Chicago Rainwater Harvesting Companies for Eco-Friendly Equipment
When a business owner becomes interested in more environmentally friendly procedures, this person may want to learn about commercial rainwater harvesting companies. Equipment for commercial buildings is more complicated and sophisticated than that generally installed in the residential environment.
Potential Purposes
Rooftop systems gather and filter water that can be used for applications like irrigation and toilet flushing. Depending on the business, this water could be suitable in the laundry.Relevant Statistics and Regulations
Some states and regions prohibit the gathering of rainwater, mainly because of arid and semi-arid conditions. Illinois receives a combined 73 inches of rain and snow annually, and the state of Illinois allows collection for non-drinking usage. In this type of climate, excess rain running into storm sewers serves no useful purpose. Equipment installation by rainwater harvesting companies can prevent millions of gallons from going to waste every year.Residential and Commercial Systems
In the residential setting, harvesting can be done with a basic gravity-fed irrigation system and diverting rain from downspouts into containers. Commercial equipment requires water transport through plumbing pipes or drains to filtration devices. From there, the water proceeds to storage tanks. Filtration screens also are placed over rooftop drains.Concluding Thoughts
Saving rainwater for various purposes is an eco-friendly activity appropriate for regions that get plenty of rain or snow. An increasing number of organizations have the equipment installed during new building construction or as an improvement feature later.
