WaterSense Our Water Use Landing

Our Water tells the story of how we use water from nation's lakes, rivers, and groundwater aquifers, and why it's important to be smarter about how we use it. We'll show you the value of water efficiency and how we can all get more by using less. Reliable and innovative WaterSense labeled products, plus a little "water sense" of your own will get you started down the road to saving water.
