The hospitality and care home sectors are currently making significant strides towards reducing water consumption and implementing a wide range of energy-efficient solutions.
Despite significant efforts to conserve water through various consumption control measures, the hospitality and residential sectors face a paradoxical situation: while overall water consumption has decreased, the cost of heating this water has continued to rise.
The hospitality and care home sectors’ efforts to reduce water consumption and improve energy efficiency have been met with an unexpected challenge: a significant increase in energy costs. This upward trend has eroded the anticipated savings, particularly in the realm of Hot Water System (HWS) heating. While efficient HWS exist, the cost of gas, the primary fuel for water heaters, has skyrocketed by over 200% in the past four years, negating the gains from reduced water usage.
Considering that domestic hot water (DHW) costs account for approximately 40% of energy expenditure in hospitality establishments, this translates to a substantial monthly expense.
