Stormsaver ainwater harvesting system for Sainsburys

(24/12/2008)

Stormsaver is to supply a £16,000 system, which features Stormsaver’s COMBI-system, to Sainsbury’s in Otley, Leeds.

Rainfall will be diverted from the building’s 3618m2 roof to a 15,000 litre storage tank instead of adding to the local water course. The rainwater will go through a multi-stage filtration process before being used for flushing toilets.

Project Estimator Helen Renshaw secured her first order after recently being promoted. She has worked for Stormsaver for a year; she was promoted to her new role after only eight months as a sales consultant. Her job involves advising on and writing specifications, customer service, project management and managing service and maintenance contracts.

“I’m thrilled to have secured a Stormsaver system for Sainsbury’s after only recently starting my new job,” says Helen. “The process of this order was very detailed and involved getting quotes and ensuring that the system matched the designer’s specifications. I’m particularly pleased that Sainsbury’s has ordered the new COMBI-system which is a new and exciting product, developed specifically for commercial buildings with minimal storage space.

“This contract gain adds to Stormsaver’s impressive portfolio of clients including B&Q, Isleport Foods, Co-op and several Building Schools for the Future projects,” comments Lisa Farnsworth, Sales Director. “Helen and the Stormsaver team are committed to providing the best possible solutions for all our clients. Our ever expanding sales team work together very closely and their performance so far in 2008 has exceeded targets already.

“The new COMBI-system will have significant benefits for Sainsbury’s compared to a standard pressurised unit. It will reduce installation costs by simplifying electrical and pipe work, reduce running costs by using efficient sort start pumps, and offer a reliable back-up during low rainfall periods without the need for large header tanks.”

Stormsaver estimates that its system will reduce Sainsbury’s annual mains water bill by more than £1,800 per annum.

The new COMBI-system is now available for purchase, with the first units having been ordered by B&Q and Sainsbury’s.
