Eco-friendly & Cost Efficient Water Management

Utility costs rank as one of the highest expenses to manage but are typically not a priority for management. Saving your company money is crucial because let’s face it, money wasted is incredibly futile in a world with such easy access to technology and knowledge. Evaluating water and energy efficiency will yield effective cost savings.
“Did you know every gallon of water has an energy footprint needed to pump, move, heat, and treat water?” according to WaterSense, a voluntary program in partnership with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to provide water saving resources and products.
How do you ensure you are being the most eco-friendly and cost-efficient in managing your building’s water?
WaterSense offers several steps you can take to manage your facilities water:

  • Continuous water use monitoring and tracking to identify any leaks or issues
  • Verify your facility is being charged the correct size water meter
  • Meter all sources of water to target reductions and set up alerts to identify leaks
  • Regular facility maintenance by replacing worn equipment such as valves
  • Adjust sensors on toilettes or faucets to avoid double flushing or leaking
  • And much more!

The real water savings depends on user behavior similar to energy. Water leaks that continually run may not be visible until you receive that large bill at the end of the month.  Due to unpredictable leaks, WaterSense recommends working directly with the Utility Vendor to correct any discrepancies or consider hiring a bill review service to receive any possible credits. However, we all know Utility companies can take up several hours of your time trying to receive any credits, and if not done within the proper window, the credit will not be given at all.
Hiring a Utility Expense Management company, like RadiusPoint can alleviate these concerns.
