Online calculator for water savings

PHS Washrooms has launched a campaign to challenge facilities managers to 'cut costs twice'on water bills.

The idea comes from information published by WRAP that said: "Few businesses identify water as a raw material that is paid for twice, to receive it and to take away the waste." Water charges are volume based and, according to PHS Washrooms, billions of litres of water are flushed needlessly every year at significant expense. To support the 'cut costs twice' campaign,PHS offers an online calculator that can quantify water savings. It uses basic information about the site, such as number of toilets or urinals and hours of operation.By entering the rate for water and sewerage,average default figures in lieu of that detail are provided.
