Buckingham Arms Pub
SaveMoneyCutCarbon helps family run Shorehams pub save over £700 by simply fitting tap aerators
Case study
We fitted tap aerators throughout the washrooms and kitchen
Saving the pub over £700 on their utility bills
These audit interventions have achieved a 56% water reduction, 56% energy reduction and 52% carbon reduction
Improving Efficiency with a Water Focused Audit
At SaveMoneyCutCarbon our experience over the past decade has shown that water efficiency can have a big effect on annual water and energy bills. For instance, eco taps deliver water savings of typically between 50 – 70%, while ultra-low flow toilets can reduce water usage by 75%.
Here’s how we helped one of our customers, Buckingham Arms in Shoreham-by-Sea reduce water costs.
Retrofit Solutions & Further Recommendations
David Ball, our technical lead on the Water Reduction Team visited Buckingham Arms to review where savings could be made on bills, energy and CO2.
While on site, David installed tap aerators to immediately reduce water consumption. These interventions delivered an instant and tangible impact on water usage. Additionally, we found scope for significant savings with further upgrades.
The audit interventions have achieved a 56% water reduction, 56% energy reduction and 56% carbon reduction across the 25 assets upgraded.
Annual savings already achieved:
Bills: £752
Water: 108,290 Litres
Energy: 2,906 KWh
Carbon: 0.58 equivalent CO2 tonnes
Further Recommendations:
The SaveMoneyCutCarbon team also identified that further potential savings could be won with more upgrades. Taps could be made more efficient, a toilet had a leak, and the hand dryers used up much more power than necessary.
Annual savings could be:
Bills: £291
Water: 53,144 litres
Energy: 645 kWh
Carbon: 645 equivalent CO2 tonnes
Payback: 18 months.
