Australia is the world's driest inhabited continent. We are in the midst of a huge water crisis. The United Nations is so concerned about water that it has named 2005-2015 as the decade of water, due to our mismanagement of this most precious resource.

Depending on your home's plumbing layout and your water usage, the EcoSmart Water Guardian could save the average Australian household over 16,000 litres per year. That is 8 standard rainwater tanks and unlike rainwater tanks, the EcoSmart Water Guardian will save you rain, hail or shine!

At the touch of a button, the EcoSmart Water Guardian pumps all of the cooled water sitting in your hot water line back to the hot water system. This reticulation process continues until hot water becomes available at your hot tap. The Water Guardian automatically detects a temperature rise in the water and turns itself off. Hot water is available at the tap as soon as it is turned on.

Saves you rain, hail or shine!

Unlike a rainwater tank that will only save water when it rains, the newEcoSmart Water Guardian will save thousands of litres of water every year without a drop of rain.

 

Eliminate water wastage

The EcoSmart Water Guardian will eliminate nearly all waste water by recirculating all the cooled water in the main hot water pipe. (A small amount of cooled water residing between your hot water pipe and some taps will not be saved)

 

Works with any hot water system

The EcoSmart Water Guardian will work with any type or brand of hot water system.

 

Demand activation

Both the hard wired and the remote activation button provides you with full control of the EcoSmart Water Guardian.

 

Automatic shut off

The EcoSmart Water Guardian automatically detects a temperature rise in the water and turns itslef off when hot water is available at the tap.

 

Exceptionally quick and quiet

An EcoSmart Solar Heat Pump can save you up to 70%* on your water heating costs.

 

Quiet Operation

The circulation process is very quick at 53 litres per minute on the small unit and 89 litres per minute on the larger unit. Even though it is powerful, the EcoSmart Water Guardian is very quiet.

 

Positioning the EcoSmart Water Guardian

It is essential that the EcoSmart Water Guardian is positioned at the furthest fitting (hot water tap) from the hot water system. Typically, this is either the ensuite, bathroom or the kitchen.

 

It is important that both the hot and cold water pressure is equalised to ensure product performance. The easiest way to do this is to install a pressure limiting device at the water main. Any other pressure limiting devices further down the line must then be removed.

 

Specifying the size of the EcoSmart Water Guardian

There are 5 considerations when selecting the size of your EcoSmart Water Guardian

1. Determine whether you are retrofitting to an existing home or it's a new home installation.
2. If the distance from the hot water system to the furthest tap is more than 20 meters, select a large unit.
3. If the distance from the hot water system to the furthest tap is less than 20 meters, select a small unit.
4. If you have a continuous flow gas hot water system, you must select the large unit.
5. If in doubt, select a large unit. 

 

 

In a new home installation, a dedicated return line is installed between the furthest fixture and the water heater. The Water Guardian is installed within this line. Note: Install the Water Guardian as close to the last fixture as possible for the greatest efficiency.

In a retrofit installation, the cold line is used as the line to recirculate the cooled water. Water Guardian works off a temperature rise, so only cooled water enters this line. Note: Install the Water Guardian as close to the last fixture as possible for the greatest efficiency.
