The RFEC <br />has continued to. use this tailet in un-gaing water efficiency effarts because of this 'good track <br />record. , ' <br /> <br />ShoweJ;heads and Aeraton <br />The program used the Spa 2001 and Spa 2001-S far all showerhead installatians. We selected <br />this shuwerhead because af its full, pulsating spray and the lifetime na-elag guarantee. The only <br />complaints we heard were that it was to.o strong for ane family with children, and one household <br />felt it WI\S tau nuisy. Over 95% ofparticipanl~ liked the quality afthe shawer and felt it was a <br />big impravement aver their former shawerhead. <br /> <br />We used faucet aerators that had a "shut-off' that could reduce the naw to. a minimum by <br />flicking it up. There were no complaints about this product. <br /> <br />P ARTICIP A nON AND MONITORED SAVINGS <br /> <br />Participation <br />A total of98 monito/'ed househulds installed 103 toilets, 96 showerheads and 199 faucet aerators; <br />50 af the houscholds are in Carbondale and 48 are in Olenwood Springs.

Such prablems arase in house's with <br />broken meters ar which are nut served by municipal utilities. ilecause of the lack 0.1' manitaring <br />data, these houses do nat appear in any of the tables. <br /> <br />85 of the 98 monitored households opted to install a tailet. Only 11 hauseholds received Plan <br />One (aerators & showerheads). Only three househalds receiv((d Plan Two. (tailet tlappers). ' <br />These three househalds arc lacated at 174 & 178 Garfield in Carbandale IlI1d at 1018 Grand <br />Avenue in Glenwaad Springs.
