How Does a Rainwater Tank Save You Money?

Investing in a rainwater tank is not just good for the environment—it’s great for your wallet too! Here’s how it works:

1. Collect Rainwater:
• A rainwater tank collects and stores rainwater from your roof. This stored water can be used for everyday tasks such as watering your garden, washing your car, flushing toilets, and even doing laundry.
2. Reduce Mains Water Usage:
• By using rainwater for non-potable purposes, you significantly cut down on your reliance on mains water. This directly reduces your water bills.
3. Long-Term Investment:
• While there is an initial cost to install a rainwater tank, the savings on your monthly water bills will eventually offset this cost. Over time, the more you use your tank, the more you save.

Imagine cutting your water bill by up to 40% simply by making the switch to rainwater!

How Much Can You Save?

The amount you save on your water bills will depend on factors such as household size, local rainfall, and how much of your water needs can be met using your rainwater tank. On average, homeowners can save between 30% and 50% on their water bills by using rainwater for non-potable purposes. Here’s a breakdown:

1. Gardening & Irrigation:
• Homes with gardens or lawns can use rainwater for irrigation, reducing mains water usage by around 30% to 40%.
2. Household Use:
• Using rainwater for tasks like flushing toilets and washing clothes can add even more savings, helping you reduce water bills by up to 40%.
3. Large Homes & Farms:
• For larger homes or rural properties with high water demands (e.g., livestock or agriculture), rainwater tanks can save up to 50% or more on water bills.

Additional Benefits of Rainwater Harvesting
