As Australians, we rely on water in our daily lives, often without realising the amount we consume. However, the availability of water is greatly influenced by climate, weather patterns, and population growth, particularly given the country’s vulnerability to drought and changing weather conditions.
We all expect high-quality, treated drinking water to flow from our taps consistently without giving much thought to how it gets to our homes. However, water is a precious and finite resource, and it is essential that it be used more wisely to ensure sustainable supply for the future.
Australia’s water knowledge levels are low, with only 64% knowing where their household water comes from and 45% saying they definitely don’t think about where it comes from.
We all need more help understanding our water use, deciding what behavioural changes to make and choosing the most durable, highest-performing water- efficient products for our homes.
That’s why The Water Conservancy has partnered with UK water efficiency experts Save Water Save Money to introduce The Water Conservancy GetWaterFit Calculator and Marketplace.
Brands, manufacturers and retailers of the Water Efficiency Labelling and Standards Scheme (WELS) 4 star rating and above, Energy Rating and Smart Drop Certified (previously known as Smart Approved WaterMark) can list their products on The Water Conservancy Marketplace.
For a better understanding of how people use water at home, The Water Conservancy GetWaterFit Calculator helps inform customers how they can be more water-savvy and recommends relevant, personalised products to help mitigate water wastage that are featured in the Marketplace. You can access the GetWaterFit Calculator at https://www.smartwateradvice.getwaterfit.com.
At The Water Conservancy we are committed to helping all Australians be conscious of their relationship with water, to value it, understand it and use water efficiently in order to conserve more and waste less.
