Green Buildings
Green building is the practice of increasing the
efficiency with which buildings use resources —
energy, water, and materials — while reducing
building impacts on human health and the
environment, through better site, design,
construction, operation, maintenance, and removal.

Use of water saving sanitary appliances contd: Use of water saving sanitary appliances contd:
Flow Reduction Devices and Appliances • The greatest savings on kitchen and bathroom faucets comes
Faucet aerators
from proper operation. Do not leave the faucet running when
washing, shaving, brushing teeth, or washing dishes. This one
precaution can save five or 10 times the water of an efficient
faucet or aerator alone.
•Faucet aerators mix air and water as the water leaves the spout.
• They reduce both the flow rate and splashing, while increasing areas
of coverage and wetting efficiency. This conserves water and improves
faucet performance at the same time.
• Aerators will not reduce the amount of water needed to fill a sink or
water jug, but will reduce the amount of water needed for a thorough73 74
rinsing.
