i may not be able to open posts from my notes or messages or get more context on posts via looking at the notes, but at least i can make fucked up coffee properly now
#toy txt post#while i was away i began my journey into coffee snobbery. im doing my best. i have a lot to learn#i have a fancy hand grinder that all the ppl on reddit hemmedvand hawed andaid it would probably be somewhat#Acceptable for pour over coffee that I got for less than $100. i want you to understand the coffee grinder ppl are insane.#there are grinders for sale that cost like more than my car did brand new. these ppl are insane? i got a chemex pour over#and a glass stovetop gooseneck kettle cos i couldnt find an electric kettle that didnt have the metal touching the water. prolly cos it#would make them less energy efficient and defeat the purpose but i dont fuck w metal water vessels cos historically They Keep Betraying Me#by making my drinks taste like ass. i got some genetic fuckery going on ig. like the cilantro soap gene but its the metal makes water taste#like ass gene? idk. but i wanted a kettle that didnt have metal and i wanted that gooseneck pour so i found one on Amazon. surprisingly#hard to find? annoying. mostly bc every search engine is bad and kept showing me metal kettles anyway. i got a grinder i got a pour over i#got a kettle i got fancy beans from a local small business i started drinking it black. im going to unlock these flavors. i will get it#but also. im still a goblin. i put garlic powder in with the grounds and made garlic coffee. its interesting. it tastes like garlic. and#coffee. but actually the garlic is mostly an aftertaste?#so it feels very similar to drinking a cup of black coffee to accompany your garlic bread actually. the first time i made it i think it#underextracted the coffee tho. second time i extracted the coffee enough but i didnt like it as much? both times. fascinatingly#i did not get strong aromas! which was weird: i find both garlic and coffee have pretty strong scents already#i wouldve thought combining them would make it stronger? it was a little stronger while brewing the second time but smelled good to me#i find the flavor of it compelling enough that id like to try to refine it a bit more and see if i can make it good#ive come a long way since my first garlic coffee haha#(adding garlic salt to black coffee out of a keurig. dont reccomend this: garlic salt has too much salt and it overpowers everything.#could not get a garlic flavor without overpowering salt flavors. so it mostly tasted like seawater with a hint of coffee. garlic powder is#the way to go. anyway next i want to try it with a lighter roast. i was using medium roast#of a local brand that i would name for exposure but wont name lest it doxxes me haha#also want to try egg coffee sometimes? the vietnamese one. looks..intriguing. robusta beans scare me a little tho#anyway. if youre interested in interesting flavors i recc garlic coffee. it was intriguing. if i find a methodology i think tastes best#ill update yall#im also interested in other things. i want to experiment with spicy coffee. chili powder or cayenne#make the paprika dracula coffee haha#im also admittedly intrigued by butter coffee? as a flavor profile tho not for fad diet reasons.

never had an air fryer or a panini press, but I endorse the rest. I’m never going back to cooking rice on the stove if I can avoid it. And oh dear god offbrand trash bags…
Kitchen appliances I would recommend purchasing when moving out on your own:
Air fryer
One of those panini press grill things (not only can you make sandwiches but you can grill chicken and steak if you have an expensive model)
Rice cooker (not only good for rice but quinoa and any other grain, alternatively you could buy an Instapot)
Electric kettle (depends on how much tea you drink but it’s good for boiling water for cleaning and preheating water for pasta etc)
Kitchen appliances I would not recommend buying when you move out on your own:
Counter top coffee maker (you should not be drinking an entire pot of coffee on your own and it will be stale by the time you get to the bottom, plus these bitches suck to clean, Keurigs, French presses and stove top percolators where you make one or two cups at a time are more practical for a single person)

TABATA WORKOUT ( Part 1 )
Tabata training, a sort of HIIT activity, is said to be one of the most effective ways to burn fat while improving overall health and fitness in as little as 4 minutes! With more and more members, particularly Tabata newcomers, asking questions about the Tabata workout and what it entails, we wanted to address some of the most common inquiries.
What Is The Tabata Workout?
