WHY SAVE
RAINWATER!
Approximately 40% of water used in
summer is used outdoors which is when
most areas
face water shortages and have water restrictions. This water
shortage period is when plants and
trees require water the most. As
populations grow, water shortages
occur, more and more
cities are incorporating
metering systems as a way of monitoring and restricting
fresh water
wastage. Saving rain water saves money and
helps the Environment - The more
rainwater is
used, the less the need to
use chlorinated or other chemically
treated tap water. The more we
use rainwater, the less that
will go into storm sewers where it is mixed
with oil and other
toxic residues from streets, parking lots etc.


Advantages for the garden
Rainwater is at more favorable temperatures for plant
growth than cold well water, it is not chlorinated or treated with chemical as
most municipal water supplies are. Soft, pure, chemical-free rainwater
maintained at proper ambient temperature help plants grow vigorously. Cold
chlorinated water from most tap systems can shock plants and slow its growth.
Advantages for the environment
As water delivery systems age there is a greater need to
control bacteria that grow along the pipe walls. Extra chlorine or other
treatments are necessary to control the bacteria, this extra strength
chlorinated mixture can damage natures helpful soil micro-organisms which are
useful in the development of good healthy soil. It reduces chemical laden water
into storm sewers and may eliminate or delay the need for costly Dam expansions
or water conveying systems (approximatley 40% of water used during dry months is
used outdoors).
Watersaver kit - How it works
The average roof sheds 160 gallons of rainwater per hour during a moderate rain
fall. The Watersaver
is designed to capture some of this water. Rainwater flows from the roof into
the gutter downspout and gets captured in the Watersaver reservoir. When
the reservoir, fills the water then takes the path of least resistance which is
the units lower exit spout that leads, via a hose, to the rain barrel
(container). When this barrel is full, back pressure occurs and the water then
exits out of the upper exit spout into the normal drainage system.
Note: Will fill 55 gallon rain barrel
in 2 to 3 hours during a moderate rainfall.
