Estimate litres and euros per month, and see what cutting use by 35% would be worth. No sign-up, no commitment.
Adjust the values to match your business. The simulation updates as you go.
A hotel of around 50 rooms at 65% occupancy processes close to 150 kg a day, the assumption used in the article.
Reference bands: 17 to 22 industrial washer with no conservation measures, 12 to 15 with rinse water reuse, 7.5 to 12 continuous tunnel, 1.5 to 4.5 tunnel with recycling.
Use the rate on your own bill, water plus sewerage.
Pick 300 or 330 if the property closes out of season.
An estimate of water and cost, from the values you chose and the reference bands for the sector.
Your operation já está no nível de referência. Aos 13 L/kg ou abaixo, não há redução de água que se possa estimar aqui — a partir daí o que sobra depende do equipamento, dos programas e da carga, e só se sabe medindo. Preferimos dizer isto a mostrar-lhe uma poupança que não podemos justificar.
35% means going from around 20 L/kg to around 13 L/kg, through rinse water reuse and disciplined loading. These are the article’s reference figures, not Arelia measurements.
The simulation rests on public reference figures for the sector, not on Arelia measurements. Here are the assumptions, so you can judge them.
Use them to place your own operation in the "litres per kilo, today" field.
| Situation | What it means | Water use |
|---|---|---|
| Industrial washer, no measures | Good performance, no water conservation | 17 to 22 L/kg |
| With rinse water reuse | Same machine, final rinse water reused | 12 to 15 L/kg |
| Continuous wash tunnel | Established reference for continuous washing | 7.5 to 12 L/kg |
| Tunnel with a recycling system | A further 40 to 80% improvement, depending on the system | 1.5 to 4.5 L/kg |
The simulation shows the order of magnitude. A quote built on your real volume, your location and your operation shows the rest.
