  1. What is the cost of a leaking toilet? What is the cost of a single toilet overflow?

  2. What is a ? ?

  3. A Toilet Guardian is a smart water valve that Eliminates Bowl Overflows and Stops Water Loss ($$) from Flapper and Fill Valve Leaks

  4. In our facility, an overflow creates more the $150 in extra costs. In one month 10 units stopped 40 overflows and saved us $6000. John H. Country Meadows Retirement Community, PA (He ordered 90 more.)

  5. And on a daily basis: A running toilet can waste anywhere from 2 to 6 gallons a minute. That’s 86,400 to 259,200 gallons per month! And it seems that as much as 90% of complaints to municipal water boards for high water bills can be traced to running toilets. In addition, consider the fact that a new low-flow toilet averages 1.6 gallons per flush, and that the waste from a running toilet can be, conservatively speaking, 2 gallons per minute. Should your running toilet run for an hour, it’s equivalent to flushing it 75 times! http://www.leakbird.com/water-leak-detection/top-ten-ways-to-repair-a-running-toilet

  6. Toilet Tanks and the U.S. Census Sometimes what at first sounds laughable turns out to be serious. For example, October is National Toilet Tank Repair Month. Most people aren’t sure about the mysterious inner workings of this vital piece of household equipment and leave its occasional problems for professional plumbers to handle. It’s estimated that 1-in-4 toilets in the U.S. leak, and each one can waste more than 70,000 gallons of water a year. (EPA) A leaking toilet may be costing you $5 to $15 per toilet each month in water costs and sometimes more. A single stuck open flapper can add over $2000 to your water bill in 1 month. That’s $66 per DAY!!! http://ezine.buncombecounty.org/ezine_print.asp?ezineDate=10/12/2009

  12. Toilet GuardianCost Savings Analysis By AquaOne Technologies

  13. The purpose of this presentation is to examine the water savings, cost savings, and property protection available to users of the Toilet Guardian w/optional Bowl Overflow Elimination.

  14. The American Water Works Association • Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) • Dozens of Municipal Water Districts • City and State Government Agencies • The US Navy • States of Hawaii, Texas, California, Minnesota, and more • And they ALL agree on a single fact about toilets……… Studies on Toilet Water Leaks

  15. …the toilet IS the highest water use AND waste fixture in the average household. It is also the NUMBER ONE CAUSE OF WATER DAMAGE from indoor water appliances!!

  16. 33% of All Household Water Use is for the Toilet !!! • AWWA – American Water Works Association states that in the US, 1 out of 5 toilets leak.1 • EPA states that 30 – 500 gallonsgoes through a single toilet in a day for a small “silent” leak. 2 • An open flapper valve can waste 280,000 gallons of water in a month!3 1. http://www.sustainabilityproject.org/pdfs/5water.pdf (pg. 6) 2. http://yosemite.epa.gov/ 3. http://www.ncmud.com/conservation/index.html

  17. Cost of a toilet leak: The Real Story Hawaii A public-education program, every July, is aimed at reminding Hawai'i residents to find and fix leaks in their homes. Leaky toilets cause about 80 percent of high water bills, according to the Honolulu Board of Water Supply. They tell the residents that a single leaky toilet could waste up to 172,800 gallons of water in one month, and add $576 in water charges (to their water bill). "You can have a small toilet leak, but it could cost you hundreds of dollars on your water and sewer bill," said Board of Water Supply spokeswoman Su Shin. Leaks "aren't something you think about all the time ... But it's important to remind people to check for leaks regularly.” http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/2007/Jun/03/ln/FP706030363.html

  18. A leaky toilet can waste about 200 gallons of water every day. 1 EPA 20 % of all toilets leak. 2 City of Boca Raton From our experience, over 85 percent of the leaks in residential plumbing systems are found at the toilet tank. A typical toilet leak at the current rate can add $50 or more to a single bi-monthly water bill. We encourage you to check your toilet anytime you suspect a leak. 3 South Carolina Water District But don’t take our word for it. Check it out for yourself!! 1. epa.gov/watersense/water_efficiency/what_you_can_do.html 2. ci.boca-raton.fl.us/Util/PDF/30WaysUCanConsWater.pdf 3. scwd.org/custserv/custfaq.htm

  19. A leaky toilet flapper can lose up to 200 gallons of water a day. A stuck OPEN flapper can lose up to 6000 gallons per day !! ….and more tampabaywater.org/conservation/index.aspx

