What is “Going Green”?
When someone talks about green plumbing all they are talking about is saving water and energy . The first thing you think is how much money is that going to cost me? Well most things you can do are not very expensive and every thing has a return on investment or ROI.
The first thing that everyone asks is how fast is my ROI?
The answer is that it depends on you and your building. In some buildings it can be fairly quick others may take years depending on the work done on your property. If you install something to save water, gas, or power that means you are spending less money on your utility bill. That along with the tax credits guarantee at worst a decent ROI.
What types of things can we do to go green?
For residential clients there are things like water saving fixtures and high efficiency water heaters. For commercial clients there is a much larger rate of return due to the sheer amount of water, gas, and energy they use. Recently after replacing the boilers in a down town San Antonio hotel the hotel is seeing a $2000-$2500 dollar gas bill reduction. Most equipment for commercial businesses can be leased from Buck’s Plumbing and the cost savings can off set the lease payments. Call today to set up an appointment to find out how you can go green.
