In Sherwood, Oregon, where eco-conscious values meet small-town charm, your home’s plumbing can play a big role in reducing water waste and energy use.

1. Install Low-Flow Fixtures
Modern low-flow showerheads, faucets, and toilets use up to 60% less water without sacrificing performance.

2. Switch to a Tankless Water Heater
Tankless (on-demand) water heaters heat only when you need hot water—saving both energy and space.
- These systems can be 24%–34% more energy-efficient for homes that use <41 gallons of hot water daily
Looking for expert installation? Trust the certified pros at Einstein Pros Sherwood to get it done right.
3. Upgrade to a Greywater Recycling System
Greywater systems reuse water from showers, sinks, and washing machines for irrigation or toilet flushing.
- This can cut your outdoor water use by 30%–50%, especially valuable during Sherwood’s drier summers.
Ask about custom solutions through Einstein Pros Sherwood—they can help assess your home’s greywater potential.
4. Use Smart Leak Detectors
Leaks can waste thousands of gallons before you even notice. Smart detectors monitor usage and alert you to unusual activity.
- Systems like Flo by Moen or Phyn can detect leaks early, reducing water damage and waste.

- It also protects your plumbing and appliances from mineral buildup.
