BRITA VIVREAU - Efficiency on-Tap
In today's fast-paced corporate world, maintaining a healthy and efficient work environment is paramount. One simple yet impactful way to achieve this is by ensuring easy access to instant, fresh, filtered drinking water.
While BRITA water dispensers offer seamless filtration solutions for offices, there’s understandably speculation around their energy efficiency. Our research shows that 92% of decision makers are concerned about rising energy costs, and 72% have goals and targets in place to lower energy usage and decrease overall environmental impact.
Read on as we look at how much electricity BRITA water dispensers commonly use and what you can do to save more energy.
Cost Effective Solutions
For a typical office kitchen used by 50 employees over 250 working days, the Extra C-Tap only costs £38 more than a typical kettle. It provides 52 litres more water and offers chilled, ambient, and sparkling filtered water options.
Using a kettle also results in an average of 8 litres of wasted water daily.
Quite right. BRITA water dispensers are not that greedy when it comes to energy consumption.
Even the BRITA Top Pro, our classic, versatile water dispenser for business, uses only a modest 0.6 kWh per day (based on 60l/day usage and stand-by energy consumption), that comes to £13 per year*
That’s considerably less than a typical coffee machine, dishwasher, fridge, kettle or even microwave.
*average UK energy price 25p per kWhr
