Many companies save costs by setting up staff camps for use by their employees – providing low cost local accommodation, convenient for working life. However, one staff camp can house more than 10,000 men or women, and if utilities are not properly maintained, hundreds of thousands of dirhams can be wasted each year. With multiple blocks providing hundreds of rooms, canteen/kitchen facilities, toilet, shower and washing facilities, the potential for a water leak occurring is high. With such a huge site, managing water leaks or being able to identify them could be time consuming.
Common signs of hidden water leak are bad smell, mold on walls or ceiling and unusually high water bills.
