*** Rainwater harvesting - The solution to your water problem?***
Fed up of running out of water? Take the matter into your own hands!
With the average rainfall from the past years, we can forecast and tailor make a system that suits your needs and enable you to be self-sufficient in water for up to 9 months of the year.
What about the next 2 months?
With a good storage capacity (buffer), you will be less affected by the water disruption (which occurs during the droughts) as well as being able to benefit from the occasional rain, which still occurs even during the dry season across the island.
The math is simple: 1mm of rain over 1m2 of roof area will harvest 1 litre of water. For example, 200 m2 of roof area, which gets 85mm of rain during the month of November, will harvest (200 x 85) 17,000 litres of water.
You can check what is your actual water consumption by looking at your water bills from the CWA (1 m3 = 1000 L) to be able to size a system that will match your demand.
Rainwater benefits:
- A better water quality than tap water.
- Healthier hair and skin, can reduce or even suppress eczema.
- Less maintenance on your washing machine, dishwasher and hot water system.
