50,000 free trigger nozzles

The Brumby Government and water authorities will provide Victorian gardeners with 50,000 free water efficient trigger nozzles for their garden hose in exchange for their old twist nozzles.

From Saturday, 5 June, 2010, the free trigger nozzles will be available from more than 50 accredited Water Saver Garden Centres, with a limit of two trigger nozzles per household.

Water Minister Tim Holding said the free trigger nozzle giveaway follows the overwhelming popularity of a program to provide 14,000 trigger nozzles to mark the introduction of Stage 3 water restrictions in April this year.

Stage 3 water restrictions allow gardens to be watered for two hours every second day and a 50 per cent increase in watering for public gardens and sportsgrounds.

For details on where to get a free water efficient trigger nozzle visit www.ourwater.vic.gov.au or call your local water authority.
