10000 Litre Carat AA Silentio Rainwater Harvesting System
Product code
From £5,097.63 Exc VAT (£6,117.16 Inc VAT)
Product Description
The 10000 Litre Carat AA Silentio Rainwater Harvesting System from GRAF supplies rainwater to your toilets, washing machine and outside taps from a Carat XL underground tank. At 10,000 litres it suits a large household, a holiday let business or a small commercial building.
As a guide, British Standard BS 8515 suggests a tank of around 5% of the rain your roof collects in a year, which for the 10000 litre tank works out at a roof area of roughly 335 square metres. Used for toilets and laundry, it also holds around 18 days of supply for up to 11 people.
How the Carat AA Silentio System Works
A filter cleans rainwater on its way into the tank, and a floating intake then draws water from just below the surface. However, unlike a submersible system, the AA Silentio uses a wall-mounted Aqua Control Centre indoors. This single quiet, insulated cabinet holds the pump, the controls and the mains back-up.
When the tank runs low, the control unit switches to mains water through a built-in air-gap cistern. Therefore mains water never enters the tank or mixes with rainwater, so the system meets UK water regulations. In addition, a digital level indicator shows how much rainwater is left at a glance.
