World Plumbing Day 2015: 3 Reasons Plumbing is Important to Us

World Plumbing Day is less about celebrating our pipes, toilets and sinks, and more about celebrating the plumbing industry and how it's innovations have allowed our communities to grow and live out healthy and sustainable lives. Whether you have already upgraded to water-efficient plumbing fixtures or not, the technology is there and available - which is something to celebrate.

Water efficiency = energy savings. The connection between energy and water is often overlooked, yet such an important relationship to understand. The less water we use, the less water we need to heat, which enables us to save in multiple facets of our home living costs. 

Plumbing brings comfort into our lives. We often forget to be grateful for the lifestyle plumbing provides. Developing countries without access to clean water are missing one major system and that system is plumbing. From edible meals to soothing baths, we wouldn't be able to enjoy the luxuries we do without plumbing. 

It has extended our life expectancy. It's true - more than any other medical advancement, drinkable water has directly lead to longer lives. Without it, we would have increased exposure to deadly and life threatening diseases.
