Replace Your Old-Fashioned Plumbing Now!

If you haven’t replaced that pre-1993 toilet with a low-flow model, now is the time. Plumbing retrofits can save 50-70% of a toilet’s use and save you money as well. On top of those savings, retrofit incentive programs are now in many metro Atlanta cities and counties.

Metro Atlanta residents interested in applying for a rebate for replacing their low-flow toilets should go to www.northgeorgiawater.com or call 404-463-8645 for more information and to find out what’s available in your area. Dekalb County residents should go to www.dekalbwatershed.com for information on its toilet retrofit rebate program.
