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, reduces burden on
stretched water 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
