Implementing water conservation at schools,colleges, and universities offers two-fold benefits; water is saved at the facility, and the students receive practical education and experience on the merits of water conservation. While the savings potential is huge, implementation is sometimes impeded by budgetary restrictions of the schools. When selecting water efficient equipment, it is important to consider durability and tamper resistance wherever students have access to the fixtures, equipment and appliances. The common water conserving opportunities are as follows: toilets, urinals, showers, faucets, irrigation, cooling towers, reclaimed water, storm water collection and use, food preparation, clothes washer, x-ray machines, steam sterilizers, and water brooms.
