Household

Delicate surfaces in particular, such as specialised car paints, benefit greatly from the use of rainwater. This is because rainwater is not only softer than drinking water, but also contains fewer minerals. The minerals in drinking water can leave a residue when cleaning or, in the worst case, damage delicate surfaces.

If you want to use rainwater for cleaning, you will first need a cistern to collect, filter and store the rainwater. You will also need a domestic water system pump and a pipe leading to a separate rainwater tap.

Using rainwater in the home is recommended for everyone, as it not only saves money by eliminating the need for harsh cleaning products, but also allows for gentler cleaning of surfaces. By combining rainwater with household uses such as flushing the toilet and doing the washing, you can create an efficient and environmentally friendly overall water supply system.
