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.
