Hi all.

We've a new house build. This is a super exciting project for my wife and I as it'll be our first project where we can decide and explore different ideas into creating a eco friendly luxury Airbnb. One of our ideas is a rain water collection system on top of the municipal water.

Attached is the image of how the water comes.

It starts from

1. Syabas water -> membrane filter -> two 300 gallon tanks that we have lying around from a previous project + water from the rain water collection -> 1.5HP water pump -> bathrooms x 4

2. Syabas water -> membrane filter -> 300 liter tank that is also linked to the rain collection system  -> 0.87HP pump -> UV filter -> LG water dispenser for drinking/ RO filter dispenser for cooking

The rain collection system has a bunch of filters too.

1. Roof -> RC gutter -> large item filter -> aquarium sponge filter -> rainwater tank -> pump -> sand filter -> membrane filter -> use tanks
The whole intention behind this is to see if we can scale this for use in a commercial setting.

Any input is much appreciated. We got this plan from Thailand where there is a pretty strong rain water collection community.

I just called SPAN earlier today for the possibility of using rainwater. rainwater requires treatment before you can use it even for toilet flushing and you cannot use the same piping for domestic incoming water.
This makes the cost of using rainwater not commercially feasible.
