Your personal resource for rainwater catchment and greywater recycling for your home.
Before getting started with rainwater or greywater harvesting, it is worth pausing to consider the following:
Are you interested in reusing your greywater?
1. Are you on a slab or a raised foundation
2. Is there a second story?
3. Are your water fixtures on an external wall?
4. How much laundry do you do in a week?
5. Do you have a top load or front load washer?
6. How many showers do you take a day?
7. How long are the showers?
8. Do you have low flow shower heads?
9. What do you want to irrigate with your greywater? Are there trees? Shrubs?
Are you interested in passive or active rainwater capture?
1. Do you have gutters installed?
2. How do you want to use your rainwater?
How many square feet is the floorplan of your house (single story)?
Are you interested in plastic/metal/cement tanks?
What is more important to you: aesthetics, utility or price?
