Description: 

The AQUS system is compatible with most two piece toilets that use a gravity pilot fill valve (example Fluidmaster 400A): **Please download “list of compatible” toilets at bottom of page **In homes across the U.S., the bathroom accounts for 74 percent of water used. About 5 percent of all domestic water consumption runs from the lavatory faucet in the sink, and eventually into the sewer. About 40 percent of all domestic water consumed is used to flush toilets. Simple to install, AQUS® uses water from bathroom sinks to flush toilets. AQUS® can help individual households, hotels, schools, commercial buildings, government structures and multi-family complexes save gallons of water and dollars. AQUS® can reduce metered water usage in a two-person household by about 10–20 gallons a day – or approximately 5,000 gallons a year. In addition to conserving water AQUS® helps save money in reduced water consumption charges and wastewater treatment or sewer fees. Simple to use, easy to install Tucked inside the vanity below the sink, the AQUS® reservoir works in conjunction with standard lavatory pipes and holds up to 5 ½ gallons of water from the sink. Inside the toilet tank, the AQUS® fill control unit keeps fresh water from filling the tank by holding the ball cock in the off position. That allows water held in the reservoir under the sink to fill the toilet tank. A water hose connects the reservoir to the fill control unit, using gravity, water pressure and a small electrical pump to move water from the vanity to the toilet. AQUS® comes with all the parts needed and takes one to two hours to install.  Filtering and safety A filter keeps hair and other solids from entering the toilet. Disinfection tablets control bacteria and other contaminants. Reused water in the toilet is not harmful to people or pets. Saving water saves money According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Water, more than 4.8 billion gallons of water is flushed down U.S. toilets each day. The American Water Works Association estimates that if water–saving features were installed in every U.S. household, water use would decrease by 30 percent. That would reduce daily water used by about 5.4 billion gallons, resulting in $113 million dollar–volume savings a day.
