Contech Construction UrbanGreen Rainwater Harvesting System

By

Contech Construction Products’ UrbanGreen Rainwater Harvesting System harvests rainwater for nonpotable uses, including irrigation and toilet flushing. The system can be configured to meet site-specific needs, but often includes pretreatment, above- or belowground cisterns, treatment, disinfection, pumps, and control systems. Sources of water may include rooftop and surface drainage areas and HVAC condensation. UrbanGreen reduces runoff and contributes to LEED credits. contech-cpi.com
