Our Water Saving Products
Choose from water flow control devices, leak prevention, and hot-water saving solutions designed to reduce waste without requiring major property changes.
REDUCE SHOWER WATER USE
The Shower Scrooge™ controls how much water flows through the shower. Its tamper-resistant design helps reduce water use without changing the shower experience.
STOP TOILET WATER WASTE
The Toilet Scrooge™ lets water flow to the toilet when someone is using it. After the user leaves, the valve shuts off the water supply, helping stop continuous leaks and wasted water.
SMARTER WATER FLOW CONTROL
The Smart Valve helps manage water flow through your building and reduce unnecessary water costs. It is designed for multifamily and commercial properties.
REDUCE HOT-WATER WASTE
ShowerStop® stops hot water from being wasted while someone waits for the shower to warm up. When the water gets hot, it reduces the flow until the user is ready to shower.

Most Water Scrooge products are easy to install. Some can be installed with basic tools, while the Smart Valve should be installed by a licensed plumber.

CUSTOMER SUCCESS STORIES
See how property owners and managers lowered water costs and improved NOI in our water saving solutions case studies.
The Water Scrooge has a service which reduces water consumption through special devices resulting in reduced water bills and energy savings due to the need to heat fewer gallons of water.
It’s a capital cost that lowers expenses thus increasing cash flow, and Net Operating Income. In my business, a higher NOI increases the value of my property….Thus far, the purchase of the valve has proven to be a very good return on the investment”
We have purchased and installed 12 Smart Valves in our apartment properties over past 6 months. Savings have ranged from 11% to 23%. This is particularly valuable since all of our properties separate sewer charges based upon water consumption . We intend to install in our other buildings by the end of the year.”

conservation solutions, products, installation, and potential savings.
Water saving solutions include products and devices that help reduce unnecessary water use and lower water costs. The Water Scrooge™ offers solutions for controlling shower water flow, preventing continuous toilet water waste, managing building water flow, and reducing hot water waste.
Water flow control devices help manage how much water flows through plumbing fixtures and pipes. Shower flow controllers limit excess water flow, automatic toilet valves control the water supply when bathrooms are unoccupied, and building-level valves help manage water flow through the main water line.
The Water Scrooge™ offers four main water saving products: Shower Scrooge™ controls excess shower water flow, Toilet Scrooge™ helps prevent continuous water waste from running toilets, Smart Valve™ manages water flow at the building's main line, and ShowerStop® reduces water wasted while waiting for the shower to warm up.
The best water-saving products for apartment buildings depend on where water is being wasted. Toilet leak prevention devices help limit waste from running toilets, while shower flow controllers reduce unnecessary water use across units. Building-level smart valves can also help property owners manage water flow and reduce avoidable water costs.