  20. The growing number of residents within the SFWMD – now numbering more than 7.5 million – put a huge demand on the region’s limited water resources. We are also, on average, heavy users of our limited supply – close to 175 gallons per day, per person.  Alternative water supply projects such as reuse of reclaimed water help create new sources to meet long-term needs, but easy water conservation practices can still stretch our existing supply. 1 So if your toilet is leaking 200 gallons per day…. Directly from the South Florida Management District http://my.sfwmd.gov/portal/page/portal/xweb%20-%20release%203%20water%20conservation/year%20round%20irrigation%20rule

  21. How are your water rates structured? On the Monterey Peninsula, water rates are structured so that residents and businesses that conserve water pay $0.28 cents for every ten cubic feet of water used, while those who waste water are charged $2.81. If water leaks are left unattended, the water lost can easily climb into the higher rates, resulting in hundreds or even thousands of dollars in additional cost to customers' monthly water bills. http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/california-american-water-and-epa-promote-water-leak-detection-and-repair-during-fix-a-leak-week-march-15-21-2010-87400512.html

  22. Is it the flapper or the fill valve ? With all the different types of toilets, is there really such a thing as a universal flapper ? So… what IS the real cost of not fixing the leak?

  23. Cost of Toilet Malfunctions 1 stuck open flapper- $2800 per/mth 1 leaky flapper $50-$500 per/mth 1 unchecked toilet overflow- $36,000 Remember-Even a brand new flapper may begin to leak within the first month of installation!!

  24. The Toilet Guardian senses these issues and shuts off the water BEFORE you get the big bill !

  25. With the Toilet Guardian your Maximum Water Loss is: Leaky flapper =1 gal Stuck Open Flapper = 10 gal Stuck Fill Valve = ½ gal. Bowl Overflow = 8 gal. * *0 gallons if optional bowl sensor used !!

  26. Toilet Guardian Features Ceramic disc with 500,000 plus cycles and more than 20 years (est.) valve life. 5 year plus (replaceable) battery life. Audible alerts. Visual problem identification. Water shut off for: Leak Detection (flapper and fill valve). Stuck Flapper Bowl Overflow (optional) Programmable (user determined audible and water shut-off changes for identified problems).

  27. The Toilet Guardian System Tank Water Level Sensor Detects leaks and sends a shut off command to the control unit. Bowl Water Level Sensor Detects high water in the bowl and sends a shut off command to the control unit. The Control Unit Ceramic Disc Water Valve. Receives the command and shuts off the water

  28. Did you know… the number one cause of water damage from indoor water appliances is TOILET BOWL OVERFLOWS !!* As much s $2,000,000.000 (2 billion) in damage per year. *Combined statistics from the Institute for Business and Home Safety and the Insurance Industry Institute. http://www.iii.org/media/facts/statsbyissue/homeowners/ http://www.ibhs.org/publications/downloads/20051025_142921_23017.pdf

  29. Did You ALSO Know… A typical water claim (insurance) from a toilet overflow in 1999 cost $3,527.66. That same claim today costs $36,397.99. 1 Google ’Lenny Kravitz’” and ‘overflow’ to see a 1 million dollar claim. http://pifc.org/insurance_manual/mold_highcost.html

  30. The Facts Escalating claims and rising cost of mold-related claims threatens to paralyze California 's fragile homeowners insurance market. Uncertainty and fear of multi-million dollar lawsuits has forced insurance companies to spend on average six times more to remediate water-related claims.1 http://www.pifc.org/insurance_manual/mold_highcost.html

  31. This means insurance companies are more likely to offer incentives to those property owners who install leak and flood detection and prevention devices..

  32. And finally, did you also know… With the simple addition of the Toilet Guardian Bowl Overflow Sensor, OVERFLOWS ARE ELIMINATED. No water hits the floor!!

  33. Toilet Guardianby AquaOne Technologies Alerts and stops the flow of water due to: Leaky flappers Leaky tanks Stuck flappers Stuck fill valves Bowl overflows

  34. Installs in less than 10 minutes. Easily resets. Alerts when battery is low. Shuts off the water if accidently. disconnected. Icons identify the problem.

  35. Payback Probably starts the first day you install and Continues for Decades !

  36. Payback ALL the statistics and studies find the 5% of total household water use is due to leaky flappers. So to calculate your payback, take one months water (and sewer) bill times 5% times 12 and THAT is your MINIMUM payback time in years. And that’s only if you have great water quality, change your flappers yearly and have only the smallest of leaks and have never jiggled the handle even once !!!

  37. Not installing a Toilet Guardian because your toilet never leaks or overflows is like not having car insurance because you never had an accident. But then…….

  38. Conserve, contain, complete.
