Water Saving

The Water Saving in South Australia page provides links to sites that give you advice and provide products to help you save water in your own home and garden.

In the current water crisis, there are lots of ways that homeowners can help save water.  The easiest way is to install a rainwater tank, to lessen a home’s dependence on mains water.

Other options include a greywater recycling system, which is a great way to cut down your water usage and keep your garden looking great even in the middle of water restrictions.  Systems can be expensive and complicated to install, so it’s important to have an expert to guide you through process, but, with certain systems, it’s possible to save money in the long run by cutting water bills.

Saving water is something that all South Australians have to think about more and more.  Whether you’re investing in a rainwater tank or making your house truly ecologically friendly with a greywater system, every little bit helps to save South Australia’s precious water.

At SA Water, we take our responsibility to protect the environment seriously. We acknowledge what we do now can impact on the world that will be inherited by future generations.

Currently, an average South Australian household will use about 40% of its water in the garden. So it makes sense to look at the garden as a good place to start saving water. We can save water in the garden without much effort and without losing the many joys and benefits gardening provides.

Water Saving System - http://www.ecosmart.com.au/

Australia is the world's driest inhabited continent. We are in the midst of a huge water crisis. The United Nations is so concerned about water that it has named 2005-2015, as the Decade of Water, due to our mismanagement of this most precious resource.

Depending on your home's plumbing layout and your water usage, the EcoSmart™ Water Guardian could save the average Australian household over 16,000 litres per year. That's 8 standard rainwater tanks and unlike rainwater tanks, the EcoSmart Water Guardian will save you rain, hail or shine!

At the touch of a button, the EcoSmart™ Water Guardian pumps all of the cooled water sitting in your hot water line back to the hot water system. This recirculation process continues until hot water becomes available at your hot tap. The Water Guardian automatically detects a temperature rise in the water and turns itself off. Hot water is available at the tap as soon as it is turned on.
