Sign Up to Take the H2Otel Challenge

By installing independently certified WaterSense labeled products and implementing best management practices, you can reduce water use and operating costs at your hotel while still ensuring customer satisfaction. Taking the Challenge is easy—all you have to do is ACT (assess, change, and track):

  • Assess water use and savings opportunities
  • Change products or processes to incorporate best management practices
  • Track water–saving progress and achievements.

The Challenge is designed for any individual hotel with five rooms or more. Hotel chains and management groups can sign up their individual facilities. All hotels that sign up will benefit from the following free resources:

  • Technical resources, including WaterSense's Water Use and Savings Evaluation Tool (WaterUSE Tool)—a spreadsheet designed to help hotel operators and facility managers assess their water use and identify and prioritize best practices to implement.
  • Technical and outreach webinars—recorded webinars on hotel water-saving topics and live webinars continuing in 2016.
  • Recognition tools, including a participant logo and a signed certificate of participation.
  • Case studies and lessons learned from other hotels that successfully saved water.
