

Yes: the water savers in the water-saving kit reduce the flow while maintaining a comfortable spray, as they mix air into the water. How it feels depends on your mains pressure: if it is already low, the difference will be more noticeable.

Remember to descale the water savers with white vinegar from time to time to keep a good flow.

The eco-bag in the water-saving kit is most useful in older, large-capacity cisterns. In a modern dual-flush or small cistern, it may leave the flush too weak: some local authorities point out that it is not suitable for all cisterns.

It saves up to 2 litres per flush when submerged in the cistern. It must not obstruct the float or the mechanism.