Tabata is a type of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) that involves very short, precise periods. All HIIT exercise consists of periods of high-intensity training followed by periods of moderate-intensity or rest, though the times can vary. Each Tabata exercise includes the following:
20 seconds of extremely intense, all-out movement
10 seconds of rest
Repeat 8 times for a total of 4 minutes
Typically, a workout may mix numerous rounds to create a lengthier workout (about 20 minutes) that targets multiple muscle groups and works the cardiovascular system while remaining easy to fit into a busy schedule. A four-minute round could include the same exercise or a variety of activities, such as:
20 seconds of sprinting + 10 seconds rest
20 seconds of push ups + 10 seconds rest
20 seconds of mountain climbers + 10 seconds rest
20 seconds of squat jacks + 10 seconds rest
What Are The Benefits Of A Tabata Workout?
Tabata training provides numerous health and lifestyle benefits. These include (but are not necessarily limited to):
Boosted anaerobic capacity: Anaerobic exercise enhances your body's tolerance to lactic acid, allowing you to work out more efficiently before reaching the lactate threshold. This means you can perform at a higher intensity for longer periods.
Improved aerobic endurance: Aerobic endurance refers to your body's ability to use oxygen to fuel physical exertion. The more efficient you are, the easier it is to exercise, allowing you to push harder and for longer periods.
Fat burning: Tabata and other HIIT workouts push your body to its limits, increasing your heart rate and burning a lot of energy, making them ideal for burning calories (and thus fat). As an anaerobic exercise, it depletes the body's oxygen supplies, and restoring them burns calories long after the session.
Convenience: Tabata workouts may easily fit into even the busiest schedule. There is no need for equipment or a large amount of space; you could even conduct a Tabata workout while waiting for the kettle to boil!
Where Did Tabata Come From?
Tabata originated in Japan and was named after Dr. Izumi Tabata, a professor at Ritsumeikan University. He was employed by the Japanese speed skating team in the 1990s to evaluate the success of their training regimen, which consisted of brief maximal bursts of sprints followed by short rest periods. Dr. Tabata conducted thorough scientific investigations and was able to demonstrate the remarkable benefits of this training approach.
Are Tabata Workouts Effective?
Tabata workouts may sound too wonderful to be true, but they are scientifically proven. Dr. Tabata's study contrasted two groups on a six-week fitness program: one group completed an hour of moderate-intensity exercise on a stationary cycle five times a week (1800 minutes of training), and the other group did high-intensity Tabata-style training four times a week (120 minutes).
While both groups improved their aerobic capacity, the Tabarta group performed significantly better, with a 15% increase in VO2 max (which indicates cardiovascular health and maximal aerobic power) and a 28% increase in anaerobic fitness compared to no improvements in the moderate exercise group. Steady-state, moderate-intensity cardio has benefits and should not be overlooked, but this demonstrates how beneficial short Tabata sessions are!

So @neoncityrain,
I'll being again.
You have probably heard the words "nuclear" reactor at least a couple of times. Many people fear them and don't understand. Some fear them because of that. In the principle nuclear reactors are actually incredibly simple on their own. It's basically a kettle with a turbine that heats using shiny rocks. To be specific about what happens in the process of "fission" (the process of atoms doing the absolutely mental). We fire a neuron, it hits a heavy atom like uranium 238 (238 indicates the number of protons inside the atom, this is important because different amounts of neutrons make different isotopes of the same element. And while some isotopes are stable, some are incredibly radioactive. This is needed to calculate the energy potential.) After the neutron gits the atom, it splits in to two atoms of a lighter elements. For example uranium 235 when split produces either barium and kripton, strontium and xenon or tin and molybdenum. Depending on how it splits. When the atom is split it releases other neutrons, Wich are moving very fast and carry an energy potential. It's also called the neutron temperature. Basically how much kinetic potential it has. Kinetic potential is basically temperature. As movment in atoms is heat. It in itself is important for splitting lighter elements or achieving higher efficiency. But I'll come back to that later.
So basically green rock Magic happens (it's actually emits blue light not green). And it heats a pot of watter Wich we make in to steam and then in to energy.
With the rock Magic done we come to the part of construction. Eich is my favorite as you see there is a lot of concrete metal and vey sturdy stuff in general.
Main concern for people that are afraid of nuclear reactors is another Chernobyl, Fukushima or three mile island.
Wich is a completely valid concern. However they are all human error. Fukushima was built on a shore... with tsunamis.
Chernobyl was managed by my ancestors, Wich they did incredibly porly and did experiments to the reactor that it was not Designed for.
