Make the Fix: The Cost of Leaky Faucets

For businesses looking at their bottom line, a leaky faucet can cost companies hundreds of dollars per year if substantial leaks in one or more sinks go unaddressed. Making timely repairs to your commercial sink faucets is an important part of proactively improving water conservation. The EPA notes that commercial facilities can lower operating costs by 11% if they address water use.

Commercial Grade Faucets vs. Residential

Commercial and residential settings result in very different sanitation needs, so commercial faucets and sinks differ from residential sinks in a few ways. Homeowners are more likely to use their faucets carefully and address small repairs quickly, while the fast-paced workplace environment typically results in more wear and tear.

As a result, commercial faucets and sinks, also known as “contractor-grade,” use more durable materials and designs than retail faucets, known in the industry as “builder-grade.” Commercial faucets often use metals instead of plastic or are designed to use a larger rubber O-ring that may handle frequent and rough use longer than other options. It’s important to work with a trusted commercial plumbing company that knows the difference and will use the right parts.
