How to Build an Eco-Friendly Bathroom

According to a recent study, the U.S. wastes hundreds of millions of gallons of water a day, using only 3% for human consumption and over 40% for lavatory usage. That is not good for the environment, nor your wallet! Eco-friendly bathrooms have great potential to save both water and money. A well-designed bathroom should be able to save up to two or three thousand gallons of water a year and generate savings of up to $1,000 annually all while making your business more environmentally friendly. Here are a few tips on how to build an eco-friendly bathroom for your business:

Choose a water-conserving toilet

Choosing a water-conserving toilet is an excellent way to help protect the environment. Choosing this type of toilet can save up to 7,000 gallons of water per year, which is the equivalent of 100 hours of watering your garden! Toilets use more water than any other appliance in the home or business, and choosing a water-saving appliance will help lower your usage drastically. 

Install low flow taps

Low flow taps are an eco-friendly way to conserve water. Replacing your old, inefficient tap with a low-flow model can help save water and money. It’s are one of the easiest ways to conserve water in your business. They use a measly 2 gallons of water per minute. A standard high-flow tap uses five or more gallons per minute, adding up to tens of thousands of gallons over a lifetime. Low flow taps also reduce your monthly utility bill because they use less electricity and less gas or oil to heat the water.

Use natural colors on the walls, linens, and towels

Several studies have shown that natural colors can make your bathroom more eco-friendly. When you consider the environment, there are several reasons why using natural colors for your wallpaper is a good idea. The first reason is that it will help reduce your electric bills. Natural-colored walls absorb heat during the day, making it easier to get rid of excess heat at night. This means that you will avoid running the air conditioner or heater as much, saving energy and reducing your electricity bill. The second reason is that these natural-colored walls will help you save water because they are more likely to be cleaned instead of dirtying up permanently like dark colored surfaces.

Include sustainable fixtures in your renovation plans

Sustainable fixtures are not only environmentally friendly, but they also come with a lot of benefits, such as cost efficiency and longevity. In addition, sustainable fixtures can help avoid the use of poisonous chemicals and reduce the risk of toxic exposure. Finally, using these fixtures in your bathroom can also lead to reduced water consumption, which is beneficial for both your wallet and the environment. You should consider these sustainable features when looking for ways to renovate your bathroom to make it eco-friendly or at least more eco-friendly than before, especially for your business. Some businesses find that using a 

3d bathroom design tool can help them t consider the layout of their bathroom as well as any sustainable fixtures that can be implemented. 

Conclusions

If you want your bathroom to be eco-friendly, there are so many more things you can do. For example, you can stop using harsh chemicals to clean the room, start using biodegradable soaps and shampoos made from organic ingredients, and avoid using harsh chemicals for other purposes. This can make a bathroom that your business can be proud of, whether used by employees or customers.
