How do rainwater harvesting systems work?
Rainwater is collected typically from the roof or in some cases at ground level via a hard standing permeable paving system. Water is then filtered and stored in the tank until required. Sizing a rainwater harvesting tank Burdens Environmental offer a range of tanks to suit both domestic and commercial applications. We can help you with sizing your tank. To help us please provide the following basic information: The surface area of your rainwater catchment area either roof, hard standing or both, the pitch of the roof and the optimum number of residents. It’s important to note that if 2 people live in a 5 bedroom house although only 2 people may require water, there is a potential for increased consumption requirements so please allow for the optimum number of residents. Grants & Funding There are no government incentives or grants for domestic rainwater harvesting kits at present. Commercial premises can qualify for a 100% capital allowance.
