Consumption Analysis
ADS Environmental Services can provide a detailed consumption analysis of the metered use of customers. This can determine the impact on water use and revenue of the current meter change-out program for 10-1nch, 8-inch, and 6-inch meters. This facilitates the selecting of 3-inch and 4-inch meters for testing and replacement. This service also could efficiently select 2-inch meters for the planned testing program.
The analysis also could identify the potential for reducing unaccounted-for water due to oversized meters, by considering the impact fees generated by demand charges. Meter replacement and payback periods can be determined for each meter size, based on actual projected usage, meter cost, water rates and meter reading method.
Strategies to minimize water loss are essential for cost control and proper management of limited water resources. ADS can provide skilled specialists to perform leak detection, leak quantification, and other services required for a complete audit of water loss. The cost of the program is often recovered through reduced water loss and increased revenues.
