Green Plumbing Service in Lyons, Oregon

At Proline Plumbing & Sewer, we offer solutions that reduce water and energy use while minimizing environmental impact, without sacrificing plumbing performance. We help our customers apply sustainable technologies and eco-friendly practices that conserve resources, cut utility costs, and support long-term environmental goals.

Water Conservation Assessments

Water conservation analyses are the foundation of effective green plumbing. Our technicians evaluate the customer's standard water usage, fixture efficiency, system losses, and behaviors to identify targeted improvements ranked by savings potential, cost, and ROI. Our thorough assessment ensures smart, property-specific upgrades for both your home and business.

Low-flow Fixtures

Low-flow fixtures, like those offered by Delta, are a simple and highly impactful upgrade that can be utilized. Our technicians replace standard faucets, shower heads, and toilets with more efficient models that cut water use by 30–70% using aerators, flow regulators, and precision flushing systems—without affecting user experience. Proper installation is important to ensure proper performance.

Tankless Water Heaters

Tankless water heaters are another great option that can be integrated into your home or business. Tankless water heaters heat water only on demand, reducing energy use and standby loss. It is important to hire a professional plumber to perform the proper venting, electrical work, and to help determine the proper unit size and unit location when installing. Many people prefer tankless units to their standard tank counterparts for their space-saving ability. For more information on selecting the best water heater for you, visit our blog.

Solar Water Heating Systems

Solar water heating systems use roof-mounted collectors to harness solar energy, backed by traditional heaters for cloudy days. Our plumbers design systems for optimal sun exposure, freeze protection, and storage capacity—cutting energy use for one of the largest household needs.

Greywater Recycling Systems

Greywater recycling systems, such as ones offered by Hydraloop, reuse water from showers, sinks, and washers for irrigation or toilet flushing. Proper filtration, storage, and labeling ensure safety and reliability. These systems cut fresh water use by up to 50% and reduce wastewater output.

Rainwater Harvesting

Rainwater harvesting collects roof runoff for non-potable uses like irrigation or toilets. Professional plumbing systems include first-flush diverters, filtration, cisterns, and pumps—reducing demand on municipal water and supporting use during droughts. Innovative Water Solutions offers both residential and commercial rainwater harvesting solutions.

Smart Water Management

Smart water management technologies use sensors, leak detectors, and automation to monitor usage, detect waste, and inform conservation decisions. Our licensed plumbers install flow monitors, wireless systems, and home automation tools, such as those sold by Rachio, to reduce waste and support smarter water use.

Hot Water Recirculation Systems

Hot water recirculation systems eliminate waste while waiting for hot water by using return lines or valves. Proper pumps, controls, and insulation save hundreds of gallons annually and improve convenience. You can find a wide selection of recirculating pumps at your local Home Depot or Lowe's supply stores.

Pressure Reduction Systems

Pressure reduction systems use whole-house regulators to lower flow and extend system life. Our licensed plumbers ensure correct sizing, fire suppression bypasses, and monitoring—reducing consumption and stress on plumbing. You can learn more about pressure-reducing methods by reading this pressure reducing guide provided by Aalbert's Manufacturing.

Eco-friendly Water Treatment

Eco-friendly water treatment replaces salt-based softeners with systems like TAC, magnetic, or electronic descalers. These reduce scaling without chemicals or waste. Our technicians assess water chemistry, install filtration systems, and monitor performance.

Fixture Retrofitting

Fixture retrofitting adds conservation features to existing fixtures. Aerators, flow restrictors, displacement devices, and sensors improve efficiency without replacement—preserving design while boosting savings.

Drip Irrigation Systems

Drip irrigation systems target plant root zones, minimizing overspray and evaporation. Our seasoned plumbers select the proper emitters, regulate pressure, install filters, and automate controls—cutting landscape water use by up to 70% and improving overall plant health. DripWorks offers a wide range of drip irrigation solutions that can be used both residentially and commercially.

Water Footprint Reduction

Water footprint education empowers owners to understand and reduce their water use. Our technicians offer usage analysis, benchmarking, and practical tips—supporting lasting behavior change alongside physical upgrades. Check out this free water footprint calculator to evaluate your own water usage.

Commercial Green Plumbing

Green commercial plumbing addresses business needs with solutions like touchless fixtures, efficient appliances, and process water reuse. Our plumbers tailor systems to operations while ensuring performance.

LEED Certification

LEED certification support helps projects meet green building standards. Our plumbing technicians implement required systems, track performance, and prepare documentation to support certification goals.

Cost Saving Rebates

Home and business owners who invest in green energy systems or ENERGY STAR® certified appliances and fixtures may qualify for valuable rebates and tax incentives. These programs, often offered by utility companies or government agencies, help offset upfront costs and accelerate the return on investment for choosing more sustainable upgrades.
