"Lowaters Nursery" Saving on Water Costs

 

Lowaters Nursery is one of the 'UK Water Efficiency Awards 2012' winners. The awards are run by The Environment Agency and Waterwise and the winners demonstrate the creative and practical ways in which organisations are cutting water consumption.

In the farming and horticulture sector, winner Lowaters Nursery in Southampton is no longer reliant on mains water to irrigate its plants. This has been achieved through a seven million litre reservoir, rainwater capture and a clean water storage and pumping system. The nursery has gone from using 17,000 cubic metres of water to almost nothing which has meant savings of at least £20,000 a year.
