Rainwater is a Natural Resource:

Nature delivers a supply of soft rainwater directly to your property. Houses and business' generally have built-in collection devices (roof, gutters, downpipes) delivering rainwater to ground level. Diverting this rainwater through a filter to a rainwater storage tank makes it readily available for many uses.

Rainwater Harvesting can be used utilized in many forms:

• Irrigation
• Toilet flushing
• Washing machine
• Outdoor use
• Wash down
• Vehicle washing
• Manufacturing
• On the farm

Water Conservation:

Rainwater harvesting provides a solution to the problem of water shortage.

The shortage of, and cost of, providing purified water for drinking is likely to pose an increasingly large problem in future, yet a sizeable proportion of the water we use in our homes and within industry does not need the degree of purification of drinking water. So much of this valuable resource is wasted on activities such as flushing toilets, washing clothes, washing your car and watering your garden.

Apart from the environmental gains, the increasing cost of water will give an economic advantage to Rainwater Harvesting and Rainwater Collection Systems. This, together with the added value given to property for a small capital outlay, makes Rainwater Harvesting a positive asset to any home or business.
