Our Commitment to Environmental Protection

At Chitwa Chitwa, we are dedicated to leading the way as an ecological safari lodge. Our mission is to ensure that your visit leaves minimal impact on the natural beauty of the reserve and its environment.

Lighting

We’ve transitioned to all LED lighting, eliminating incandescent bulbs to reduce energy consumption.

Water Heating

Our villas are retrofitted with solar water heating systems using evacuated tube solar collectors. “Geyserwise” intelligent electronic devices improve the efficiency of our solar heaters. All exposed piping is insulated for maximum heat retention.

Pool Pumps

Our pool pumps are fitted with “VF Intelliflow” speed pumps, reducing power consumption by 90%.

Grey Water Recycling

Our laundry facilities use eco-friendly washing machines and a wastewater recycling system, repurposing water for garden irrigation.

Waste & Refuse Removal

All waste is sent weekly to a certified waste depot, ensuring proper disposal and recycling practices.

Air Conditioning

All our air conditioners are inverter-equipped, significantly reducing energy use.

Detergents & Cleaning Agents

The cleaning materials we use are all ecologically approved and all washing powders are phosphate-free.

Natural Thatch Roofs

Our grass roofs provide natural climate control, insulating rooms in the summer to reduce heat and retaining warmth in the winter, lessening the need for air conditioning.
