Rainwater Harvesting Systems

Rainwater Harvesting Systems

Rainwater Harvesting is a method of collecting rainwater from the roof via the guttering. The downpipe from the gutter is connected to an underground storage tank, where the rainwater is filtered and distributed to the various home or garden appliances by means of a Pumping and Control Unit.

Save up to 50% of your drinking water
An analysis of the daily average water consumption of 147 litres per person shows that around 50% of this usage can be, cost effectively, replaced by rainwater. Our Rainwater Harvesting Systems can therefore help to save more than 25.000 litres a year per person and over 100.000 litres for a family of four.

Average Mains Water Usage

The integrated pressure monitor controls the operation of the submersible pressure pump and switches switches on the pump immediately a tap or sprinkler system is turned on. The dry run protector protects the pump from overheating by automatically switching the pump off when the rainwater tank is empty. A preinstalled suction filter reliably prevents sediment in the bottom of the tank from getting dragged into the pump.
