2 save water cube monthly single action. Master OK

Look for smarter ways of consumption of gas, electricity and water is becoming a necessity, therefore, constantly watching and looking for where and how you can save a little. Even not so much a one-time reduction in water consumption, based on the months gives a decent coin bonus.

Do you think about how much water is poured from a tank at a time?

And you know that the amount of drain water can be changed at will?

I will not touch all the places where the water flows in the apartment, but I will pay attention only to the toilet, or rather on the work setting drain mechanism.

Consider that on average we use the toilet 6-7 times a day. If four households, the saving on each sink 2 liters (can be more), water consumption per day in an apartment will decrease by approximately 50-60 liters! And this month the figure rises to almost 2 cubes. Here's a quick calculation:

6-7l x 4 people. = 24-28 times - the number of visits to the toilet all the family members a day.
24-28 x 2 liters = 48-56 liters - saving family volume per day.
48-56 x 31 days = 1,5-1,73 cube. m - savings per month.

The inlet mechanism with bottom tank. Red adjusting screw and thread.

When we buy a toilet cistern, it fittings initially set to the maximum filling level with water. And if the plumber during the installation does not change anything, so consumption will remain the same for the rest of the life of the discharge mechanism.

As a rule, water flows from the discharge more than necessary. And if the plastic adjusting screw slightly unscrewed from the threaded intake mechanism (it is always the side), The level of the float that blocks the water after filling the tank, decreases. Because of this, a set of water stops earlier than usual. So it is possible to reduce the amount dialed in the water tank for a few liters.

And it is fitting for a tank with a side connection. adjusting screw and red

If you overdo it, and unscrew the screw too much,
water in the tank will be small and you have to press the button twice, it will not save, and cost overruns.

Note the position of the adjustment screw is always vertical, but attached to the mechanism of how it can be the upper end and the lower, and located on the side of the float or go inside it. It all depends on the model. It can be identified by the presence of the thread. Color is also different in the different tanks of red, blue, white, and others.

In the video, I show how to adjust the screw to the upper bracket, located in the middle of the tank.
