New water solutions for ACT homes
New Water, an Australian company that provides innovative water solutions to help households reduce their potable water consumption, has recently announced a new franchisee for the ACT.

Peter Morrell, who lives in Curtain, had previously owned a professional photographic laboratory in Fyshwick before becoming the ACT franchisee for New Water last month.

"Whilst looking for a grey water treatment system for my own home, I came across New Water's Aqua Reviva system which I was very impressed with. It was then that I also discovered the company had a great business opportunity available," Peter said.

"The Aqua Reviva 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 ACT homes definitely needed," he added.

In his role, Peter is responsible for selling New Water's range of rainwater tanks including the Rain Reviva bladder tank, Slimline, Microslim and In-slab tanks as well as the award-winning grey water treatment system, Aqua Reviva.

Peter explained that the ACT is in great need of innovative domestic water solutions to assist residents with the drought situation.

"Homeowners need to think seriously about how rainwater tanks can make a real difference and we believe the Rain Reviva bladder tank is the best way to harness and store rainwater as well as save space around the house," Peter said.

"It is flexible enough to fit under a house or deck and can capture water from the entire surface area of the roof up to 300 percent faster than a standard tank system," he added.

The ACT Government offers a rebate of up to $800 for the installation of an approved rainwater tank with an internal plumbing connection on properties connected to ACTEW Corporation's water supply network.

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 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.
