Are Water Bills Draining Your Company’s Profits?

       Businesses must manage their water bills carefully – or watch their profitability leak away, according to water management experts at Chamber Utilities™
Utility Auditing, part of Ener-g plc, which is your Chamber Utilities™ services provider, can help you manage your water and waste water services.  
 

Utility Auditing has for several years helped Chamber members reduce their water consumption and costs.  The ever increasing demands being placed on water companies to meet stringent environmental regulations often involves an investment cost, which they pass on to their customers.
Charges for the supply and treatment of water are expected to continue rising year-on-year and are currently increasing at a rate of between 5% and 8%. This is unlikely to be reduced as the demand for higher quality water continues and greater investment required delivering these improvements.
According to Chamber Utilities™, it is imperative for companies to monitor their water costs to improve efficiency and ensure they are paying the correct level of charges.
“There is scope for some companies to cut their water costs through eliminating areas of waste and excessive consumption”, said Jeff Wealands of Chamber Utilities™. “ Our team can advise on total water management and leak detection, as well as ensuring that users optimise efficiency by having the right meter size.
 

“We can also help organisations to identify any anomalies in their water liability – helping to recover historic overcharges. This can amount to several thousands of pounds.”
