Garden solution for salty bore
Posted on February 28, 2020
John Lindsay has 360-degree views from his house on a steep hill in the Adelaide Hills in South Australia. With rainwater running out he was tapping into his salty bore water and as summer approached, from all angles his garden was struggling.
John turned to Australian water treatment company DELTAwater solutions. After testing his bore water in their water testing laboratory, they recommended one of their custom-designed products from the Heavy Duty range. The Heavy Duty water conditioners treat water with extremely high salt and mineral content.
“When we installed our Heavy Duty unit, straight away things started growing better again,” John says. “When I’d put water on the ground without the DELTA treatment it just sat there, it wouldn’t soak in. But when I put the DELTA unit on, the water just disappeared and soaked right in easily.”
John and his family continue to enjoy their healthy garden featuring extensive green kikuyu lawn areas, bottlebrushes, gum trees, pigface and lavender. An orchard that includes nectarines, plums, peaches and cherries and a vegie plot are also thriving.
The DELTA technology has also made a difference to his maintenance. There’s no scale build-up in pipes and he only changes a sprinkler ‘every blue moon’.
“I’m very happy with the DELTA system, with what it’s done for my garden area and my home,” John said.
DELTAwater’s 100% Australia products have more than 25 years of proven success delivering water treatment technology solutions for a range of water problems including salinity, iron and scale. The company’s products are chemical, maintenance and power free.
