Rainwater Harvesting System

Above Ground Unit

Our new rainwater harvesting system is designed to store and redistribute rainwater. Ideal for areas of low rainfall and those with water usage restrictions in dry periods. In these areas the storage of rainwater can be extremely useful. Our system is easily connected to a rainwater down pipe where a simple connection is made to divert the rainwater into our high strength polyethylene storage tank either for underground storage on new build or renovation or above ground storage for existing properties (as shown below). It comes in various volumes from 1150 liters upwards. Multiple tanks can be slaved together to create any required storage capacity.

Below Ground Unit

On an average 3 to 4 bedroom property the tank would typically be sited at the front or back of the development, however land permitting you could connect both the front and back rainwater down pipe’s at a mid point As an example a typical area of pitch or side of a roof on a detached or large semi would be around 35 to 50 sq m and would generate between 150 and 250 liters per hour of rainwater from an average U.K. storm. So our smallest 1150 litre unit would take around 4 to 8 hours to fill in constant rainfall. Once the tank is full it will go to overflow. This amount of water would give a reserve water supply from the system for use from a hose or sprinkler onto your garden or connection to a jet wash for around 3 to 4 hours this is based on a large car wash machine 450 litres per hour.
