There is no higher quality source of water available to us than rainwater. Rainwater that is collected on roofs and stored appropriately represents a sustainable source of water is ideal for use both inside and outside the home.
Purified water is required for drinking, cooking, dishwashing and bodycare, but these uses account for less than half the water usage of a typical household. Almost one third of the average household’s water is flushed down the toilet. Rainwater can be used for toilet flushing, washing machine, garden watering and car washing.
By having a Rain Catcher rain harvesting solution fitted in your house, the benefits are numerous. And, to ensure that our solutions are accessible to everyone, Rain Catcher has designed the perfect water management system to fit all house types, detached, semi-detached, terraced, etc.
Advantages of rainwater harvesting in your home:
- You can save up to 50% mains water usage. By using Rainwater Harvesting systems to supply water for some of your household requirements, you can reduce your dependence on mains water.
- Reduced water bills. Water rates, due to be introduced for households, are also set to increase substantially in the coming years. Valuable drinking water is much too expensive for flushing toilets and irrigating gardens.
- Having a rain harvesting solution in your house will add value to your property
- All Rain Catcher water management solutions are extremely low maintenance
- Soft rainwater creates no lime scale
- You can choose an above or below ground tank (cool and dark), for low visual impact
- Rainwater is best for garden watering
- The cost to the community to supply mains or reticulated water services is becoming more expensive every year. The construction of dams, pipes and treatment plants is huge and ultimately as tax and rate-payers, we foot this cost.
- Significant economic, social and environmental benefits can be achieved by using rainwater. Our water supplies are falling and water restrictions are in place in many communities to reduce our overall water usage and protect our supplies.
It’s simple. Rainwater falls for free – once you have installed your water management system, you use less mains water and can reduce your water rates.
