In this episode I share which of my favourite natural cleaning products I used to complete the exit clean on my house in our recent house move, and how they performed.

Earlier this year we made our BIG family move from the small town of Roxby Downs to the city of Adelaide, 600 km away. 

I contemplated outsourcing the exit clean to save time, but for various reasons, we decided to complete it ourselves.

I also secretly wanted to put my favourite natural cleaning products to the test to see if they were up to the big task of a leave-no-surface-spared exit clean, and they didn’t disappoint!

Water is essential to life.

It’s quite possibly the most valuable resource on Earth, yet with the way we waste water in the Western world, you wouldn’t believe this to be the case.

Following the Millennial Drought, the worst recorded drought in Australia’s history, inventor Peter Cullin set himself a mission to do something about reducing household water consumption.

He discovered that the bathroom, and more specifically the shower, was the most wasteful area in a typical dwelling and that every minute of every day, in hundreds of millions of homes around the world quality fresh drinking water was being wasted due to inefficient showers.

So began the quest to create, from scratch, a new type of shower that would overcome the seven major waste problems inherent in typical showers.

Peter’s invention, The Cullector is now recognised as the world’s most efficient DIY retrofit shower. It’s a multi award winning ultra-efficient shower that combines several water saving solutions into one simple water saving shower, it’s self-powered and provides a quality showering experience that saves water, saves money and reduces greenhouse gas emissions.

If you’re keen to try out the Cullector Water Saving Shower for yourself Peter has offered a 20% discount on the full range at Water Saving Showers between now and end May 2018. Simply enter code ECOCHAT to save!
