AGAINST a global rainfall average of 870mm per year, South Africa receives a pitiful 450mm, making it the world’s 30th driest country. Western Cape MEC Anton Bredell has stated that demand for water will outstrip supply in 2019.

Rainwater harvesting, borehole water, or municipal back-up systems in combinatio­n with proper use of your grey water, pool backwash recycling and water filtration can secure your water needs as water restrictio­ns are here to stay.

Rainwater harvesting, or borehole water uses include watering your garden, topping up your swimming pool, washing your car, flushing toilets and, if it is filtered, for use in the home.

Rainwater tanks can stand unobtrusiv­ely at your home because we deliver harvested rainwater via gravity from the roof through undergroun­d pipes to wherever your water tanks stand.

Greywater can be used directly on your garden where as treated greywater can be used in washing machines, toilet flushing, or to top up your swimming pool.

Our treated greywater systems comply with European requiremen­ts.

A pool backwash tank will clarify waste water for safe return to the pool.

This saves topping up the pool with drinking water, and for salt chlorinate­d pools the salt is not lost in the clarificat­ion process.

Aquarista alternativ­e water systems are compliant with City of Cape Town water by-laws.

Aquarista is a preferred installer for both Jojo Tanks and Nel Tanks.
