Rainwater Harvesting is the process of collecting, filtering, storing, and using rainwater:
• Reduces the amount of runoff that enters our streams, rivers, lakes, and oceans
• Reduces demand for potable water.
• Harvested water can be used for irrigation, toilet flushing, and cooling tower make-up water
• Is a “Green Solution” for managing stormwater
Solution » A rainwater harvesting system cleans stormwater and stores it for reuse in applications where potable water is typically used. A mechanical system then pumps the stored water while also providing the required level of filtration and disinfection. By implementing rainwater harvesting, stormwater runoff is reduced while also reducing the demand for potable water.
