TRAVELERS REST, S.C.—T&S Brass, a leading manufacturer of plumbing and foodservice equipment, recently launched a new online tool to allow facilities to calculate the amount of water they can save through the use of aerators in hand sinks.
With both standard and metric conversions, the new tool allows users to see how much they can save in the way of water, energy and sewage costs, based on entering some simple information, such as number of employees working in the kitchen per day, average shift length and total number of facilities. While not specifically designed to calculate restroom water savings, the tool may also be used for this purpose by manipulating the number of hand washes per day.
Last year, T&S launched a similar water calculator, designed to determine cost savings through the use of low-flow spray valves for pre-rinse units.
“T&S is committed to being at the forefront of water and energy conservation,” noted Ken Gallagher, vice president of sales, T&S Brass and Bronzeworks. “With that in mind, it’s important that we offer these tools to help end-users, specifiers, consultants and other industry professionals understand how much they can impact their bottom line by making a few minor changes or specifying different equipment.”
The tool can be found at www.tsbrass.com/aeratorcalc.
