FAQs
What types of water-saving fixtures can you install in my Kingston home?
We supply and install a full range of WaterSense-certified and high-efficiency fixtures, including low-flow or dual-flush toilets, pressure-balanced shower valves with 1.5–1.8 gpm showerheads, faucet aerators that reduce flow to 1.2 gpm or less, touchless kitchen and lavatory faucets, and high-efficiency urinals for commercial sites. If you’re also upgrading appliances, we can connect new ENERGY STAR dishwashers and clothes washers so the entire plumbing system works together for maximum water savings.
How much water and money can I expect to save by upgrading?
Savings vary by fixture, but most Kingston homeowners reduce indoor water use by 25–40 %. A standard 13-L toilet replaced with a 4.8-L model saves roughly 20 000 L of water per person per year—about $60 on the average utility bill. Swapping a 2.5 gpm showerhead for a 1.8 gpm unit can save another 11 000 L annually, and every faucet aerator adds 500–800 L in yearly savings. When several fixtures are upgraded at once, many customers see payback in as little as two years.
Will low-flow fixtures reduce my water pressure or shower experience?
Modern water-saving products are engineered to deliver the same or better performance than older, high-flow models. Toilets use redesigned bowls and wider trapways for powerful flushes at lower volumes, while showerheads rely on air-induction and pressure-compensating spray plates to maintain a strong, consistent stream. When installed correctly and matched to your home’s pressure, you should not notice a drop in performance—only a drop in consumption.
Are there rebates or incentives available in Kingston for water-efficient plumbing upgrades?
Yes. Utilities Kingston periodically offers rebates on WaterSense toilets, low-flow showerheads, and rain barrels. Additional provincial or federal programs may cover part of the cost for multi-residential or commercial properties. Our office keeps an up-to-date list of active incentives, provides all necessary documentation, and will even submit the rebate paperwork on your behalf to ensure you receive the maximum available refund.
How long does a typical fixture replacement take, and will my water be shut off?
Most single-fixture swaps—such as a toilet, faucet, or showerhead—take 60–90 minutes. We isolate each fixture’s shut-off valve so the rest of your house keeps running water. For whole-bathroom or multi-fixture projects, we schedule work in phases to minimize downtime, and complete most full-room upgrades in one day. You’ll receive a detailed time estimate and preparation checklist before we arrive.
What should I consider before scheduling a water-saving fixture replacement?
Start by listing the fixtures that use the most water or cause the most trouble. Check your home’s water pressure (40–60 psi is ideal) and the rough-in dimensions of existing toilets, faucets, and valves. Decide on finishes and any additional accessibility or smart-home features you’d like. Finally, confirm your budget, available rebates, and preferred installation date. We offer free on-site assessments throughout Kingston to verify compatibility and provide a fixed-price quote.
