Rainwater harvesting

Water has always been and continues to be a vital element for the normal development of our lives, making it a very precious commodity.
Today they continue to develop rainwater harvesting systems , which generate significant savings in applications such as bathrooms, fire fighting systems and irrigation.
When you have a rainwater harvesting system, rainwater is channeled into a storage tank, where it can remain drinkable for many months.
The feasibility of installation has been verified rainwater harvesting system , based on the cubic meters of water that fall per year in the area in question and the available collection surface, the rainwater harvesting systems must be selected according to the needs:
Outdoor modular tanks. Outdoor rainwater recovery tanks.
These types of tanks allow large quantities of water to be stored without having to undertake major works or excavations. They usually store up to 1000 litres of water per unit and allow several units to be coupled together in case more storage capacity is needed. An example of this is our 1,600 litre rainwater or drinking water tank that can be connected to a battery.

Rainwater tanks dispensers
They are deposited connected to the rainwater drainage system, which allows water to be collected and dispensed when necessary, they are handled in low storage capacities for domestic and gardening uses, they do not exceed 500 liters, but they have the advantage of being able to easily dispose of the collected water and that its dimensions allow it to be aesthetically integrated and even be a decorative piece in itself. One of them is the Economical 210 litre round rainwater tank.

Rainwater tanks for burial . Underground water tanks.
These buried water tanks They allow large quantities of water to be stored without affecting the view, but since they are underground they require a much more complex and expensive installation, so it is best to plan them at the beginning of construction.

Decorative rainwater tanks
They are medium-sized elements connected to the rainwater collection system, but designed with an aesthetic and decorative value, and can take the form of large vases or flower pots, and are capable of storing even more than 600 litres.

Rainwater filters
The more effective the system is, The more you filter rainwater , the wider the range of applications for the collected water. Depending on the need, there are different types of rainwater filters. The most complete and advanced ones are capable of thoroughly filtering the solid contents of the water and discarding the first few liters collected, since they drag the surface dirt along; some offer the possibility of making the water drinkable. There are also options available that are easier to install, which allow the water to be cleaned sufficiently to be used for irrigation and cleaning, while at the same time taking care of the storage system.

Benefits of the rainwater harvesting
In addition to the obvious reduction in water consumption and the corresponding economic savings, this can translate into savings in the electricity that is normally used to deliver drinking water to our homes or offices.
It is sustainable
Collecting rainwater is sustainable, as it is a real solution to the problem of water shortages.

With a system to collect and store rainwater, a primary need can be met without compromising the environment, the economy, the community or the space where it is installed. Rainwater harvesting systems are characterized by achieving their objectives by managing these resources very well, respecting nature.

He rainwater It is of high physical-chemical quality. It does not have chemical residues such as chlorine or lime, although its direct consumption is not recommended. You can use it to water plants, because it does not have mineral residues or chlorine and is fantastic for their care. You can also use it to wash clothes, and in household cleaning activities and more.

You will be able to water plants during dry seasons.

This way you will have enough water to face the hot season; with the rainwater harvesting system you can solve the problem of water supply in your home permanently and it will allow you to reuse rainwater and store it until you need it.
