Commercial buildings are ideal for Rain Catchment Systems because
of the huge
surface area available for capturing rain.
Using a Rain Catchment System for a supplemental water supply greatly
reduces monthly water costs. An estimated 5000 gallons of water is used
on a monthly basis to accommodate 100 people using the bathroom just
once a day.
Reduce the use of potable water by using rainwater for toilets, cooling
systems,
landscaping, fountains and washing cars, planes or golf carts.
Companies such as Lufthansa, Sony, Canon and Volkswagen have implemented
Rain Catchment Systems in either their offices
or production facilities.
Two terminals in a Singapore airport successfully harness enough rainwater
to meet the needs for
toilet flushing, fire fighting & air conditioning.
