Low cost:
Rainwater collection is an extremely green way to cut down on buying in or pumping bore-hole water, or in some cases, a more cost-effective and realistic option than recycling. Once the relevant equipment is in place, ongoing collection costs are zero.
Worthwhile collections rates:
The collection volumes are quite huge, for example, an area of 40m2 with 25mm of rainfall will produce 1m3 of water, so taking a yard/apron or roof area of say 50 x 50m, would produce 62.5m3 per 25mm of rainfall. Buffer storage can be considered to overcome seasonal rainfall fluctuations, see our GRP and plastic storage tank as well as pipework pages
