Commercial Applications
Onsite rainwater harvesting for commercial buildings is fast becoming a widespread occurrence as supply and discharge prices rise considerably. SHG 'Water Harvest' solutions will significantly reduce the fresh water demand within your building. We specialise in delivering a total water efficiency solution which not only encompasses rainwater capture but also flow regulators on outlets, auto shut off mechanisms, cistern efficiency and sensors.
Substantial cost savings will be evident due to the reduced demand for fresh water at the inlet and lower discharge quantities at the sewer outlet, typically double the price of water purchase.
Effective rainwater harvesting solutions will capture all accessible runoff to maximise storage recharge for reuse in the building. SHG will utilise surfaces on roofs and carparks to harvest the greatest possible amount of water for reuse. Rainwater is ideal for toilet flushing, irrigation and, cooling tower makeup water which is responsible for the majority of fresh water consumption in commercial buildings.
SHG has experience solving many different forms of rainwater collection scenarios which means your business will be drawing from a wealth of skill and technical knowledge resulting in a tailored solution delivered within a specified time frame and budget.
SHG will project manage your rainwater solution from concept to commissioning SHG will also provide ongoing technical support post installation.
The advantage to implementing water efficiency measures for building owners will be the increased value of the leased space due to the sustainability credentials. Environmental rating programs such as Greenstar and NABERS reward water efficiency measures substantially which equates to higher values on the net lettable area (NLA).
If a business were to occupy a building with good environmental elements this would have a positive reduction on their emissions report and feature prominently in their sustainability plan and carbon reduction strategy allowing the business to claim an occupancy carbon reduction which will have a direct and indirect financial benefits.
