Micaul Solar Rainwater Harvesting Systems

       

Rainwater is part of the never-ending Water Cycle

Between the seas, clouds, rain, hail, snow and the system of streams and rivers no drop gets lost and no new drop is made.

However, saving fresh and drinking water makes sense from both an economic and an environmental viewpoint. It is part of our drive towards a sustainable society. Water may seem to flow endlessly from our taps, but its delivery and purification requires more and more energy, more effort and so more expense.

Drinking water is our most important food. The average British household uses around 150 litres of water a day, but as little 50% of it needs to be of potable quality, for the preparation of food and drinks and at the kitchen sink.

For many uses we just don't need high quality drinking water. For toilet flushing, washing machines, for cleaning and garden watering you can safely use filtered rainwater, with the help of the right rainwater equipment, properly installed.

This means that half of the drinking water used can be saved without any reduction in hygiene and comfort.

Other benefits of using soft rainwater:

  • More efficient washing, saving up to 50% on washing powder

  • Washing machines don't become furred up with lime

  • No lime scale/salt build up in toilets and urinals

  • There is no better water for your garden and plant irrigation

  • A major contribution to Sustainable Drainage Systems, helping to alleviate flooding and runoff problems

  • Reduces pressure on the water environment, and reduces burden on stretched water supply and sewerage systems

  • Saves us all the energy and carbon consumed in the production of treated water

  • Saves you money on your metered water bill
