Incorporating water efficiency programs
is an effective way for businesses to reduce operating costs by saving on
electric power, gas, chemical, and wastewater disposal expenses. By employing
water-efficient practices, you can convey an image of stewardship to employees,
customers, and the general public because you are helping to conserve water
resources for future generations.
Follow these simple steps to become water efficient:
- Read the Using Water Efficiently: Tips for
Businesses fact sheet.
- Use irrigation professionals that have taken WaterSense-certified
training courses.
- Track and manage water consumption and energy use with EPA's
Portfolio Manager.
Save Money on Utility Bills
When purchasing products and services that use water, think WaterSense.
When purchasing products that use electricity, think ENERGY
STAR.
Using WaterSense labeled products and services will save you 20 percent
of water over the average counterparts. Take this conservation ethic one
step further by purchasing ENERGY STAR, which can save you about one-third
on your energy bill.
By looking for the WaterSense label and the ENERGY STAR mark when making
purchasing decisions, you can reduce your water and electricity bills
and conserve resources for future generations.
