Rain water Harvester Catcher Equipment
Rainwater Harvesting system for all
Rain Catcher components required for both domestic and
commercial use.
We provide rainwater harvesting systems for domestic use as well as for
schools, offices, industrial and agricultural buildings. Systems can be fully
automated so they only activate when water is needed and can revert back to
mains if there is no water in storage.
We supply complete systems and parts: commercial and
domestic ; direct and indirect systems, downpipe filter 'FirstFlush type', tank
overflow traps, suction filter kits.
Here are some Roof Catchment examples.

The ballpark formula for calculating how
much you can collect (for next to nothing) is this:
Rainfall in mm X Catchment Area in M2 X
Efficiency = Water in Litres
or
1mm rainfall over 1 square meter catchment delivers 1
litre of water.
The .85 is because of different surfaces collect in differing amounts.
Also the first flush is dumped by our 'First Flush' system.
There will also be other losses like overflow and/or leaks.
It still works out to a huge amount of water for nothing.
Polokwane annual rainfall is listed as 495mm. A fairly dry place.
So, Just collecting off a single carport roof for example.
10 X 5 metre roof = 50M2
Then: 495 X 50 X 0.85 = 21,037.50 Litres
of pure free water for the year
from a single carport roof!!
A single rainshower for same catchment area but 15mm rain (common Shower):
15 X 50 X0.85 = 637.50 litres in that 20 minutes or so.
What do you pay for a litre of water at the
mall? For the commercial bottlers this is known, for good reason, as FREEWATER!
