Bathroom Remodeling<\/a> |\u00a0Though you can start your green remodeling in any room, you should definitely think in the bathroom as the best way to kick it off. There are lots of waste there and the constant cleaning needed to keep it spotless turns it into a toxin-filled chemical fest \u00a0so, which place\u2019s better to get your home remodeling going? With just a few smart changes you can turn your current bathroom into an eco-friendly retreat that will put you on the right track. Here are the tips!<\/p>\n1 \u2013 Invest and fix to save water<\/h5>\n
The first step you should consider is trying to reduce the amount of water you use in the bathroom. There are some simple things you surely already know that can help you with that \u2013 taking shorter showers, turning off the water while you brush your teeth. But apart from that, you should also think about installing low-flow shower heads and aerators in \u00a0your faucets. Additionally, you should always be on the watch for leaky faucets since a leak that drips once per second can waste up to 3,000 gallons a year.<\/p>\n
2 \u2013 Replace your toilet<\/h5>\n
Just like you invested in a low-flow shower head, you should do the same with your toilet. A high-efficiency toilet can cut the amount of water you use with each flush by half. It can also save you some bucks each year! Don\u2019t have enough money to change your toilet? Retrofit the one you already own by installing a controllable flush handle and put pebbles in your tank to limit the amount of water it uses each time it gets filled.<\/p>\n
3 \u2013 Ventilate it<\/h5>\n
Windows, exhaust vents and fans are a must for any bathroom looking to turn the green up. They all ensure that the bathroom is ventilated and they get rid of that nasty mold-causing humidity. Without that moisture, mold won\u2019t grow and you won\u2019t have to use that much chemicals to keep your bathroom clean. You\u2019ll enjoy a better air quality! Additionally, you can also buy some plants to absorb the pollutants and give a nice natural touch to it all.<\/p>\n
4 \u2013 Use as much green products as you can<\/h5>\n
Toilet paper, shower curtains, mats and cleaning products are some of the things you use in your bathroom that have amazing green alternatives. If you can\u2019t change them all, then at least consider using recycled toilet paper and homemade cleaning products. This will drastically reduce the amount of waste and pollution you generate in your bathroom \u2013 and you\u2019ll get the same results as with the regular options. Try it!<\/p>\n
5 \u2013 Go ceramic<\/h5>\n
Ceramic tiling is one of the preferred options by a lot of people \u2013 and for a good reason. Ceramic is resistant to moisture and some of it is manufactured through an eco-friendly process. In fact, some of the ceramic tiles available in the market are made with recycled materials, which means that you won\u2019t only enjoy the benefits of ceramic in your bathroom but that you\u2019ll also be lending a helping hand to our environment in the process. Be sure to research the alternatives out there!<\/p>\n
As you can see, 5 simple tips like these can really make a huge change in your bathroom. You don\u2019t have to completely remodel it to turn it green \u2013 you just have to make the right choices and you\u2019ll enjoy a great green bathroom!\u00a0<\/span>–\u00a0Treeium<\/em><\/p>\nInterested in starting a bathroom\u00a0remodeling project?\u00a0Contact Medina Exteriors<\/a>\u00a0today, (330)591-4040<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bathroom Remodeling | 5 Simple Ideas to Green Up Your Bathroom Bathroom Remodeling |\u00a0Though you can start your green remodeling […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":4333,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1021,1022,1024],"tags":[1023],"class_list":["post-22041","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bathroom-remodel","category-bathroom-remodel-trends","category-bathroom-remodeling","tag-bathroom-remodeling"],"yoast_head":"\n
