Waterwise in the workplace

Welcome to 'Get Waterwise in the Workplace', a section of our website dedicated to helping our business customers become water efficient.

Why be Waterwise in the Workplace?

As a business, you pay for all the water that passes through your meter so it makes good financial sense to ensure you are not letting it any go to waste.

If you are new to water efficiency, taking simple inexpensive measures can typically reduce your water consumption by up to 50%.

Saving water is also good for the environment and will help to reduce the carbon footprint of your business. Cleaning and treating water uses valuable energy and resources, and if water levels fall, the wildlife in wetland habitats may suffer. Also, if you are heating your water prior to use, any reduction in water consumption will also have a positive impact on your energy bills too.
