Skip to content Canada, with 20% of the world’s freshwater reserves, is often seen as a water-rich nation. Yet this apparent abundance masks a worrying reality: the water consumption rate is one of the highest in the world, at about 335 litres per person per day, almost double the global average of around 170 litres.
This level of consumption, combined with aging infrastructure, climate change and ever increasing demand, is putting greater and greater pressure on resources. This highlights the urgency of adopting strategies for water usage and to saving drinking water to preserve this most precious of resources and ensure its availability for future generations.
Although rainwater and waste water (grey water) recovery is an ecological and economical solution, it is often overlooked when it comes to a building’s preliminary design. The reasons for this neglect are obvious: these systems add significant complexity to the design process and require coordination of multiple stakeholders. Moreover, many systems lack the flexibility to adapt to the differing constraints of each construction project.
This traditional approach has long hampered the development of sustainable water management practices in the construction sector. Architects, engineers and developers are often reluctant to integrate water recovery solutions because of the logistical and technical challenges they pose.
However, thanks to Ecotime’s uniquely innovative solutions, this mentality is changing. At Ecotime, we offer a comprehensive approach that simplifies all aspects of saving water and water recycling in this sector. By providing turnkey solutions, advanced technologies and expertise, we make water recovery systems more accessible and efficient than ever before.
Thanks to Ecotime, designers and developers can now easily integrate water recovery systems into their projects, helping to conserve valuable water resources while reducing the building’s environmental footprint. This innovative approach paves the way for more sustainable and eco-friendly construction, whereby water management and energy efficiency will play a central role in the design and construction of tomorrow’s buildings, today.
Ecotime leads the way in the development and commercialization of two innovative systems for water recycling, both drawing on essential sources in our daily lives. Firstly, by harvesting rainwater: i.e. by recovering, collecting and using rainwater falling freely on the roofs of buildings. Secondly, by recovering: i.e. collecting shower and sink water to be redistributed more efficiently.
In each case, Ecotime offers models adapted for each of these technologies. Better yet, we offer optimal solutions for each and every type of building construction. Taking into account the collection capacities and technical constraints of each project, Ecotime is committed to offering effective solutions adapted to your specific needs.
The main objective of these technologies is to achieve significant savings in drinking water, without altering users’ comfort or disrupting their daily habits. Thanks to Ecotime, it is now possible to maximize the use of available water resources while actively contributing to environmental protection.
Oasis is a fully automated, all-in-one rainfall harvesting system that allows for better stormwater management.
By collecting and recycling roof and gutter rainwater, Ecotime’s Oasis reduces overall water consumption within a building. Water is treated and then reused in toilets, sprinklers, washers and any other application where potable drinking water is not required.
Our Oasis system is available in different models to meet the critical specifications required for each construction job.

From Europe originally, Hydraloop has developed unique recovery systems that are compact, intelligent, self-cleaning and low maintenance.
The system collects wastewater from building showers, sinks or washbasins and then redirected into an internal tank. Once there it is treated and repurposed to flush the building toilets. Thanks to potable water recycling, it saves water that can be re-used for other purposes such as watering the lawn or garden.
The patented technology guarantees clean water that meets the highest international standards, without filters or chemicals. Different categories of Hydraloop exist to allow a perfect optimization of water recycling in your building.
Across Canada, Ecotime acts as a country-wide Hydraloop distributor and offers supports and expertise on water recycling and on the Hydraloop system. To visit the Hydraloop website, click here.

First up, we really get down to the nitty gritty of your project – taking the time to understand your needs, constraints and the specifics of your site and your building. This allows us to gather all the necessary information to accurately calculate how much water and economic savings would be very possible for your project.
Our expert team closely looks at all aspects of your project by recommending the best system fit for your particular situation. In a timely manner, we advise you on the most suitable model for your needs. Plus, we clearly spell out our conclusions, pricing and financing solutions so that, working together as client and customer, we can move forward with your project.
Depending on the system and context, we will assist you at every installation stage. For home or business owners, we’ll help you work with the plumbing team taking care of the installation. When it comes to the professionals, we are present at every stage of the design, submission and final implementation of your project… Once the installation is complete, we will take care of commissioning the new system.
As a final step, we then train operators for our specific systems and will remain your point of contact for all maintenance or any on-site issue. Once the systems are connected, we can also assist you remotely in most cases.
