Aged Care Complex

Lourdes Valley is a new eighty bed age care facility. The 2" main supplies bathrooms in each room, kitchen, laundry facilities and small garden areas. The flow rate of water into the complex can vary from one shower being used (about 8 l/m) to eighty showers being used at one time which is very unlikely.

Rather than install one large Ecovortek unit we decided to install two smaller units so that one unit will have a higher flow rate in low use situations.

The Lourdes Valley staff have reported that they are very happy with the result, water is softer and bathrooms are easier to clean when compared with the old complex next door.

Feedback from customers

No Chlorine Smell

Thanks for installing the Ecovortek Unit. So far have noticed clothes are softer and cleaner and hair is much more manageable — don't seem to need much conditioner and definitely no chlorine smell in the shower.

Improved Skin and Hair

I've suffered eczema and dermatitis since I can remember and I thought, at 22 I would've grown out of it. Instead my dermatitis flared up and became harder to handle. This was associated with extremely dry skin, which was aggravated whenever I would take a shower.

I've been to countless dermatologist and naturopaths who all had only short term solutions. ...

I noticed that when I travelled interstate, taking showers was much more pleasant and my skin was never aggravated. I realised the harshness of South Australia's water system was not benefiting my condition at all but instead was aggravating it. ... A friend recommended Ecovortek, and so we had a unit installed.

I can safely say that the Ecovortek has done wonders for my skin. This isn't to say that it's cured my condition of course, but my skin has never been so soft and bearable in my entire life. I no longer frequently use steroid creams, and I don't come out of the shower red, itchy and totally frustrated.

I can't believe how much such a simple device has helped in such a big way. Even my hair is softer! So thank you for this fabulous product and for providing me with a long-term solution to my life time condition.

I Now Drink From the Tap

I installed the Ecovortek into a new home that is currentlyrunning off of a mix of rainwater and mains water until the Winter rains fill the tanks. I now drink water directly from the tap, whereas previously I would stick to spring or filtered water. I have also found that I require much less dishwashing liquid, as the water seems to soap up much more with the Ecovortek. I love that there is no maintenance required. Once installed, you can just forget about the unit and let it work for you.

Dog Has Cleaner Teeth — Pool Stays Cleaner

For health reasons, I had the Ecovortek Universal Unit installed in December, 1999.

Apart from a much sweeter, clearer flavour in the drinking water, I have noticed considerable differences around the house such as little or no soap build up in the shower, the garden is flourishing and the lawn remains green without constant fertilising. Also the pool stays cleaner, longer with everyone commenting on how soft and refreshing the water is.

Even the dog has cleaner teeth and a sweeter breath!

Ecovortek ... continues to give peace of mind that I am doing the best I can for the health and well-being of myself and family.

Adelaide Water Tastes and Smells Better

I have just had your Ecovortek Universal Unit installed into the mains of my home at Brooklyn Park. I have country origins and have always drunk rain water. I have not liked the taste and smell of Adelaide mains tap water. Within days of the Ecovortek being installed I happily drink the tap water. Like a good wine it is smooth and easy to drink with no offensive odour. My hair is softer and in better condition and I need less shampoo.

I love the no clutter under the sink that comes with an RO process. There are no extra taps, super simple and super efficient on all levels. No maintenance. How could you not have one?

Improved Taste, Softer Feel

I purchased an Ecovortek unit and applied to the mains water for our property at McLaren Flat in 2007. It was not a prime intention to condition water for the house as we already had a filter installed in the kitchen. However as the house was also receiving the Ecovortek treated water we could not but help notice the improved taste from the kitchen tap. It tasted as good as the filtered water. My wife also commented the water in the shower made a real difference to her washing her hair and definitely made it feel softer.

Thank you.

Mains Water Feels Like Rain Water

As you know we bought an Ecovortek Universal Unit in 1999 and we have been very happy with our mains water ever since.

I thought you would be interested in what happened recently to a friend of mine. She was renovating her home and could not use the bath room so came around daily to shower at our home. On the first day she rushed in, showered and rushed out again saying how lovely it was showering in rain water. I thought to myself but we don't have rain water in the shower!

The next day she came again, showered and commented on how lovely it was to shower in rain water. She said “it has a lovely feeling on my skin and my hair is so much softer”. I told her that we don't have rain water you're showering in mains water that has been treated through an Ecovortek unit installed by the water meter nearly ten years ago.

It's a wonderful product and well worth the money.

