A Mecon Water Saver is a device developed to save and conserve one of our most important natural resources - WATER - the device is fitted in a toilet cistern. It is easy to install, easy to operate, no plumbing is required and can be fitted on both older and newer type toilets.
FYI
1/3 of all water used in the home is used for flushing the toilet.
The average household uses 270L(60 gallons) each day.
Some older toilets use 18L (4 gallons) of water to flush the toilet.
Thanks to this new invention it is no longer necessary to undertake the very expensive replacement of the complete toilet to reduce water consumption.
In fact the Mecon retro-fitting of the existing toilet is about 20 times more cost effective than replacing the complete toilet.
F.A.Q.
How is the Water Saver fitter?
The device is simply fitted by lifting the lid of the cistern, drilling a small hole in the siphon and fitting the unit. No plumbing is required. Not even the water has to be turned off. Fitted in less than 5 minutes.
Why install a Mecon?
Reduce water usage in your toilet by 50% (17% of household water) and save money.
How is the Water Saver used?
When the toilet is flushed, the user simply presses a button to stop the flush when the toilet bowl is cleared.
What saving can be achieved?
Based on UK Water Facts data, fitting a Mecon Water Saver is 10 times more cost effective than installing water meters, which reduce consumption by 10%.
A study carried out on the Isle of Wight where water meters were fitted in 50,000 properties as part of the National Metering Trials in England, showed that demand was reduced by 10%.
What is the Life of a Water Saver?
The unit is designed and tested to last the life of the toilet.
What Maintenance is required?
There is no maintenance required, no bills, no refills, no cartridges etc. to be fitted during the life of the unit.
Do you have problems with you Septic Tank?
Septic tank problems are often caused by poor soakage of water leaving the septic tank rather than a breakdown of the bacteriological activity in the tank. In areas where soakage is poor, or in wet conditions when the water table is high, reducing the amount of water entering the septic tank by 17% will obviously reduce the problem.
Is there a water supply problem in you area?
In periods of drought, many schemes experience water shortages. By reducing the demand by 17%, there is more water available.
