Rainwater harvesting experts Kingspan Water has launched a Rainwater Harvesting Guide.
Rainwater harvesting is not a new concept. Since earliest times, mankind has captured rain in order to provide a simple and accessible supply of fresh water.
With the introduction of mains water supply, rainwater harvesting methods in the developed world have been largely reduced to the use of garden waterbutts. In most buildings naturally clean rainwater is left to wash away while expensive purified water is used for all applications with only a fraction being used for potable-use.
In recent years it has become harder to ignore this illogical way of using our natural resources. Water has become a valuable commodity. Increased awareness of the environmental issues surrounding water reserves, drainage and a cultural shift towards sustainability have also meant that rainwater harvesting is more effective and significant than ever before.
