Pure Eau observes schools savings on water

05 May 2011

Pure Eau looks at how schools are saving money on water.
Everyone likes to save money and schools are no different. Tackling sustainable issues on a tight budget is essential for all schools when the focus really should be on  educating our young. This government website provides excellent information regarding savings made on anything from pencils to water suppliers. You can find all the details at www.education.gov.uk.  We at Pure Eau know all about water quality, saving money and helping to save the environment.  We ensure that our water coolers and water filters provides schools, offices and homes with plenty of pure water which has had all the contaminants removed through reverse osmosis to remove all impurities.
The website advises how the water supply industry is somewhat of a monopoly, with usually one supplier per region, which makes it impossible to select a supplier based on the value for money they offer. They discuss with this in mind it is essential to then reconsider other initiatives to help you reduce water consumption in order to lower  costs and improve your sustainability. They are quite right in saying that you may be able to choose your sewerage removal supplier, but often it is the same as your water supplier. They explain how water course surveys can be carried out by independent companies offering a ‘no win, no fee’ service to check that your school has not been overcharged for surface water drainage. Simple ways which may help your schools consumption of water include adapting the flow rate on taps/showers through low-flow shower heads and sink spigots. Maybe installing water hippos in toilets, especially when some water suppliers provide these for free and they can reduce the amount water in each flush by up to 3.5 litres. Ensure that you have no leaking pipes – this costs money! Collaborate with other schools in the area to check if your increased consumption qualifies for a discount – worth a go! Drinking water is essential for everyone, but especially in school children. Drinking 8 glasses of purified water is known to hydrate the brain and keep young children alert and their bodies in optimum health.
The Eco-Schools programme is free and once registered there is even a simple seven step process which helps to address different themes including water management, often reducing your usage by two thirds. We at Pure Eau don’t have to be clever at maths to know that will save some pennies. Pure Eau has a solution to all your water requirements. Our water coolers and water filters provide you and your family with nothing but pure water to hydrate health bodies and minds.
