Rainwater Harvesting System Installation Services
Site Assessment and Design
We begin by visiting your property to evaluate the best location for the rainwater harvesting system. Our team measures roof size, slope, and catchment area to estimate water collection potential. We consider your water needs and local regulations.
Then, we create a custom system design tailored to your situation. This includes deciding on gutters, downspouts, storage tanks, and filters. We explain the design clearly so you know what to expect. Our goal is a system that works efficiently and fits your budget. We also check for any obstacles that might interfere with water flow.
Catchment and Gutter Installation
We install gutters and downspouts to channel rainwater from your roof into storage. Our team uses durable materials resistant to weather damage. We seal joints carefully to prevent leaks.
The system is sized to handle heavy rain and avoid overflow. We clear debris and set up first-flush diverters to improve water quality. Proper slope and positioning ensure water moves smoothly. We test the system after installation to catch any problems. This step helps protect your home’s foundation by directing water away safely.
Storage Tank Setup
We install storage tanks where you choose, making sure they fit your space and needs. Tanks can be above or below ground and come in various sizes. We use food-grade or UV-resistant materials to keep water clean. Our experts connect tanks to the gutter system without leaks.
We install overflow pipes and access points for cleaning. We also add protective covers to keep out debris and insects. After setup, we inspect the system to ensure proper water flow. This allows you to store water safely for your use.
Filtration and Pump Systems
We add filters to remove leaves, dirt, and other impurities from collected water. Filters protect your water from damage and improve quality. Our team installs pumps to deliver water where you need it, such as irrigation or household use.
Pumps are selected based on your water pressure and volume needs. We connect controls for easy operation and maintenance. Our system design helps prevent pipe blockages and damage. We test everything thoroughly before finishing. This service helps you use harvested water reliably.
Installation Process
3. Installation and Testing
Once the design is approved, we begin the rough-in phase by installing pipes inside walls and under floors before fixtures go in. This includes both water supply and drainage systems. After pipes are installed, we perform pressure tests to check for leaks and drainage tests to ensure waste moves properly. Any issues found are fixed before finishing work begins. Finally, we set the fixtures, connect appliances, and run final checks to confirm your plumbing system works safely and efficiently. We leave your home clean and your system ready for use.
1. Initial Consultation and Planning
We start by visiting your property to understand the layout and your water needs. This helps us decide where to place the tank and how much water you can collect. We check your roof size and slope because these affect how much rainwater you can capture. During this phase, we discuss your budget, goals, and any local rules about rainwater systems. We also identify the best locations for gutters, downspouts, and storage tanks to maximize water collection without harming your property.
2. System Components Selection
You choose from different tank sizes, materials, and delivery options based on your space and needs. We explain the pros and cons of options like plastic barrels, ferro-cement tanks, or underground masonry tanks. We select filters, first-flush diverters to keep debris out, and pumps if you need water pressure. All components are chosen for durability and ease of maintenance. This ensures your system stays reliable through many seasons.
