Collect rainwater to help the environment

August 2010 RV Accessories by Rich Howard

RVers and other outdoor enthusiasts are notorious for their dedication to protecting the environment and preserving it for generations to come. Using a Handytank Rainwater Harvesting System is an easy way to be environmentally-friendly while you're away from home in the great outdoors.

These harvesting systems come in two sizes - a 120-gallon and 250-gallon. They attach to the gutters of your home and are made of a durable marine-grade PVC bladder supported in a durable, powder coated steel frame that clips together without tools. The frame and water-storage bladder are enclosed by an attractive black mesh cover.

For greater capacity, two or more systems can be plumbed together by a short length of garden hose or simply installed at each downspout. When empty, the Handytank system can be easily relocated or packed away and stored.

Installation is quick and easy and the units require little space.

Even roofs of small houses can benefit from a rainwater harvesting system, as roofs measuring as little as 1,000 square feet can collect up to 620 gallons of rainwater per year.

The harvested rainwater is ideal for watering lawns or for washing cars, RVs, boats and driveways - and, most importantly, it's good for the environment.
