Are you pouring money down the drain
Thank you for visiting our water conservation page. Here you will find information about how Thermo Scientific™ recirculating chillers can replace tap water cooling. Asking the question...Are you pouring water and, as a consequence money, down the drain?
There is a fantastic promotion available that will assist you in paying back the cost of purchasing a chiller even more quickly, whilst a calculator is available to show how quick that payback might be!
Three great models of Thermo Scientific recirculating chillers have been chosen to cover a range of applications where tap water cooling is often used.
To find out more information about these products and see a copy of the brochure, please see below:
Download our water savings calculator and see how quickly you pay back the cost of a recirculating chiller and start saving money.
How to use the calculator:
- Enter your current tap water flow rate (L/min). If you don’t know what this is, you can measure the current flow into a bucket for a minute
- Calculate how many hours a day, days a week and weeks a year you use tap water for a particular application (ie 5 hours a day, 5 days a week, 50 weeks a year equals 5 x 5 x 50 = 1,250 hours). Add this figure to the Annual Equipment Usage (hours) box
- The calculator comes preloaded with the water and sewerage costs quoted in the Smart Note. If you know what price your organisation pays per 1000 litres (m3) for both water and sewerage you can add these for an even more accurate payback time
- The calculator then estimates annual water saving (litres) annual water cost and payback time for the promotional chillers
- The calculator has in-built hours of operation and electrical expense to give an enhanced representation of the savings you can make
