Seven steps to lower the water bill in any apartment building

Reducing water usage in apartment buildings shouldn’t be difficult!

By following these simple steps, you can develop a water conservation program for your own apartment building that even follows the guidelines of the American Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Check it out:

1. The Easy Retrofit Solution

Installing the Hydraloop Concealed saves 25-45% on water bills without the need for additional piping.

By collecting the shower water, cleaning it right on the premises – the device actually vanishes behind the bathroom wall – and reusing it for toilet flushing and optionally laundry, every apartment saves up to 45% on tap water and wastewater.

The Hydraloop Concealed will be available from 2024 and can be easily installed in retrofit bathrooms.

2. Conduct a Water Audit

Identify where water is being used and where there may be leaks or other sources of waste.

3. Fix Leaks

Addressing leaks is one of the most important ways to conserve water. Conduct regular inspections to identify and fix leaks in faucets, toilets, and other water fixtures.

4. Install Low-Flow Fixtures

This includes low-flow showerheads, faucet aerators, and toilets. Low-flow fixtures can reduce water consumption considerably without sacrificing performance.

5. Educate Residents

Provide residents with tips on water-saving practices and the benefits of conservation.

6. Keep Track of Water Usage

By keeping track of water usage, you can identify areas where conservation efforts can be improved. Install water meters to monitor usage and use the data to focus conservation efforts on areas where it’s most needed.

7. Celebrate Water Conservation

Celebrating and rewarding residents who make an effort to conserve water can inspire others to do the same. Consider offering incentives such as reduced rent, gift cards, or other rewards to residents who make a significant effort to save water. Together, we can make a difference!

By implementing these steps, you can create a robust water conservation program for your apartment building that promotes sustainable living, saves money on water bills, and reduces water consumption.
