Information for Builders & Developers ...
PlumbTank are rainwater harvesting experts in water saving solutions. Working closely with Builders and Developers they create, manage and install rainwater harvesting systems within local regulations. With changes to legislation throughout Australia, the installation of water tanks is now mandatory on many new homes and renovation projects. Plumbtank (Aust) assists in this process, working closely with Builders and Developers to create, manage and install rain water harvesting systems that comply with local regulations.
Plumbtank (Aust) are rainwater tank experts, reflected through our continuing partnerships with some of Australia's most prominent building companies that have engaged our services to provide solutions to suit their clients’ needs.
The Plumbtank team works with builders and developers to install rainwater tank systems to any new building, extension, or renovation, providing a professional and hassle-free watertank installation.
A water tank system that is connected to both internal and external fittings on a new home provides significant water savings. Connection of the rainwater tank to laundry (cold-water supply) and toilets within a new home reduces the demand on mains water supply. When coupled with a mains water back-up system, ensuring an uninterrupted supply, the rainwater within the tank is continually being drawn-down, gaining maximum use from the tank.
Rainwater Harvesting can present significant benefits for land developers, providing a reduction in stormwater runoff from impervious surfaces. The reduced stormwater runoff can result in benefits such as;
- Reduced stormwater pipe quantities leading to reduced infrastructure costs
- Increased lot yield via a reduced need for constructed wetlands or ponds
- Reduced maintenance of stormwater infrastructure
- Reduced erosion through a reduction of in-stream flow in peak rainfall periods
- Reduced flooding risks
The installation of rainwater harvesting systems can also provide a significant reduction in mains water usage, resulting in a positive contribution toward alleviating the growing water problems in many areas, through reduced mains consumption and an increased awareness.
