Rainwater Harvesting

RainBank® is an automatic controller for rainwater harvesting. Incorporated into the design of new homes or retrofitted to existing properties, RainBank® controls the water supply for toilet and laundry applications by automatically switching the water source from the domestic mains to rainwater when a demand is sensed and rainwater is available in the storage tank.

RainBank® is the first product to use rainwater as the water supply for toilet and laundry applications in metropolitan areas and control it automatically. It can save up to 40 per cent of a household's drinking quality water which is normally used in these applications thereby helping conserve Australia's precious water reserves.

SEAMLESS AND CONVENIENT
Rain Bank® does the thinking for you by automatically switching the water source from the domestic mains to the rainwater supply stored in the tank whenever a toilet is flushed or a washing machine used. If the rainwater supply is depleted at any time or in the case of a power failure, RainBank® automatically supplies mains water as the back up.
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
RainBank® only operates the pump to pressurise the rainwater when required. Energy costs are minimised as there is no double handling or re-pressurising of the mains water. Daily power consumption figures for a pump and RainBank® system supplying toilet cisterns in a three person dwelling is the equivalent to the operation of a reverse cycle 2,400W air conditioner for 3 minutes a day.
EASY TO INSTALL
RainBank® can be incorporated into the design of new homes or retrofitted to existing properties. RainBank® is available in kit form with a selection of three pumps.
SAFE
RainBank® has achieved the requirements of Standards Australia's draft Technical Specification ATS 5200.466-2004, for Rainwater tank connection devices. RainBank® also complies with AS3500, AS4020 and features Water Mark approval license number IPC20009, for connection to a drinking water supply.
