Water Conservation:
Water conservation plays a major role in our business model. Every year in Canada Billions of litres of clean drinking water (one of our most valuable resources) is wasted on washing cars.
Easywash does not require GVRD water to operate. In order to eliminate our impact on the local drinking water supply Easywash has drilled an onsite water well that has the ability to produce over 30 gallons per minute of water. Although the water contains Iron and Manganese (naturally occurring), it can be cost effectively treated through our onsite water treatment plant and used to wash vehicles.
This water well, along with a storage tank under our driveway will give Easywash the ability to access up to 35,000 liters of water at any given time. The well water is also used to flush toilets and irrigate our landscaping.
It is estimated that over the course of a single year Easywash will save more than 24,000,000 Litres of Clean drinking water from being wasted on washing cars.
