Our Favorite Money- and Water-Saving Tips

1. Prioritize Routine Plumbing Maintenance

The best way to ensure fewer leaks, drips, and other plumbing issues that can contribute to higher commercial water bills is by regularly monitoring your pipes and maintaining your plumbing equipment. The Heiden team can help you do just that. We perform routine inspections to make sure your plumbing system is functioning efficiently.

2. Watch for Signs of Problems

If you notice your water bills are suddenly much higher than they normally are, or you find signs of water leakage or damage, don’t wait to react. Bring in the experts at Heiden. We can perform camera inspections to look inside your pipes—which is something other plumbing companies can’t always do. Trust us to find and solve your issue, wherever it may be.

3. Be Prepared for Water Emergencies

If your business, commercial property, or apartment complex experiences a water emergency, be sure you know where the water shut-off valve is located and how to use it. This will save on wasting water while you wait for the experts—like the ones at Heiden Plumbing—to arrive.

4. Educate Employees and Tenants

Teach your employees and apartment building tenants best practices for saving water. That includes reminding them to turn off faucets when not in use and to use water efficiently when running equipment or machinery. Make sure they know how to immediately report leaks or other plumbing problems that can occur to minimize damage and repair costs.

5. Install Low-Flow Fixtures

Installing lower-flowing fixtures or sensor-activated faucets in your commercial or apartment building is another way to save on water bills. While there is an up-front cost for installation, you’ll notice savings over time.

6. Track Usage

The best way to stay on top of your water expenses is to monitor your average usage and adjust accordingly. This will help you stay familiar with trends—and notice inefficiencies as they arise.
