How Off-Grid Water Collection Works


Rainwater is collected from your roof, stored in a sealed tank, filtered, and supplied to your home at normal water pressure.
Rainwater can be used for:
- Toilets
- Laundry
- Garden taps
- Showers
- Kitchen (with drinking-water filtration)
Mains water remains available only as a protected backup, fully compliant with NSW plumbing regulations.
Can You Drink Rainwater in Sydney?



✅ Yes — when it’s treated correctly.
Drinking-water systems typically include:
- Sediment filtration
- Carbon filtration
- UV sterilisation
- Optional reverse osmosis at the kitchen tap
When designed properly, rainwater can be clean, safe, and great-tasting.
How Much Does Off-Grid Water Collection Cost in Sydney?
Typical Installation Ranges
- Garden / toilet / laundry systems: $2,500 – $4,500
- Whole-house rainwater systems: $4,000 – $7,000
- Drinking-water-grade systems: $5,000 – $9,000
💡 Rainwater tanks typically last 20–30 years, making this a long-term investment that reduces future water bills.
Why This Makes Financial Sense
💧 Lower water bills every quarter
🌱 Less stress during restrictions
🏡 Increased property appeal
⚡ Low running costs
🔒 Water security for your household
This is one of the few home upgrades that delivers ongoing savings and long-term value.

❌ Not suitable for most apartments or units