Nuclear reactors altho do have uranium inside of them, just as nuclear bombs. Their are utterly and absolutely Incapable of exploding like one. It's just not as pure and condensed. And it's also not being exploded together. That's just not going to happen.
With today's technology in automatic control units, Materials and stuff, reactors are incredibly unlikely to fail. Unless humans do stupid human stuff. France for example is Europes largest nuclear powerhouse. And it's energy sources are basically carbon neutral. Also the concern of people that radiation will spread and radiate the area is very unfounded. I blame the Simpsons for that fear. Uranium is not a green glowy liquid. It's a metal ish metal, maybe greyish. And you can calmly hold it. It generaly doesn't contaminate watter. And not is it in direct contact with it. It's inside it's heat transfering case. The heat from the uranium case rods is transfers with either watter molten sodium or salt. (It sounds scary but each of them has their own benefits). There is a three loops design usually implemented. The first loop takes heat directly from the uranium. And transfers it via a heat exchanger (a radiator basically) to the second loop. The second loop uses the heated watter to spin the turbines. And then at the end cools it even more with the help of the third loop. The third loop is usually just taking water from a river and spraying it in the air after it took the heat. Those are the huge cooling towers you usually see. It's not smoke or radiation. It's just steam. So you can drink it without problem. Wich I proudly day I did. (it's almost like an iterator)(wait nuclear powered iterator) (a universe where the didn't discover void fluid energy) (holy shit I made something creative)
Nuclear power occupies a very important niech. It can produce A LOT of power on demand. Meaning if suddenly it's a holiday and everyone has decided it is time their ovens on. Renewables won't be able to compensate. As you see, if there is simply no wind or sun. There is nothing you can do. You can build batteries, but litium ion are very expensive and bad for the environment. And batteries that pump watter up so it later can spin generators falling down (usually called a gravity battery) are good and massive. But can't be everywhere.
Nuclear power plants can ramp up their energy production to cover that spike rapidly and efficiently. Making sure your country won't suddenly be low on energy ((KHEM KHEM GERMANY)) in the winter. Because uranium doesn't care for the weather.
Nod for the main part and the most interesting.
NUCLEAR WASTE
I shall repeat again. It's unfortunately not a dlurpee. And it doesn't leak.
Nuclear waste has 3 stages.
Fresh out of the reactor.
This kind needs to be actively cooled, because altho it has much of the useful uranium used up. There is still a little bit of wamrth. It needs to be cooled in a pond for a couple of months.
Tumblr media
That's the cooling pond. It's about a years with I think. Fissile material is incredible energy dense. One kilogram of enriched uranium is enough to power uhhh. A lot of stuff for s long time. The voyager for example has been out there since uhh. A log time. And it's own small littler radio isotope nuclear generator is what keeps it warm and alive.
The second stage is splitting stuff that could be useful,such as enriched uranium. 238 neutrons. It can still be used. And recycled. Wich many do.
The third kind is the bad kind. The stuff thats radioactive enough to be dangerous but not useful. Right now it is stored underground in metal and concrete husks.
This is of course bad. As it accumulates there and isn't useful.
However, there is not that much nuclear waste. It's actually doesn't take up that much space. And in the end you're putting radioactive rocks back were you found them.
HOWEVER
here comes my favorite part.
THERE IS A WAY TO AVOID ALL OF THAT.
it's called fast neutron fission reactors. Those are experimental reactors right now. So there aren't any used actevly. But they posses a very useful trait. They feed using nuclear waste. And guess what it produces as a result ?
NUCLEAR FUEL.
This means it's an infinite energy glitch (not technically. Some of the matter is concerted to energy)
You put nuclear waste of normal reactors, in to fast neutron reactors ( also referd as breeder reactors or fast spectrum reactors) and get fuel back. And we'll 1 Gramm or so of trans uranics (the nasty nuclear waste) per ton. Wich tooooo be fair... it's just a Gramm, just pour it underground it'll be fine. Or keep it in a bottle as a lava lamp.
Altogether, nuclear reactors altho not as simple as burning coal or shining the sun at a panel. Are INCREDIBLY powerful. And are just misunderstood behemoths capable of boosting our civilization past the climate change. Many people fear them, but they shouldn't. They fear the complex, and refuse to learn about it.
Germany should really revisit it's nuclear policy.