Yours sincerely

Ecovortek Is Much Better than Bottled Water

I am writing to let you know of my experiences with one of your Ecovortek units. I fitted an undersink unit a couple of years ago to a kitchen tap that is fed by a rainwater tank and is basically only used for drinking water.

There is a pad type filter on the outlet of the tank to remove solids, etc. Before the Ecovortek unit was fitted, it was necessary to clean this filter every 3–4 weeks, otherwise the water would taste horrible. Since fitting the unit, I have noticed that this filter can be left for anything up to 8 weeks before there is any noticeable taste in the water.

Since fitting the Ecovortek unit I have noticed that the water tastes really good and refreshing to the point where it is easy to keep drinking more. My work takes me to various country locations and I always take my own supply of drinking water from home. However, recently I was away for an extended period and ran out of my home water, so I bought a container of spring water. The surprise to me was how bad this water tasted and also how it was “dead”, it was just completely flat with no energy, to the point where I could not bring myself to drink it.

It was this experience that made me realise how good and alive the Ecovortek water is, something that was not really appreciated until I had something to compare it with.

Keep up the good work,

Reduced Calcium in Hot Water System

Just a few lines in regard to the installation of Ecovortek at Thuruna Camp Site.

Prior to installation there had been trouble with Calcium build up in the Hot Water System, which proved an inconvenience and a costly situation.

We have now overcome the situation of Calcium especially during summer time. We are using rain water during the Winter.

So frankly, we have obtained the best of two worlds. Really with my experience I cannot understand why your product is not installed on all houses on Eyre Peninsular.

Improved Cleaning Results Through Ecovortek Water

"Things seem to get cleaner, really cleaner when they are washed by hand. Washing water soaps up more by about an 80% improvement. The suds stay in the dishwater when they previously used to disappear very quickly.

Dish washing gets things cleaner, shinier and brighter. No more water marks or streaks are found on glasses or on stainless steel which is also shinier.

Whilst washing cloths the water gets dirtier very quickly and the clothes are cleaner more quickly.

Great product."

Improved Health & Wellbeing Through Ecovortek Water

"Over 2 years ago I had been diagnosed with cancer. I was concerned about the water I drank. I knew that the water contained chlorine and also fluoride which is a poison and carcinogenic if taken in too great a quantity. So, when Andrew brought over the Ecovortek container I gladly accepted to try it out. He gave me some tap water to drink then he poured me some water that had been through the Ecovortek container. I could not mistake the difference in the quality of the water. It felt smooth, no harshness to it, if you can describe the water in that way.

The people who come to my home and drink the water from the Ecovortek unit have never again helped themselves to the tap water. I feel I am doing something positive for my body by drinking the water that is processed by the Ecovortek. I wouldn?t be without it.

As we all know cancer is somehow related to oxidation so knowing that the water carries anti-oxidents it gives me even more re-assurance that I am drinking something that is working towards prevention of cancer.

I have felt physically well drinking the water and it also gives me peace of mind and for me that make a huge difference to my life."

Ecovortek Unit Improves The Taste Of Water

"I'm really happy with the ECOVORTEK water well and I'm sure my food tastes better being cooked in the water. My visitors won't touch the tap water for their herbal tea or when they just want water at my place."

Ecovortek Water Relieves Cancer Patient

Mr Andrew Shore

Ecovortek Pty Ltd

ADELAIDE SA 5000

Dear Andrew,

Recently I became aware that I had prostate cancer and after all the preliminary tests, began a treatment with radiotherapy. However, the radiotherapy did not agree with me giving me severe bowel problems and partway through the course, it was terminated.

I really had no option for any other treatment and was resigned to live with the problem and make the most of each day as it came.

I was aware of the fact that the passing of water would become increasingly more frequent and may even become restricted by the swelling of the prostate cancer.

I was sharing these thoughts with a friend who said, "Would you like to see what can be done with Naturopathy?" Through this contact I acquired one of your ECOVORTEK urns complete with its special filter to provide drinking water.

Within ten days there was a marked change. Where I had been passing water every 3 hours, with some incontinence, I had changed to being able to stay for as long as 6 to 8 hours before needing to pass water and no incontinence.

Also, I can now sleep right through over night without needing to get up and go to the toilet.

I attribute these changes entirely to the mystery filter in the drinking water urn provided by you, and I wonder if there may be even more benefits to be discovered.

Thanking you for your assistance in this matter.

Yours faithfully
John G
