Rainwater collected from Decra roofs is safe to re-use. As part of our strict testing program, Decra roof tiles are tested for the quality of run-off water and are proven to exceed the standards set by the World Health Organisation. Decra roof tiles do not add anything to the water, so whatever falls onto the roof is the same that runs off it. Many Decra Roofing System distributors also supply quality rainwater guttering making the collection of rainwater easier. However, before use, we recommend that the water should be filtered as leaves and twigs etc. can make their way into your storage tanks and could block pipework or pumps. Decra Regional Manager for Africa Mr. Joe Collins recently addressed a group of real estate developers in Africa, many of whom are long-standing devotees of Decra, to explain the benefits of harvesting rainwater from Decra roofs as investors and homeowners increasingly look to this technology as a way to future-proof their lives.
