You can always count on the Tucson City Council for a good laugh. Today’s snort? A rebate program to replace that old toilet. Yes, that’s right its the Cash for Crappers program. Read on my friends…
Is your toilet a clunker?
Well, if it was made before 1991 and uses more than 3ƒ gallons per flush, then you’ve got a clunker.
And Tucson Water wants you to get rid of it. The utility is offering to pay half the cost of high-efficiency toilets for its customers to get rid of the water-wasting potties. The high-efficiency toilets use less than 1.3 gallons per flush. Mind you, these are not to be confused with low-flow toilets, which use about 1.6 gallons per flush.
