Client Profile
Based in Hampshire, Winchester City Council operates the historic Guildhall in Winchester as a civic and public events venue hosting conferences, weddings, and community functions. As a high-footfall public building, water efficiency is essential to control operational costs, meet carbon reduction commitments, protect public resources, and demonstrate environmental leadership within the local authority estate.
Challenges / Pain Points
Winchester City Council faced rising operational pressures at the historic Guildhall, including high water consumption from outdated flush systems and spiking utility bills in a high-usage public venue. With increasing ESG and carbon reduction targets, poor hygiene performance and maintenance demands were also key concerns. The council needed a low-impact solution that delivered water and carbon savings while improving reliability, user experience, and overall facilities performance.
The Propelair Solution
At Winchester’s Guildhall, eight Propelair 1.5lt toilets were installed to dramatically reduce water use, cut carbon emissions, and enhance hygiene in this busy public venue. Each unit uses just 1.5 litres per flush compared with conventional systems, delivering up to 80–85% water reduction and significant CO₂ savings. The OneThreeFive system features rapid refill, closed-lid air flush technology that eradicates airborne germ spread. These modern, low-maintenance toilets support the environmental goals and operational efficiency of Winchester City Council while improving user experience.
