A rain barrel is a container designed to collect and store rainwater runoff from rooftops for later use, such as watering gardens, lawns, or washing vehicles. Typically made from durable materials like plastic, rain barrels help conserve water, reduce utility costs, and contribute to sustainable gardening. They often feature spigots for easy access to the stored water and can connect to gutter systems for efficient rain collection.

Yes. Our whole-house filtration units remove heavy silting, iron, rust, suspended impurities, and chlorine from borewell supply. If your water also has scaling hardness (calcium/magnesium above 250 ppm), our system seamlessly integrates with the Aquilus central water softener.
Depending on incoming water quality and usage volume, primary sediment cartridges operate for 6 to 12 months. Deep-bed carbon and media vessels run efficiently for 2 to 3 years with regular periodic backwashing.
Our units feature high-flow 1" and 1.5" multiport bypass manifolds that deliver zero noticeable pressure drop across showers and overhead faucets. Professional installation support and site commissioning are coordinated across all major cities.
