Euro Garages Service Station

Euro Garages wanted to cut their bill, but they were not sure where to start.

One of their largest motorway service stations of this leading independent convenience retailer needed water monitoring to find out where their water was going. They required real-time consumption data on each washroom and needed this data broken down for them in an easy to understand report which highlighted the return on investment for fixing and upgrading each asset. The existing knowledge was lacking. They knew they were having maintenance and cleaning issues but nobody could say how/when/where problems were occurring.

The installation of our complete water monitoring solution took only 1 day. Another day later, we were able to present where the leaking toilets, leaking urinals, inefficient/broken taps were and how much they were costing in cold and hot water.

We gave a complete business case for fixing each issue so they could prioritise budget and make calculated decisions. Then we compared the actual performance against predicted to roll out to other sites. We gave a complete business case for fixing each issue, then reported the actual performance all within a couple of weeks.

Outcome

The monitoring solution facilitated the saving of water consumption and bills of £28,000 in just 3 months.

This also resulted in a saving of 9 Tonnes CO2 per year, a considerable carbon footprint reduction.

The monitoring solution provides multiple benefits such as improved efficiency in maintenance and cleaning, reduced water usage and reduced costs.

Plus, at a high level, it will give a better customer experience – nobody wants to see broken taps or toilets constantly running.
