Recommendations<br />
Based on the interviews with the building managers and the laboratory staff and the outcome of the<br />
occupant survey, recommendations were made in order to reduce water consumption, promote efficiency<br />
and move towards sustainable water use. The recommendations are divided into short term, long term and<br />
capital intensive and on-going. The short term recommendations are of first priority, and allow for low-cost<br />
and immediate water savings, while providing the basis for the implementation of more advanced water<br />
efficiency measures. The long term and capital intensive measures require greater spending, and should be<br />
integrated in future plans and developments. <strong>Final</strong>ly, education is identified as an ongoing process leading to<br />
water savings in the short and long term, and promoting sustainable development.<br />
The recommendations address administrational, policy, infrastructural, technical and behavioural aspects of<br />
water consumption.<br />
