How To Save Water in Hotel Industry
Hotels use approximately 15 % of the total water in commercial sector for hospitality and other lodging facilities. That’s between five to eight times more water usage than an average home.
Therefore, having a proper water management plan, including technology intervention and employees training, can shrink down the higher water consumption. It will also cut down the water bills, and reduce the water waste.
The most practical solution for the hotel is reusing wastewater in non-potable applications like Toilet flushing, cleaning, gardening and HVAC, greatly reducing in freshwater consumption.
The important tips that can help reduce water footprint are:
- Design your property based on green building norms.
- Not allowing the vegetable waste going into drain for easy recycling of wastewater.
- Using treated water for gardening & horticulture.
- Use of automated water saving sprinkle irrigation system.
- Dual plumbing to use recycled waste water for flushing.
- Use of treated waste water for the HVAC applications.
- Running laundry in full capacity instead of 50 or 70% and also install laundry water recycling plant.
- Maintaining swimming pool with quality chemicals & effective filtration process to avoid frequent blow downs.
- Covering pool area to minimize evaporation.
- Install & maintain advanced energy efficient & water saving equipment e. g. refrigeration, cooling & heating system.
- Water supply, consumption & discharge must be connected with BMS (building management system) for effective monitoring.
- Training staff about water conservation.
- Educate guests about the hotel’s water management practices by placing a small card in hotel room.
- Encourage Guests to Reuse Linens & Towels.
- Installing low-flow aerators on faucets and showerheads.
