According to the National Resources Defense Council, “As of January 1, 2016, older kitchen and bathroom fixtures will be illegal” in California. This code applies to new plumbing fixtures; not existing. This isn’t the first time the government has stepped in and issued new legislation aimed at saving water. Federal and State Governments can’t afford to fail when tackling water scarcity. The Federal Energy Policy Act of 1992 outlawed showerheads that flowed more than 2.5 gpm. Bureaucratic invasion in the bathroom caused a loud and furious outcry of protest as everyone was re-educated about the advantages of taking a water efficient shower.
Wonderful things happened as the general public had no choice but to get used to taking a reduced-flow shower. Long-range water sustainability made massive leaps forward as many trillions of gallons of water were now not going down the drain flooding the sewage treatment plants. Energy dependence was reduced as hot water heaters could be turned down because now a shower could be taken without emptying the hot water tank.
Life went on and so did the drought! As this widespread drought continues to run the western states dry, new water policies and laws are once again being implemented that are aimed at helping reduce water usage. With new water policies come new technologies to help ease the transition into an ever evolving mind-set of living a more sustainable lifestyle that balances tomorrow’s needs with today’s availability.

When a Water Select flow-control valve is attached to an existing showerhead and an Instant-Off flow-control valve is added to an existing faucet these fixtures are immediately transformed into zero waste, high-efficiency fixtures.

In the summer of 2015 the California Energy Commission voted to adopt stricter standards for future water-using products.
