Diverting water from your roof into rainwater catchment systems has several advantages:
- Reduces the volume of stormwater
- Backup source of water during times of drought or between rain showers
- Naturally softened water – great for delicate houseplants, auto cleaning and window washing
- Saves money by lowering your water bill
We hope you’ll join us for this great workshop!
