My most recent installation of waterless urinals was at a bar in Somerville. The energy audit I performed showed that this was one of the changes that made sense for them - it had a short payback and the changes could be done almost immediately with little disruption to the restaurant. The installation of 3 waterless urinals saves the bar about 120,000 gallons of water a year (equal to 160 cubic feet of water). The cost of water is approximately $12 per cubic foot. Therefore, the annual savings for the restaurant is $1,925 and their payback based on the cost of installation is less than two years.
