Looking after Rainwater Tanks & Simple Greywater systems

This hybrid event is organised by Renew's Sydney Branch, and kindly supported by Inner West Council.

The mains water supply to our house needs no maintenance from the occupant - they just need to pay their water bills. In contrast, a rainwater harvesting system needs cleaning and maintenance to ensure the quality of water delivered is fit for purpose. Sydney Water have some videos on their website here explaining some of those maintenance tasks. Come along and learn what those cleaning maintenance needs are and how frequently they are required. You will also hear about what to consider if you want to install a simple greywater system in your yard.

Please note that this is a hybrid event. You can book tickets to either view the discussion online or attend in person.
