Everyone uses water each day especially at work.
There are loads of really small changes that you could make which all add up to
make a big difference – especially to your pocket and the environment! There are many benefits to reducing water
consumption in the work place; it can help with more than just cost. It can
help your business to comply with current and future environmental legislation,
reduce its carbon footprint, improve your company’s environmental performance
and generate positive PR.
Our water conservation tips and advice will give you
an idea of a few change - there are many more though:
Education
- Educate your employees on the importance and practices of water efficiency
- Create a goal of how much water your company can save and plan a celebration once that goal is met.
- Try and set water usage targets and encourage widespread involvement to achieve this!
Maintenance
- Know where your supply pipes run and where the shut off valves are
- Check your meters at night or when no is being used to monitor leakage
- Make sure your pipes are protected against cold weather as leakage can increase after a burst due to frost
- Fixing these leaks could save as much as 20 to 60 litres of water a day. In most instances all that are required is an inexpensive new washer or valve.
- Incorporate water efficiency into your maintenance programme to ensure you maximise the benefits of water efficient technology
Toilets
- Replace toilets with no flush urinals.
- Regularly check for leaks and fix immediately.
- Install waterless urinals to reduce unnecessary flushing.
Pantry
- Try and use water efficient settings on all kitchen appliances
- Installing automatic taps or spray taps can help make a big difference to consumption levels
You can cut water consumption by using waterless
urinals on your office. For more information, visit Desert waterless urinal website.
