Water-saving technology for the home includes:

  • Low-flow shower heads (sometimes called energy-efficient shower heads as they also use less energy, due to less water being heated).[citation needed]
  • Low-flush toilets and composting toilets. These have a dramatic impact in the developed world, as conventional Western toilets use large volumes of water.
  • Dual flush toilets created by Caroma includes two buttons or handles to flush different levels of water. Dual flush toilets use up to 67% less water than conventional toilets.
