Water Usage
Water Usage

At the University, water is primarily used for communal purposes, with no industrial use. 

Despite the implementation of various water-saving measures, our water consumption has experienced a notable increase, primarily attributed to a significant pipe break in 2022. To mitigate such incidents, we have enhanced the frequency of water consumption monitoring, allowing us to respond promptly to any spikes in usage.

In the downtown area, our buildings lack the opportunity for water retention or rainwater collection. However, in suburban environments, buildings with gardens benefit from substantial water retention capacity. This feature plays a crucial role in preventing drainage issues and facilitates on-site retention of precipitation.

Wastewater originates solely from communal sources, and its treatment is entrusted to a service provider, as on-site wastewater treatment is deemed technically unfeasible. As we continue to address water management challenges, we remain committed to optimizing our strategies and infrastructure to ensure sustainable water practices across our diverse campuses.


Refills

We’ve made refilling your water bottles even easier by installing new, raised water taps on our City and Zugló campuses. These are specifically designed to comfortably fit almost any water bottle, so everyone can quickly and easily access fresh water at any time of day.
