Motion sensor automatically activates and shuts off your water supply, can earn BREEAM WAT 03 credit

Water is a precious resource and water wastage from taps left running or faulty cisterns can be responsible for significant water loss if left unchecked. PIR WaterSave® is a reliable motion-sensor/valve system, allowing the supply of water when movement is detected and automatically switching the water supply off when no movement is detected. PIR WaterSave® is an effective water conservation solution, saving precious water, saving on water bills and can earn one BREEAM credit.

Designed to help achieve the requirements of BREEAM WAT 03.

PIR WaterSave® is an effective motion sensor flow control system, ideal for buildings with communal areas with running water.

Research conducted by the UK water industry finds that around 5% to 8% of toilets are continually leaking water

PIR WaterSave® can reduce your water bills by eliminating water wastage through leaky taps, taps and showers accidentally left running and importantly leaky loos which can all add up to a significant waste of water.

Water lost through faulty toilet cisterns can amount to a significant amount of water wastage, ranging from 215 to 400 litres per toilet per day. Nationwide, it is estimated that 400 million litres of water leak from UK toilets every day, which could meet the needs of 2.8 million people.

Example scenario based on the cost of water wasted from leaky toilets in a 500-bedroom hotel

If 8% of the hotel's WCs waste 400 litres of water per day based on a cost of £1.70 per 1,000 litres, the hotel could be paying £27.20 per day or nearly £10,000 per year for wasted water. This does not include dripping or leaky taps or when visitors leave a tap running.

PIR WaterSave® is an effective water sustainability solution suited to multi-occupant/visitor buildings such as:
