The Lifesaver procurement route offers benefits over and above the financial savings outlined here. These include:

Pre- and post installation monitoring ensures that maximum savings continue to be achieved beyond the installation and commissioning phase.

Chalmor has extensive experience in not only identifying appropriate grants, loans and other sources of additional finance but also in navigating the often complex application processes associated with them. This expertise is available to all Lifesaver scheme customers.

All Lifesaver contracts are accompanied by an extended warranty scheme for the duration of the contract. So all financial risk is transferred to Chalmor and any problems are dealt with swiftly and efficiently.
