Rainwater tanks

A rainwater tank is used to collect rainwater from roofs. Rainwater from roofs can be harvested for high-pressure washing, car washing, toilet flushing, and clothes washing, as well as to water lawns and flowerbeds etc. There are various types of rainwater tanks available. Detached barrels and similar, subsurface tanks and basement tanks. The tanks come in many different sizes and with filters and pumps. Rain barrels and tanks are easy to install and connect to a downpipe. A new, separate rainwater pipe will have to be laid, if you want to use rainwater for your toilet or for your washing machine, and the work must be carried out by authorised professionals.
