Project Overview
Smart Water Management for Secondary Residences.
In coastal and rural British Columbia, managing municipal or well water supplies efficiently often means separating potable requirements from non-potable uses. This guest house installation harvests rainwater off the roof to feed dedicated non-potable lines—drastically reducing main water consumption while taking advantage of BC’s abundant rainfall patterns.
- Dedicated Non-Potable Supply: Safely powers secondary uses including showering, laundry, and toilet flushing.
- Soft Water Benefits: Naturally mineral-free rainwater minimizes scale buildup in water heaters, plumbing fixtures, and showers.
- High Capacity Storage: Sized for local BC precipitation to ensure continuous supply during drier summer months.
- Self-Cleaning Filtration: Features integrated pre-filtration to maintain continuous low-maintenance performance.
