Tips to maintain a rainwater harvesting structure


Over the past few years, water has become precious and rainwater harvesting (RWH) systems have become the need of the hour. Though such RWH systems are mandatory to get permission to construct buildings in many cities around the country, environmentalists feel this is not enough, as it is equally important to ensure periodical maintenance of the structures.

Experts feel that people now construct rainwater harvesting structures in their houses just to get approval from the authorities. They also add that the govt should devise new plans with an ecological perspective and ensure rainwater does not go down the drain. However, many homeowners lament that lack of quality rainwater harvesting structures has forced them to create RWH systems using local materials which gives away easily.

The emergence of innovative rainwater harvesting systems like AquaStar has made life easier for homeowners. Unlike makeshift rainwater structures, AquaStar products are exclusively designed for rainwater harvesting. From stylish square-shaped rainwater gutters to block-free pipes and leaf guards to prevent blockages, all the products are made from high-grade virgin uPVC material. Lightweight but at the same time sturdy and durable, these structures last for a long time.

Find out how the AquaStar RWH system helps to maintain a resourceful structure

  • Gutters should be cleaned at regular intervals to prevent leaves and other elements from blocking the flow. However, if you are using an AquaStar RWH system, the innovative leaf guards prevent leaves from blocking and allow the free flow of water.
  • The cisterns should be cleaned regularly to prevent algae growth. Since AquaStar products are made from high-quality virgin uPVC materials, it prevents the growth of chemical substances.
  • The pipes should be painted for protection from the extreme weather and also to prevent rusting. AquaStar pipes are designed to withstand all weather conditions and last a long time. Since they are made from top-grade uPVC material, it is rust and corrosion-free.
  • While normal rainwater harvesting structures need periodic checks to ensure there are no gaps where insects can enter or exit, the AquaStar RWH system comes with tailor-made fittings that ensure perfectly sealed joints to prevent gaps and are 100 leak-proof.
