    How do I know when my water filters are finished?

    Water Depot’s experts recommend replacing standard filters every 6 to 12 months to prevent bacteria build-up and unpleasant tastes in drinking water.

    Filter exhaustion depends on usage, with higher usage necessitating more frequent replacements. Factors such as family size can impact filter lifespan. If your water use is above average, water pressure decreases, water has an odd taste or smell, hard water causes scale build-up, or particles are present, it’s time to check your water filter.

    How do I know how big my borehole pump must be?
    Pumping water vertically can be a challenging task, requiring a more powerful pump for deep boreholes compared to shallow ones. As a rule of thumb, you will need 1 bar of pressure for every 10m of your borehole.
    What is a rainwater harvesting system comprised of?
    In a nutshell, a rainwater collection system is comprised of conveyance components like your roof and gutter; distribution components like pressure pumps, overflows, and other fittings; and protective implements such as first flush diverters, filtration systems, and coarse mesh.
    Is rainwater harvesting worth it?

    There’s more to the value of rainwater harvesting than simple cost-benefit analysis. In regions, whether urban or rural, where rainfall is seasonal, optimizing the benefits of rainwater storage is a practical solution to alleviate water shortage. Every time you turn on the faucet, the water comes from a complex supply system with pumps, pipes, and reservoirs.

    Utilizing a rainwater harvesting system means using less of this infrastructure and the energy required to operate it.

    What is a submersible pump vs. a solar surface pump?
    A submersible pump is named for its need to be underwater for operation, making it ideal for boreholes and wells despite higher installation and maintenance costs. In contrast, a surface solar pump remains above water, perfect for locations with a 10-meter water table depth. These pumps are easier to install and maintain than submersible ones, with plumbing attached to direct water flow from the source to the desired destination.
