Overview
Rainwater harvesting has the potential to save a large volume of mains water and reduce pressure on resources. Water that would otherwise be lost can be used instead to flush toilets, water gardens and feed washing machines.
The systems substantially reduce consumption of potable water by using the roof (and only the roof) as a collector of rainwater. This water is stored underground and can be used for the garden hose supply, flushing toilets and washing machines.
As the population grows and water reserves decline, the need for rainwater harvesting systems becomes evermore important, as these systems replace water usage in a safe and convenient way.
