Rainwater harvesting and collection is not a new concept by any standards. The practice has been around since ancient and biblical times. Joseph, from the bible, was thrown into a cistern by his brothers while they planned to sell him into slavery, later Joseph became ruler of Egypt. We cannot guarantee that you will be ruling any countries after your professional rainwater harvesting system is installed, but you can certainly be in control of how your FREE water will be used.Rainwater harvesting and collection is simply the practice of collecting rainwater that falls onto your property, it’s put into storage, then utilized for any outdoor water use. The water is not considered potable so it would not be used for drinking or consumption purposes. Rainwater harvesting and collection practices are historically ancient and completely relevant in today’s world. Rainwater collection is a lifestyle and common practice in many parts of the modern world, poorer countries and first world countries alike. Collection practices can range from the use of barrels, underground cisterns, above ground bins, troughs, among many other storage forms. The powers that be in our country use large reservoirs and lakes to provide water to the masses, and the practice of rationing and imposed droughts are becoming more and more commonplace. How rainwater collection is practiced varies greatly as well plastic sheets set out at the first signs of rain clouds, buckets or barrels set out, dug out pits, even mouths open to the sky is taking place in some parts of the world.Full Service Aquatics installs a system that is called “The Rain Bank”. The Rain Bank’s purpose is to capture, filter, and reuse the water that is harvested. Approximately 80% of rainwater from your property runs off your property into storm sewers never to be seen again or utilized by you. The average home can receive well into the 10’s of thousands of gallons of rainwater annually in which only a tiny fraction will be utilized by you for your property and watering needs. The Rain Bank can change all that; not only does our rainwater harvesting system capture the rainwater, it offers out of site storage for any size home or facility, the ability to reuse the water. The twist that Full Service Aquatics offers on these systems is that we can create beautiful water features (waterfalls, fountains, etc.) from the captured water, at the same time making that biologically purified water now available to the environment as well, allowing you the ability to actively participate is sustaining the environment by providing clean water to songbirds, small animals, amphibians, honey bees and a host of other animals that are rapidly losing habitat and water resources due to development.Your installation of The Rain Bank will also put you ahead of the curve for what is the inevitable harsh water use restrictions, water rationing, imposed droughts, and the REQUIREMENT for homeowners and new home builders to install rainwater capture and rainwater harvest systems. It also takes away the necessity to buy back that water that has run off your property, in essence keeping money in your pocket for what was already yours!Call FULL SERVICE AQUATICS, (908) 277-6000, today to learn more about the RAINXCHANGE system, and schedule your free consultation.
