Inexpensively convert your existing toilet into an efficient Dual-Flush toilet.
According to the EPA's WaterSense website, toilets account for nearly 30% of residential indoor water consumption. Replacing an entire toilet with a new high efficiency model would be great for water conservation. But for many of us the idea of throwing out an otherwise fully-functional toilet that cannot be recycled is not a model for sustainability.
Enter the new Dual-Flush Conversion systems available from Sustain Dane! This conversion kits work with your existing tank and bowl to turn your current toilet into a highly-efficient dual flush model.
-- Dual Flush Handle Kit with self-installation instructions for $55

Trying to Get a Handle on Water Conservation?
The Dual Flush Handle Conversion kit features a tower flush valve connected via a sturdy wire to a brushed, silver-tone handle. The dual flush handle replaces the existing handle on your toilet; no permanent modification of your tank is necessary.
The handle hangs vertically, as in the picture to the right. For a full flush, the handle is turned counter-clockwise. For a half flush, the handle is turned clockwise. A lightly etched diagram on the top of the handle provides the user with cues on how to flush.
"I am extremely happy with the dual flush conversion kit I purchased through Sustain Dane. It was a fair price and I had no trouble installing it myself. The half flush uses less than half the water of a full flush. Everyone that comes to my house asks where I got it because they want one for their house. This is a fantastic way of cutting our water consumption without purchasing an expensive new toilet." - Chris P.
