Saves money on your water bill by reducing your water usage.
This recycled water can simply be used to flush your toilet, water your garden, clean your car and supply your washing machine. Gardeners recommend that plants use as much natural rainwater as possible rather than chemical mains water. It also costs a lot less to use than the water from your tap.
Various techniques have been practiced for thousands of years to collect and store water, especially in areas that suffer from low rainfall.
Today, rainwater harvesting systems can be installed in both new and existing buildings and can range from a simple, cheap water butt to a more complex system.
There is unprecedented pressure to ensure that every drop of water is accounted for and controlled in these modern times.
A rainwater harvesting system therefore has the potential to meet a significant proportion of the domestic demand.
This will in turn alleviate the overall demand on the supply of water from our regional and national resources.
The government’s Code for Sustainable Homes scheme encourages fitting large underground tanks to new-build homes to collect rainwater for domestic uses. This provides a 50% reduction in the amount of mains water used in the home.
