New Water water saving solutions to assist South Australia
New Water, an Australian company that provides innovative water solutions
to help households reduce their potable water consumption, has appointed a new Sales Agent
for South Australia.
Chris Norton, who lives near One Tree Hill, had been involved with supplying goods and
services to the building industry for over 20 years before becoming New Water's SA Water
Management Consultant last month.
"Water is a very scarce commodity and so when I came across New Water's grey water treatment
system at a home show in Sydney, I was very impressed with the concept and technology," Chris
said.
"It can give householders continuous access to water for their garden, washing machine or to
flush the toilet, even during low rainfall periods and strict water restrictions. I thought it
was a product South Australian homes definitely needed," he added.
In his role, Chris is responsible for selling New Water's award-winning grey water treatment
system called Aqua Reviva as well as its range of rainwater tanks including the Rain Reviva rainwater
bladder tank, Slimline, Microslim and In-slab tanks.
Chris explained that South Australia, the country's driest state, is in great need of innovative
domestic water solutions to assist residents with the drought situation.
"South Australians are very dependant on the Murray River for their water supply and as the level
goes down, people's water use will be restricted further. The time will come when people will pay
not only for the excess water, but for all the water they consume," Chris said.
"The opportunity to use water twice by treating it through the Aqua Reviva grey water treatment
system not only helps conserve potable water resources, it will eventually equate to savings on
households' water bills.
"Homeowners need to think seriously about how they can make a real difference and we believe capturing
rainwater and treating grey water are ideal solutions to reduce the negative impact on our water ways,"
he added.
New Water's Aqua Reviva system uses a biological filtration system that can treat up to 700 litres of
grey water (from washing machine and shower) daily to Class A standards. The treated grey water is
discharged at neutral level pH 7.0, which doesn't affect soil fertility. The system can be operated
using solar power.
New Water also designed and manufactures the Rain Reviva, a bladder tank flexible enough to fit under a
house or deck which can capture water from the entire surface area of the roof, up to 300 percent faster
than a standard tank system.
The South Australian government offers up to $800 on installation of a rainwater tank and the plumbing
of a new or existing rainwater tank into an existing home.
New Water is a founding member of the Australian Grey Water Institute (AGWI), which endeavours to educate
governments and households about the benefits of grey water treatment.
All New Water products are Australian designed and made and have been tested to Australian standards.
