Abstract

The rainwater harvesting system comprises at least one rainwater storage tank 9 located in an attic or roof space 35 of a building. Rainwater from the roof is fed into the storage tank(s) in the roof space. The collected water is then fed by gravity throughout the building for use with washing machines, for car washing or watering the garden, without the using any electricity. The tanks may extend the whole length of the roof and may be substantially triangular in cross section. The system may comprise a filter and level sensor. The level sensor may control a mains supply to the tanks should the level fall to low.