Ah and by the way. Most biggest reason why we aren't building more faster is because they are expensive. However. Most of the cost comes from turbines and cooling stuff. The exact same as in coal power plants or gas powerplants. We can just put a kettle of cool rocks in there and get one free powerplant for relatively cheap and no CO2!!
Feel free to ask any questions, I have absolutely no problem with that. Also i apologize for my grammar and typos, I just don't wsnt to correct the entirety of the text. Hopefully I didn't screw something up badly.
Also @eltanin0 you might find this interesting to.
Bonus argument
JUST LOOK HOW BEAUTIFUL IT IS
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Literally rainworld irl
The last two are scientific reactors, nuclear powerplants don't look like this
Oh and a schematic just in case.
Tumblr media
Forgot to mention the control rods, it's just to stop neutrons when you don't need them. It's like graphite or similar. And its safer to be gravity droped so if there is suddenly no power they shutdown the reactor automatically.
Also one of the reasons Chernobyl went boom.
Yeah I'm definitely fucking autistic

Mobile Power Enhances The Wonderful Experience Of Travel
In recent years, with the changes in the concept of outdoor life and the upgrading of outdoor equipment, ascetic outdoor travel has gradually faded away. New ways of outdoor travel have emerged, especially Glamping, (luxury camping), which has become popular on ins recently, and is becoming a popular outdoor trend. If you want to have a wonderful travel experience, mobile power is undoubtedly standard.
Under the influence of this trend, more people hope to enjoy comfortable modern travel while being close to nature. Among the outdoor equipment you bring, the outdoor mobile power supply can best enhance your outdoor travel experience. After all, if you want to enjoy a quality and comfortable life outdoors, you cannot do without electricity.
Tumblr media
With outdoor mobile power supplies, such as car refrigerators, rice cookers, camping lights, projectors, mobile phones, etc. can be used. The outdoor power supply greatly improves the quality of outdoor life, completely getting rid of the ascetic outdoor life.
However, there are many outdoor power supplies on the market today. Many people are at a loss when choosing, mainly because they don't understand outdoor power supply equipment. Therefore, regarding outdoor power supply equipment, I recommend a Powerfar outdoor power supply that can be charged by solar energy.
Beautiful appearance, convenient and easy to carry.
90° rotatable handle, storage integrated to save space, convenient and easy to carry. With reading lights, high-intensity LED professional outdoor long-range lights, SOS emergency signal lights, mainly used indoors and outdoors.
Tumblr media
With an intelligent digital display system, it can monitor voltage, current and temperature changes in real time. Powerfar outdoor power supply can charge DC and AC to meet the needs of various equipment. Equipped with 13 interfaces including AC, DC, USB, Type-C, and car charger, it supports simultaneous power supply for multiple devices.
Various charging methods
Support mobile phone wireless charging, 10W fast charging efficiency increased by 50%, smart charging does not get hot. Type-C bidirectional input and output, rechargeable and dischargeable. PD60W fast charging protocol, suitable for a variety of models, fast charging, full automatic stop.
In addition to charging with traditional 220V, it also supports charging using the car's cigarette lighter. Although the charging in this state is not as fast as charging the Powerfar mobile power supply at home, if you charge while driving while driving, you can achieve long-distance self-driving and charging at the same time.
But the most amazing thing is that Powerfar mobile outdoor power supply also supports solar charging. A-grade monocrystalline silicon solar panels imported from Japan can generate stable power, and the charging time is about 8-15 hours. Even in the uninhabited suburbs, as long as there is sun, with Powerfar mobile power and solar charging panels, the power shortage problem can be easily solved. This way of obtaining power is cleaner and more environmentally friendly.
Seven equipment models to meet various power needs.
Tumblr media
There are 7 models to choose from, choose the power supply device model according to the actual power consumption. They are 7 models of BS100S/BS200A/BS300S/PS300/BS500S/BS700S/BS1000S, with a minimum capacity of 40000mAh and a maximum capacity of 288000mAh. As small as a mobile phone, as large as a kettle/electric hot pot, it will provide you with the necessary "electricity" in modern life at any time!
Experience
Outdoors, when mobile phones, laptops, digital cameras, projectors and other electronic devices are short of power, a Powerfar mobile power supply can meet the power needs of each electronic device. Charging at the same time without interfering with each other.
