You can now do your bit to help our country’s struggling wastewater system. You may have heard the term ‘slow the flow’. This refers to strategies that temporarily store rainwater to reduce the risk of flood. When flooding occurs this can lead to sewer water being released into our rivers and seas. To help prevent this we need to capture the rainwater then release it back into the system slowly.
In your domestic environment you can use this accessory on your Dipping Tank, which will still harvest rainwater as before, but now it’s slowly released into the downpipe. Thus, slowing the flow of water into the wastewater system.
With a simple tern of the valve you change whether you store the precious rainwater for Dipping or slowly release it back into the wastewater system. A great idea is to help ‘slow the flow’ in the winter months then revert back to a Dipping Tank for the summer.
