It’s prudent to do extensive research and consider several factors if you intend to harvest rainwater for your home. Same day trades advise you to get more than three quotes from water tank suppliers, and you will be able to make a practical choice.

Apart from conserving the sources of drinking water from your municipality, harvesting rainwater helps in reducing stormwater from getting into rivers and creeks, causing pollution.

What is incorporated in a rainwater harvesting system?

This include:

  • The primary catchment area for rainwater is the roof from where water flows down the gutters. Making all the water from the top flow to your Adelaide rainwater tank effectively cuts on your water bills, irrespective of the size of your tank.
  • The collecting system consists of a mesh that sieves any debris before entering the gutters, a downpipe to the tank, rain head, and first flush for water diversion.
  • Rainwater tank and the supply components such as filters, pumps and controllers.

Kinds of Tanks.

  • Poly tanks are robust, durable and because they are manufactured as one whole piece, they have weak seams. Since they are rust-proof, same-day trades recommend them for people who reside near the ocean.
  • There are corrugated and stainless steel tanks. There is a flat-rolled metal that is coated. To prevent water from having a metal aftertaste, they are covered with a plastic lining in the inner layer. This enhances the water quality and the tank’s
  • Fiberglass can withstand harsh conditions, and the material used is chemical-free. It’s also rust-resistant but compared to other tanks; it’s not the cheapest. It can only be installed above ground.
  • Concrete tanks, costly to build and require heavy machinery to move them to their location if not made on site. However, it’s suitable for agricultural purposes. It doesn’t burn, blow up, and is rust-resistant.

The kind of tank you choose depends on several aspects, such as your budget and demand for water, which will give a clue of the capacity you need and where you will place the tank, above or below the surface.

Choosing Tank Size

The volume of the tank of your choice depends on the shape and size of your property. The different tank sizes include bladders, squat rounds, and skim lines. If you want to fit a tank in a thin section, a slimline tank would be suitable, while a squat tank will be best placed under a deck. As same day trades propose that if you want your tank out of sight, go for an under-floor tank or a bladder tank, though it’s costly.

While choosing the size of your tank, check:

  • What are your intentions with the harvested water
  • As a catchment area, what’s the size of your roof
  • Get to know the annual rainfall in your locality
  • Calculate currently the amount of water your household uses.

Once you get the above information, you can now work out the capacity of the tank you need. Work out how much you use in your household by looking at the last three water bills.

To have an efficient working rainwater system, get all the information you need before to make sure you are getting what you want and it will serve you for a long time.
