Rainwater tanks for your Australian home
Posted on June 23, 2021Rainwater tanks are a common sight across Australia.
From slimline designs tucked snugly in narrow spaces on suburban blocks to large tanks collecting water from rural roofs, they’ve been part of our lives for generations.
These trusty tanks provide undeniable value for people in cities, towns and the country. While some people select rainwater tanks to achieve a more sustainable life, for others they are an all-important water storage that’s central to survival.
The benefits of installing a tank include:
- Saves you money. Instead of paying for water from mains supply or carting it in, you can harvest rain off your roof for free and store it safely for future use. The savings can be significant;
- By using rainwater supply for toilets, washing and gardens, there is reduced demand on urban water storages;
- Boosts sustainability and helps drought-proof communities. These tanks are a valuable supply option when reservoir levels drop and water restrictions bite;
- Reduces pressure on overworked stormwater drainage systems;
- And provides access to clean drinking water sourced from harvesting rain. For many people in rural Australia, rainwater tanks are their sole source of drinking water.
