Water Audit Print E-mail


The purpose of a Water Audit is to identify improvements that will result in water savings for the end user. At PE Consulting, we believe a water audit should do more than recommend simply swapping out sprinkler heads or adding faucet aerators. We believe a water audit should provide the client with expert, professional guidance on making their business or enterprise sustainably efficient. In addition to cost reductions, a water audit should consider the big picture needs of an organization such as health, comfort and the environment.


What separates PE Consulting from others is our practical understanding of building and site design, operations and maintenance. We carry that knowledge into our audits by analyzing not just no-cost and low-cost operational improvements, we think "outside the box" by addressing the root cause or architectural improvements that could reduce or even eliminate the need for inefficient waste water infrastructure and costly plumbing and mechanical systems thus further reducing capital costs and permanently slashing water (and energy) costs.

PE Consulting audits are provided by seasoned, unbiased (product neutral) professional architects, engineers and landscapers who are well versed in green building design, water conservation and horticulture. We constantly cross-train our team in water management, reclamation and green building design practices. This helps ensure that we consistently offer the highest quality audits at the lowest cost. More importantly, it ensures that our clients get the best results for their investment.

Our audits yield the highest sustainable water cost savings in the industry. Why? Because we address efficiency for all levels of an organization: from operations & maintenance to capital improvements with flexible financing and implementation. Over 95% of all our audits get implemented. So you can rest assured that our recommendations will be practical and meet your constraints and economic criteria. Our water conservation recommendations exceed all regulatory standards and the capabilities of other auditors.

Newsflash

"We buy fire insurance when there's less than a one percent chance our house is going to burn down. We have a military, and although I may not like everything we do with it, I don't know anybody who says you should get rid of it because you have security precautions against only very low probability-but potentially dangerous-threats. Well, the climate change threat is not one percent. It's better than 50 percent for really significant trouble, and maybe 10 percent for absolutely catastrophic trouble. What kind of crazy person would take that chance when you can fix it relatively easily?"

"You guys sure turned our master planning upside down (in a positive way). It looks like we'll be a lot more efficient and provide service much more reliably than we have in the past and save more money than each year before."

Clean Water

With populations booming and constantly on the move, the demand for water when and where we need it is becoming one of the most important issues of our time.

By doing so, we can reduce and eliminate the need for massive, unsustainable infrastructure.
