The ICC Pulse Podcast is back with a whole season of 5 episodes ready to listen! This is one of the five.
In this episode of the ICC Pulse Podcast, we dive in to discussing water reuse. I know – many of you might not be as open to using the same water you just, well, used, but in this episode, we challenge you to explore how water reuse can be a safe, innovative way to help save the world's water supply. We speak with a few experts on breaking the stigma of water reuse and how reusing water is possible in our homes and businesses.
Guests on the show:
- Rich Anderson, Director of PMG, International Code Council
- Philip Parisi, P.E., LEED AP, Associate Principal, MG Engineering
