PVC Tarpaulin Rainwater Collection Bucket 380L Circle Round Shape

Rainwater harvesting is the method by which water from roofs and hard standings is collected, filtered and stored for later use. In its simplest form, a rsinwater harvesting system comprises of a Water Butt connected to a downspout, to collect rainwater from a house’s guttering. Add a watering can to this system and you have a cheap way of watering your garden.

However, new technology allows for more complex Rainwater Harvesting Systems to be plumbed into your home’s existing pipework. This then enables you to use the collected rainwater for flushing toilets and washing clothes etc, reducing your mains water consumption by up to 50% (according to the UK Rainwater Harvesting Association).