Tumblr media
If you want to eat delicious outdoors, cook a meal and bring a Powerfar mobile power supply device, which can also meet the power supply needs.
Finally, to sum up, if you don't know how to choose an outdoor mobile power supply, you might as well refer to this article. This article recommends you the Powerfar outdoor mobile power supply, I think it will be very suitable for you, it is convenient and easy to use. More importantly, it allows you to use electricity as conveniently as at home when you are doing outdoor activities. With Powerfar mobile power, it is very convenient to cook in the wild, watch movies, read books, hold parties, etc.

As a Canadian, one of the many baffling and frustrating things about American culture is its failure to embrace the self-evidently superior technology of the 110-volt electric kettle.
Not only are they more energy- and time-efficient than their archaic stovetop counterparts; they are also very affordable, and all but the very cheapest models come with a built-in auto-shutoff.
It activates with the soft click of gentle kitchen-appliance judgement.
I have come up with a better metaphor than “you can’t pour from an empty cup” for burnout. You can’t boil an empty kettle. Pouring from an empty cup just gets you nowhere. Trying to boil an empty kettle can ruin the kettle, the stove, and burn down your house if you keep trying it.

What people said about cutting the corporations out, but some other things really bug me about this.
Actually when I watch it closely, a bunch of things, but I'm just going to mention the two big ones that annoyed me on first viewing.
Tumblr media
This is a bad waterwheel. It seems to be set up as somewhere between a high breastshot and a backshot waterwheel, but those are constructed with scoop/bucket shaped paddles, as they collect the water and the weight of it more than the speed of the flow, is what drives the wheel. Usually only the simplest undershot waterwheels (where the water flows under the wheel only, not entering from higher up) have flat blades like this. Also, those blades are too far apart (look like only 6 of them)(results in jerky movement), and... made of wood? You want thin, lightweight blades, so more of the energy goes to the load (electrical generator in this case, historically the grain mill or whatever), not into moving the weight of the wheel itself. And, even more of an issue than the bad/inefficient design... it is *tiny*. I mean, hard to get a really solid scale, but it looks to me like that thing is maybe 1 to 2 feet in diameter (~30-60 cm). And that's not a rushing, high pressure stream (and if it was and you were relying on that, you would want an undershot type). I have no idea how to attempt to calculate how much energy that would produce, but it's got to be minuscule. Like a couple watts *maybe*? I just can't imagine this being actually worth the effort of building and maintaining it.
The other big thing is the obsession with floating/flying things
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The teapot isn't the only randomly floating thing we see, I think there is another container at the dinner table. What possible reason is there for that? Why would containers randomly float when the don't need to? For the tea kettle it is actively keeping it out of contact with the stove, making it insanely less efficient. Even if you say "maybe it is an induction stove"... that just means the efficiency loss is magnetic, not thermal. It's still going to be enormous.
The drone and the bus as transports make no sense, except perhaps under the most extreme sci-fi conditions. Keeping an object up in the air takes a huge amount of energy. Even if you aren't dealing with the inefficiency of using fans to push air down in order to stay up (hovercraft, helicopters, etc), it's just a bunch of energy that you could choose not to spend, by simply letting it rest on the ground. Airplanes are vastly less efficient than trains, for example. Planes can stack up a bit better against cars, but that is due to cars being quite big, and very often carrying one person and very little or no cargo. As soon as you talk buses or trains, efficiency goes way up.
That flying bus would be far better as an electric bus, or better yet a train/tram of some kind. The drone delivering one small item makes zero sense and wouldn't even it was on wheels instead. The inefficiency of such tiny deliveries would be enormous. If the drone is taking that milk or whatever from the kitchen to the outdoor dining table, just have human walk over and get it. If it bringing it in from a store at some distance, make a trip where get more items at once, and keep enough in stock at the house.
