Water Conservation

At Jekyll Island Club Resort, water conservation is at the core of our sustainability efforts. With over 75% of low-flow or dual flush toilets, faucets equipped with low-flow aerators, and low-flow showerheads, we prioritize minimizing water consumption without compromising guest comfort. Our dedication extends to the outdoors, where native or drought-tolerant landscaping reduces irrigation needs, and smart irrigation systems with moisture sensors ensure efficient watering practices. By sub-metering water consumption in various areas, we empower data-driven conservation efforts.

• AquaRecycle’s state of the art technology reclaims 100% of the wastewater.
• The recycling process removes lint, minute solids, organics, detergents, surfactants, oil and other contaminants.
• The recycled water is then disinfected and ready to use again for both the hot and cold-water supply.
• The only water lost in the process is that which is lost through evaporation, or approximately 10% or total water usage, and a small amount of recycled water used to backwash the filters periodically.
• The temperature of the clean, recycled water will be about the same temperature as the wastewater, typically around 120 degrees.
• Our recycled water is used for both the hot and cold-water supply to the washing machines.
• The patented process begins with the removal of suspended solids to under 2 microns.
• We then filter the laundry wastewater through our proprietary blend of media to remove soaps, organics, free oil and grease, odors, chlorine, detergents, and other contaminants in the process water.
• The final process uses low-pressure ultraviolet light and ozone to disinfect the process water. Recycled water is returned for reuse, clean and disinfected, at an average temperature of 120 degrees.
