    According to the Arizona State Climate Office, Arizona is currently in its 21st year of long-term drought, so Sloan Park has placed a special emphasis on water-saving restroom products. Sloan provided the ballpark with 1.28 GPF flushometers for water closets, which save 14% more water than 1.6 GPF flushometers, as well as .125 GPF flushometers for urinals, saving 50% more water than .25 GPF flushometers. Together, these fixtures are helping to reduce the ballpark's water use by over 30%.
