Custom Greywater Systems
If you want to take water conservation to the next level, Bonney also offers custom greywater systems. Greywater systems repurpose water from laundry, showers, and sinks for gardening or landscaping instead of washing it into your sewer system. These installations are perfect for homes on a raised foundation. Greywater systems are not a “quick and easy” solution, as they are engineered specifically for your home by our professionals, but they offer serious savings and environmental conservation. They could also raise the retail value of your home and improve its appeal to other eco-friendly residents of the greater Sacramento area.
Water Conservation Inspection FAQs
What exactly is included in a water conservation inspection?
Bonney’s water conservation inspection involves a comprehensive evaluation of your home’s plumbing system, including fixtures, pipes, and irrigation, to identify leaks and inefficiencies. Their licensed plumbers will inspect toilets, faucets, showers, water pressure valves, and meter systems to pinpoint where water — and money — is being wasted. From low-flow upgrades to hidden leaks, the goal is to reduce water usage and utility costs while protecting local resources.
How much can I save by fixing household leaks?
Water leaks in a typical household can waste over 10,000 gallons annually, enough for around 270 loads of laundry. Even a small dripping faucet can use 30 to 50 gallons a day, but repairing leaks or installing aerators can reduce your water bill by around 10%, with savings reflected immediately. These simple fixes not only conserve water but also lower your utility costs.
What measures can Bonney install to improve water efficiency?
Beyond leak repairs, Bonney offers a range of upgrades, including low-flow showerheads and faucets, aerators, high-efficiency toilets, and even custom greywater systems that reuse grey water for landscaping. These solutions are tailored based on your household needs and local regulations, helping you save water and potentially qualify for rebates and incentives .
Are greywater systems worth the investment?
Greywater systems are a premium solution that repurposes gently used water from sinks, showers, and laundry to irrigate gardens or lawns. Designed and installed specifically for your home, these systems significantly reduce potable water consumption and can increase property value, especially in drought-prone areas. While they require more engineering and upfront investment, the long-term environmental and financial benefits can be substantial.
Why is water conservation important beyond lowering my bill?
Efficient water use supports the health of local ecosystems, especially in California, where droughts are common, and reduces strain on municipal water systems. By conserving water at home, you’re helping sustain rivers, groundwater, and wildlife habitats. Coupled with Bonney’s solutions, your household can contribute to broader environmental resilience while enjoying improved plumbing performance.
