This label is similar to EPA&rsquo;s <a href="http://www.energystar.gov/">Energy Star</a> label.</p><p>WaterSense labeled <a href="http://epa.gov/watersense/products/index.html">products</a> use about 20% less water than similar products and perform as well or better than their less efficient counterparts.</p><p>Currently, the WaterSense program includes <a href="http://epa.gov/watersense/products/bathroom_sink_faucets.html">bathroom faucets</a>, <a href="http://www.epa.gov/watersense/products/showerheads.html">showerheads</a>, high efficiency <a href="http://epa.gov/watersense/products/toilets.html">toilets</a>, <a href="http://epa.gov/watersense/products/urinals.html">urinals</a>, and <a href="http://epa.gov/watersense/products/controltech.html">landscape irrigation controllers</a>.
