CASE STUDY
Objective
Monitoring and management of water demand at Pretoria Boys High School.
Solution
Following the DROP principle:
1. Data: Collect all relevant information/data to determine the historic daily demand of the site, called the baseline
2. Refine: Install electronic monitoring devices – also called Automatic Meter Reader (AMR) devices - to refine and better understand the site’s water demand profile - monitor site consumption to determine flow profiles and demand
3. Options: Determine the options to lower demand (leaks, efficiency devices, system optimisation)
4. Proceed: Proceed with design considerations for the identified options. Water awareness training with all staff, educators and learners.
Results
20% reduction in water consumption.
