Many Institutional, Commercial, Industrial and Residential (I.C.I. & R) facilities have areas in which they could become more efficient. Focusing on water efficiency through reduction programs, it is essential to satisfy certain criteria in order to convince facility operators to implement the opportunities identified by the water audit. Simple payback periods must be as short as possible, capital funds must be found to finance the audit process, corporate commitment must be form in its support of the water efficiency program, and the measures taken should cause a minimum of additional work and headache for operational maintenance staff.
HETEK Solutions Inc. has been successful in providing water efficiency and reduction studies through water audit programs. With a well-defined approach to a complete study and the involvement of key personnel whose responsibilities are clearly identified, the goals of the facility can be met with a high degree of optimism.
In conjunction with a review of existing data provided by the facility and site inspection identifying all water usage, these key personnel can analyze water flow measurement and accountability using either flow measurement equipment, where possible, or calculations from volume/frequency estimations, to perform a water balance. After all water usage and volume is identified and accounted for, recommended approaches to water-saving measures can be properly identified with a well-established basis for a cost-to-benefit analysis for each measure.
A complete water audit of an entire system is the most comprehensive tool available to water suppliers for identifying areas of peak water usage and wastage. The audit combines all of HETEK's water conservation services to evaluate the operation of the system and to establish criteria for a systematic program to reduce lost water. This service improves overall efficiency within the system and ensures that capital dollars can be spent in the most effective manner possible.
