6.3.4) Water-conscious building standards
Apply building standards to minimise water use.

To protect precious water resources, TKU has long adopted conservation methods to avoid water waste, such as installing taps and toilet flushing equipment provided by the campus toilets. In cases of maintenance and replacement, the adopted equipment must meet the National Standards of the Republic of China (CNS) and have water conservation mark. The men’s toilets fully utilize non-flushing technology urinals. There are 231 urinals in the university, which saves about 5.06 million liters of water per year (calculated based on 6L each time, 10 times a day), which not only saves water but also saves the electricity used for flushing. In addition, the new (renovated) building also follows the water resources indicators of the nine major indicators of the green building standard, and refers to the relevant guidelines for the new (renovated) building to strengthen the protection and utilization of water resources to create a water-saving environment; sprinkler irrigation systems throughout the campus, water-saving spray valves are also used to adjust the time and intensity of spray irrigation according to the weather conditions to reduce the water consumption.
