Urinal Water Use
High urinal water use
It is widely recognised that washrooms, in particular urinals, are the biggest contributor to wasting water - a precious resource.
With the cost of water increasing, businesses are looking to reduce their water use and thereby their costs. Envirowise* states that UK businesses waste 310 million litres of water every day, 86% of which is a direct result of flushing toilets, so by reducing washroom water use, businesses are able to cut water bills.
An uncontrolled urinal with a 9 litre cistern flushing every 15 minutes, can use over 315,000 litres of water per year. Typically supplying 3 urinal bowls, when flushing every 15 minutes, this equates to 105,000 litres of water per urinal bowl - a very high level of water use.
For every 9 litre cistern, such high urinal water use could be costing your business up to £700 in water charges and depriving our planet of a resource we cannot afford to waste.
Save up to 90% of your urinal water use
The Enviro-Fresh product range includes our own Defra approved, timed, water management device that controls the flow of water to the cistern. Flushing can be reduced to between 4 and 8 times per day, depending on how busy your washroom is, enabling you to significantly reduce the amount of water used. This reduction in urinal flushing will enable your business to achieve significant savings in water costs. Review our Water Savings Calculator for applicable savings in your area.
