The plumbing industry is continuously advancing, driven by innovations that enhance efficiency, safety, and environmental sustainability. In North Texas, plumbing professionals are embracing these technological advancements to offer homeowners smarter, more reliable solutions. Below are some of the latest technology trends that can improve your plumbing system and help reduce water bills.
1. Smart, High-Efficiency Toilets/Bidets
These advanced systems provide automatic flushing toilets, heated seats, self-cleaning, and touchless controls while reducing water consumption. Smart toilets enhance hygiene and convenience and help conserve water by optimizing flushing mechanisms. They are ideal for homeowners aiming to implement solutions that reduce water waste and lower water bills. However, additional work may be needed for installation if you purchase a smart toilet.
2. Automatic Emergency Shut-Off Valves
Sensor technology has made it easier to locate leaks before they cause major damage. These sensors, installed in high-risk areas, send real-time alerts to connected devices and automatically shut off valves, preventing significant water loss. This innovative technology enhances water efficiency and reduces costly repairs without you even lifting a finger.
3. Touchless Faucets
Touchless faucets have become increasingly popular in both residential and commercial settings. Infrared sensors allow water to flow without physically touching the fixture, helping to prevent the spread of germs. These plumbing fixtures also support environmental sustainability by conserving water through motion-activated controls, making them ideal for eco-conscious homeowners.
4. Tankless Water Heaters
Tankless water heaters heat water on demand, eliminating the need for a storage tank and saving energy. This plumbing system provides a continuous hot water supply while reducing standby heat loss, resulting in significant cost savings on energy bills. These systems are space-efficient, making them ideal for homes with limited space. Please note our Reliance water heaters do not offer Wi-Fi connectivity; only certain brands and styles offer this feature.
5. Trenchless Plumbing Systems
Trenchless plumbing is a less invasive method of repairing or replacing underground pipes, requiring minimal digging. This technique preserves landscapes and existing structures by accessing damaged pipes through small entry points, making it a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution for major plumbing issues.