The one way the flying drone and bus *might* make some amount of sense, is if you postulate that we found an energy efficient way to make "negative matter"/"exotic matter". That is not antimatter - we know that antimatter responds to gravity the same as normal matter. Exotic matter is a theoretical type of matter that has an inverse relationship with gravity. So if it exists (and currently there is no evidence at all that it does - it is merely a way you could solve the equations of gravity), it would push away from normal matter e.g. the earth. So you could make things float "for free", or rather, there is just the upfront energy cost of making/acquiring the exotic matter, but no energy is spent in keeping the item floating. But that only works for fixed weights. If you put negative matter on an airship of some kind, it cancels out the weight of the craft, but not the weight of passengers/cargo, so you still have to lift that. If you put enough exotic matter in to cancel the weight of the craft and the cargo/people, then you have to have some way to push or hold it down when not loaded, or it will fly off into space. You could tether it when not flying, but even then, there would be issues if you tried to fly it with only a partial load, you would have to "push down" with energy to equal the mass you are missing from the rated amount. And if you overload it with more mass than the rated amount, you need to push that amount up. It is all very tricky, and airships based on exotic matter would probably end up acting a bit more like zeppelins than airplanes or flying cars or that flying drone.
The impression you really get from this, and many other sci-fi things with flying/floating cars and the like, from The Jetsons to Overwatch, is that the vehicles are dynamically generating some kind of "anti gravity field" or other energy field that in some way pushed them up without moving air to do it. The main way besides anti gravity would be a magnetic field, but that would fuck with any magnetic material in the area, and we never see that. Even *if* physics has anti-gravity fields in practice, and even *if* we found a way to generate them, and even *if* it could be done with great efficiency (all very big "ifs"), it is still power you could save by just letting the damn thing sit on the ground. Oh you want lower rolling resistance? Steel wheel, steel rail. Low rolling resistance! And we've had trains for ages already.

Make Your Life More Convenient with Eco-Friendly Appliances
ServicePlus - Total Home Warranty Service. Just a few quick changes can make your appliances more eco-friendly, which will not only save you some cash but also help reduce your home's environmental impact by lowering electricity usage and your carbon footprint. Let me give you an example: a 4-quart air fryer consumes about 1500 watts of energy, which costs roughly 25 cents per hour on your New York City electric bill. It's nearly 50% more efficient than using a traditional full-size oven. Now, you see, making these small changes can make a big difference for your environment and your wallet.
Now in this article, we are going to tell you about some excellent eco-friendly home appliances and how you can integrate them into your day-to-day life 
Key benefits of switching to eco-friendly home appliances-
Buying a new major appliance can be a bit of a hassle, especially when you're thinking about shelling out hundreds or even thousands of dollars for it. If you're having doubts, then you should consider the benefits of switching to eco-friendly appliances.
1. Eco-friendly appliances reduce your water consumption:
Home appliances like dishwashers and washing machines can be water hogs when they're not eco-friendly. The best way to tackle this issue is by checking for third-party certifications like WaterSense, which measures the water efficiency of appliances.
2. Save money:
Most eco-friendly appliances use less energy and water, which can help you save on both water and utility bills. Initially, buying energy-friendly appliances might seem a bit pricey, but in the long run, they're sure to save you some cash.
3. Save time:
Some appliances like an air fryer, for instance, cook food in less time than traditional ovens, allowing you to save energy, time, and money without sacrificing convenience 
4. Less energy consumption:
Eco-friendly appliances can easily help you save around 50% on your electricity bill, especially when you're replacing old appliances with new eco-friendly ones. When you're shopping, be sure to check for the Energy Star certification.

The most eco-friendly appliances for your home:
1. Electric kettle:
An electric kettle is an excellent energy-saving appliance because it comes with an automatic switch-off feature. When you boil water to a specific temperature, the kettle automatically turns off, making it a convenient choice for heating water quickly and efficiently.
2. Blender:
Large food processors are a fantastic alternative to blenders. Blenders assist you in achieving the desired consistency for your food processing needs. What you're looking for is a blender with settings that automatically stop when your ingredients are as smooth as you want them to be.
3. Rice cooker:
A rice cooker helps ensure that you don't overcook your rice and consumes much less energy compared to the traditional rice cooking method. Avoid buying a rice cooker with a Teflon-coated interior because it may contain harmful chemicals.
4. Dishwasher:
Having an energy-efficient dishwasher is essential for making your home more environmentally friendly. Dishwashers are among the most frequently used appliances in households, but they can be quite water-wasting if they're not efficient models.
When shopping for a dishwasher, keep an eye out for those with a WaterSense third-party label. This label shows that the appliance has undergone an independent inspection and received certification from the EPA WaterSense committee, guaranteeing its performance and efficiency.
