The Third International Emerging Technology Symposium by IAPMO and the World Plumbing Council features a session on water efficiency.
This presentation will look at the plumbing products that have had the biggest impact on water demands, as well as highly touted products that the presenter believes will ultimately fail to deliver.
The talk will also touch on the impact lower demands may have on waste carried through drains and sewers, on water agency revenues, on municipal water efficiency plans, and on future WaterSense standards.
The event will be held May 1-2 in Bethesda, Md.
