Create a Water Saving Garden
You can create a beautiful, rewarding garden that requires minimum water. The process we outline in this MitrePlan is to start with a low-water garden design; select low-water plants; reduce water wastage; collect water from rain and other sources; and then use your water effectively.
Install a Water Tank
Do your bit by collecting rainwater from your own roof. This water normally flows wastefully down gutters and drains. Rainwater can be used for watering gardens, flushing toilets, and washing clothes.
Install a Garden Watering System
A watering system is the easiest and most water efficient way of keeping your garden green. This Mitreplan is designed to help you select and install the right system for your garden.
Grey Water Management
The average household produces 400 litres of greywater per day. If you can use it all to replace drinking water that you would have used for watering plants or flushing toilets you could save around 140 thousand litres of drinking water every year!
Outdoor Plumbing AAA Water Saving Rating
Studies have shown that nearly half of an average household's water consumption is outdoors, so any water saving out there can have a dramatic effect on the environment and your water bills. There are many ways to save water with well-considered outdoor plumbing. The AAA rating scheme (administered by Standards Australia) has been devised to assist you to select products that help you to conserve water.
