American Standard Brands Adopts Two Metro Atlanta Communities for Water-Efficiency Test
American Standard Brands is on a mission to help metropolitan Atlanta find solutions to its water woes. Partnering with Tommy Linstroth, American Standard is retrofitting 20 homes in two neighborhoods with the latest in high-efficiency plumbing fixtures to measure both water savings and user satisfaction.
At Serenbe, where American Standard is retrofitting nine homes for water efficiency.
Working with Nick Marine, Georgia’s first licensed GreenPlumber®, American Standard identified volunteers in the Serenbe community in Palmetto, GA and in Chastain Lakes in Kennesaw, GA to upgrade to WaterSense®-certified toilets and bathroom faucets that save at least 20 percent more water than current building codes require. Showerheads are being replaced with models that save 20 to 40 percent more than current standards.
