Water Management’s Water Assessment Process
First Step – Conduct a Water Assessment and Generate a Water Balance
Water Audit Phase1. Where does water go?2. How much water?3. Look at all areas of water consumption4. Create water balance5. Develop strong M&V Protocol

Water Management’s Water Assessment Process
Water Conservation Measures (WCM’S)
We classify potential WCM’s into two broad categories:
Domestic
Non-Domestic
Areas where equipment or procedures can be changed or upgraded to provided long term water /energy savings are identified as Water Conservation Measures (WCM’s).

Water Management’s Water Assessment Process
APPROACH Proven Methodology
During an on site audit we enter 5% to 10% of allguestrooms/resident units to measure fixture flow volume andrecord detailed information of each fixture. Additionally, fixtures inover 95% of all public and employee areas are assessed foroperational performance and all other water using equipment isevaluated.
This approach enables Water Management to apply actual flowrates of a representative sample size across similar fixtures within afacility. This data is then used to assess water usage throughout thefacility enabling us to recommend practical and cost effectiveoptions for reducing consumption.

Water Management’s Water Assessment Process
• Water and Energy are Interdependent.
• Water is local. Prices vary widely throughout the US and are rising faster than any other utility.
• ROI of 100% or better are frequently available.
• Water enhancements can improve customer satisfaction.
• The bottom line of Green is Black.
