Hello everyone!
Unfortunately, I havenât found an answer to my question here yet, so Iâm starting a new thread.
We are currently building a new house and are considering whether a rainwater tank would be useful for garden irrigation.
However, we have no idea how many cubic meters are typically needed for watering the garden.
Do you know where I could find this information, or do you maybe have a rough estimate? (We will have about 500m² (5400 square feet) of garden.)
Thank you in advance!

Sorry, I meant the energy regulation (energy supplier). Since 1000 liters (264 gallons) cost 1.72 cents and the wastewater charges I still pay amount to about 5 cents, I donât have any information about the sealing fee, so I canât comment on that. If you can get such a tank very cheaply, it is definitely worth considering. For example, my father was given three 1 cubic meter (35 cubic feet) chemical tanks from an acquaintance.Hello, Perlenmann!
Now you had enough time to correct the incorrect information!
We can accept that you get your water from the energy supplier â but if the values above are correct, we would all move to your area immediately. Without more details, I would say you are off by a factor of around 30! If not, please specify the water supplier.

Tomtom. Hey Tomtom,
yes, my supplier (EVL) is also my water supplier.
Of course, youâre all welcome to move here if you find a nice spot.
And either remove the cents and write âŹ, or remove the comma (factor 100).
Hello, Perlenmann!
Youâre paying 5 euros per cubic meter of wastewater â thatâs really expensive!?
In North Rhine-Westphalia, the average is about half that!
I assume this also invalidates your statement that it doesnât make economic sense.
So: hole in the ground, concrete in, cistern finished â bimbimbim (freely adapted from Schiller).

perlenmann6 Sep 2011 08:22No idea what wastewater costs, where can I find that? My colleague just said, "it costs about three times as much as fresh water!"
But even so, you wrote that you paid 7k! Thatâs about 1200mÂł (1400 cubic yards). When are you planning to use that? Farmer?
