Water Efficiency & High ROI: Follower Friday with Larry Leikin
The Green Insider Powered by eRENEWABLEShow Notes
On this week’s Follower Friday, host Mike Nemer is joined by Larry Leikin, Founder at CMP Efficiency Solutions.
When people think about energy efficiency and sustainability, water usage is often overlooked—or assumed to be an unchangeable cost. In this episode, Larry breaks down how innovative water-saving valve technology is helping businesses cut water consumption, lower utility bills, and achieve rapid returns on investment.
Key Topics Discussed:
Larry’s Entrepreneurial Background: From telecom and retail energy to starting and selling five companies, and what drew him back into business with CMP Efficiency Solutions.
Reframing Sustainability: Why environmental efficiency directly aligns with profitability and high ROI.
How Water Valve Solutions Work: How valve sizes (ranging from 1/2 inch up to 12 inches) are determined by pipe size and water consumption across various commercial and industrial sectors.
Industry Applications: How hotels, car washes, food & beverage manufacturers, breweries, and multi-family housing cut water costs.
The ROI & Savings: Average water bill savings of 21% across verticals, with typical payback periods within 12 to 24 months.
Risk-Free Testing: Details on CMP’s 90-day free trial program with 5 valve installations.
Key Quotes:
“A lot of people don’t associate sustainability or efficiency with the word profit. But in every case that I’ve been involved in… sustainability and efficiency always equals profit.”
— Mike Nemer
“Water is something that people traditionally thought there’s nothing they can do about… The ability for us to save people money on something that they thought they could do nothing about is pretty compelling.”
— Larry Leikin
