Hello, we want to install a rainwater harvesting system for our house and garden project.
Does anyone know a good supplier with a good price/performance ratio?
It will be used for 3 (in a few years 4) people. Garden size about 150-200 m² (1600-2150 sq ft).
Is a 5000 l (1300 gal) tank sufficient?
With automatic or demand-based drinking water top-up?
Best regards, Caro

Hello,
A permit is not required for private use; however, it must be reported.
The reason for this is clear. Wastewater fees are calculated based on drinking water consumption from the public supply network 😉
It has been known that sometimes a pipe from a well ends up inside the house. In our area, well drilling companies receive a bonus from the authorities for reports if the homeowner has accidentally forgotten to submit the notification.
However, there have been cases where an old well already existed on the property and only needed to be rehabilitated 😉
Best regards.
