SUGGESTIONS FOR SAVING WATER

Currently, water and energy resources are increasingly scarce on the planet. Being aware of such problem, each one of us must contribute to the optimization of resources. To save water, for example, contributes to the environment and reduces your monthly invoice.

Here are some suggestions you may start by applying at your home!

1. Assess the consumption of water in your home. Take into consideration how many people live there and establish between you all methods and strategies not to waste water;
2. Turn off the tap whenever you are not using water;
3. Only use the dishwasher and the washing machine when they are full;
4. Wash your car without a hose. According to EPAL, washing the car with a hose is equivalent to a usage of 570 litres, while with the bucket you will only use approximately 57 litres of water;
5. Use the CTESI Green flow regulators in the taps of your home.

CTESI enables you to save water without giving up the attractive design. All CTESI taps are equipped with cartridges in ceramic which gradually and accurately regulate the water flow and temperature. These cartridges offer an increased durability and resistance to wearing, which ensures increased efficiency and longevity of each one of our taps.

The CTESI Eco-Safe cartridges are characterized by the opening feature in 2 handle positions: half opening and full opening. With the handle’s half opening, you will have a 50% flow of water and, should you need a greater flow, you will have to activate the full opening. As a consequence, we allow for an increase of the possibilities for the regulation of the flow of water, thus saving water and energy.

The CTESI Eco-Energy system which is fit on the Jazzy and Keen taps enables you to save energy without affecting your comfort and convenience. When activating the tap in the handle’s central position, the tap will always open with cold water, preventing in this way the water heating system from being initiated each time you turn on the tap. In order to select the intended temperature, with the Eco-Energy system, you simply need to rotate the handle to the left, towards the direction of hot water. Experience all the comfort in your bath while contributing to a greater water and energy sustainability.

CTESI offers a range of taps which are fit with 1/4 turn cartridges, allowing them to open the maximum tap flow by rotating the handle only ¼ turn. This technology allows for an easier control of the intended water flow and speeds up the handling of the tap, while reducing water and energy waste at the same time.

In case you do not have the financially availability to acquire new taps, CTESI provides you with the option of only changing their tap aerators to the CTESI saving tap aerators.

The tap aerators are essential components for purposes of saving water. They prevent the accumulation of small limestone debris and the limitation of the flow of water. With our range of saving tap aerators, you will be able to achieve a reduction of up to 50% water in the taps of your home. These tap aerators are aimed at mixing air with water, due to the side openings which allow the entry of air, giving the same sensation of water flow and pressure, but obtaining a very effective reduction in its flow.

With the CTESI Green solutions we enhance small actions to make all the difference, saving on the consumption of water without affecting the efficiency and the comfort of using this resource, so essential for life on the planet.
