Water saving device
May 1st 2010 Inventor of the Saver-Siphon water
saving device, David Wilks, has been
awarded £25,000 by CO2Sense
Yorkshire, a business support and
market development programme
funded by Yorkshire Forward and the
European Regional Development
Fund. The investment will help in the
manufacture and
development of the
Saver-Siphon for
distribution via a
major DIY retailer.
The device is
claimed to have the
potential to save
billions of litres of
clean water from
being wasted. Toilets fitted with the
Saver-Siphon only flush when the
handle is held down – cutting water
consumption by about half. For
houses with water meters, the Saver-
Siphon, which will retail for about
£20, has the potential to cut
household water bills by about 20%. |
