If you have an average sized lot chances are you would be shocked to discover how many thousands of gallons of water run of into the storm drains. One inch of rain drained from a 1000 square foot roof will yield over 550 gallons of fresh, soft water.
Typically this water is drained through sewers and stored in underground aquifers to be resold to the public. In effect, you are paying the government for water you own.
Water rates are expected to quadruple over the next twenty years. Rationing is already a reality for some communities.
A.B. Companies offers installed Rain Harvesting devices and adoptions or installation of rain gutter systems to accommodate them. I first experienced these systems in Hawaii, where large parts of the islands are not connected to city water mains. Instead, each home has gutters that drain into large cisterns that serve the families shower and cooking needs.
In uncertain times, self reliance brings peace of mind. With the largest systems a home owner could store months of fresh water. With the deluxe installed packages a pump and float device is connected to the gardens bubbler system potentially reducing exterior household water usage to ZERO. Don't be mistaken, Southern California averages 14 inches of rain per year and only 4.5 inches per year are requires to make Water Harvesting practical.
Good for the environment and peace of mind.
