Two 2,500 gallon tanks arrived and were rolled into place today. It took five men to roll the cisterns up a ramp and into the garage, stand them up on end in the deepest part of the garage, and then move them into place.
The building will reduce potable water use by 65% over a standard building through the use of low-flow plumbing fixtures combined with a rainwater harvesting system used for toilet flushing and irrigation of the green roof. The cisterns will provide for 95% of toilet flushing needs over the course of a year. This is projected to save over 36,000 gallons of fresh potable water annually.
