Water, our most precious resource, is the focus of growing interest and consumer cost. Rural Solutions SA’s proven success with water management systems for irrigation efficiency, effective recycling and water quality is a growing business.

Now a practical guide in the form of a book titled Waterwise House & Garden shows how we can contribute to conserving water in our home and garden.

The guide to sustainable living takes a planned approach to saving water in the home using different household reticulation options including the use of rainwater tanks and recycling greywater.

Importantly it shows how to eliminate unnecessary watering in the garden by working with nature to create a garden that is both enjoyable and sensitive to the environment.

Author Allan Windhurst explains the science behind survival strategies in plants in dry conditions, shows how soil and water interact, and demonstrates how to improve soil in your garden.

The result is an accessible and informative resource guaranteed to help you reduced the environmental impact of everyday living, and dramatically reduce your household water bill in the process.

And isn’t that something we all want to achieve!
