Water Saving
In the past, many sites have installed various styles of flush control unit in an attempt to save water and cut costs. However, simply reducing the flow of water to urinals usually has negative consequences. A constantly flushing urinal would probably never block but would result in a big water bill. By contrast, a moderately used urinal that receives no water would smell and block frequently resulting in regular and costly manual or chemical maintenance. When reducing flushing, other steps are therefore needed to reduce these unpleasant and costly consequences.
By focussing on improving urinals, Gentworks plays a major role in reducing water and maintenance costs in many UK institutions and companies. Gentworks customers save water, have fewer problems with blockages and the vast majority expect to make significant net savings as a result. Urinal flushing is often the greatest single use of water at a site. Gentworks customers typically use
95% less water to flush urinals, reducing their overall water bills by between 25% and 50% dependent upon other uses of water at the site. These savings are achieved without increases in maintenance expenditure. Indeed, most customers report a
75% reduction in maintenance costs.
Gentworks
constantly tests and compares products new to the market, selecting those that are considered to offer the best value and performance to meet the key objectives of our clients. In our experience there is no single product or maintenance regime capable of resolving all urinal maintenance issues. Pipework configuration, urinal type, level of usage and even washroom temperature are factors that need to be considered before an appropriate solution is recommended.
We are fortunate to have several clients in education, business and government sectors prepared to take the time to vouch for the professionalism and effectiveness of Gentworks.
References and case studies can be provided to confirm that we do what we promise.
The simplest and most cost effective way to reduce overall expenditure on water is for sites with urinals to address the issue of unnecessary flush frequencies. |
