BALGACH
Major reduction of water loss.
Thanks to LORNO, a quarter of the damage expenses and, until now, 50% of the water loss is reduced already in 17 out of the 50 hydrants that are to be equipped. The main goal is to reduce the water loss permanently to five to ten per cent of the current losses through LORNO.

Early leak detection and thus saved costs and saved water.
As first community of the region, Sargans has installed the LORNO control system. With this system, damages in the water pipelines are detected early and reparations can be planned accordingly. This leads to cost savings, and the investment will be amortized in just a few years.
