Improving Efficiency with a Water Focused Eco MOT
At SaveMoneyCutCarbon our experience over the past decade has shown that water efficiency can have a big effect on annual water and energy bills. For instance, eco taps deliver water savings of typically between 50 – 70%, while ultra-low flow toilets can reduce water usage by 75%.
Here’s how we helped one of our customers, Stoneyford Care Home in Sutton-in-Ashfield reduce water costs.
Water Focused Eco MOT Retrofit Solutions & Further Recommendations
David Ball, our technical lead on the Water Reduction Team visited Stoneyford Care Home to review where savings could be made on bills, energy and CO2.
While on site, David installed tap aerators and toilet displacement bags to immediately reduce water consumption. These interventions delivered an instant and tangible impact on water usage. Additionally, we found scope for significant savings with further upgrades.
