In this atypical winter, in many areas of Spain it has not rained for a month. And if things don’t improve, we have a drought just around the corner. Because although during the year 2021 the country had rainfall above the historical average, consumption and the lack of rain this winter has left reserves at the minimum of the last ten years: below 40% of capacity.
And it is that, according to data from the National Institute of Statistics (INE), currently the average water consumption of households in Spain is more than 130 liters per inhabitant per day. A figure that continues to increase every year.
To make the most of rainwater, companies like Bosch have pumps that allow rainwater to be used to irrigate gardens, without having to draw water from the network.
In this sense, it must be taken into account that rainwater is perfect for watering the garden, since it does not contain lime or chlorine and has a neutral pH value.
The Garden Pump 18V battery-powered water pump allows you to distribute collected rainwater throughout the garden. This pump easily adapts to all types of water tanks and provides fast and efficient irrigation.
The Garden Pum 18V has a garden hose of up to 25 meters in length and a spray gun, and is ideal for watering any type of plant, tree or lawn, although it is also perfect for cleaning dirt thanks to its powerful jet. In addition, it has a timer function for sprinklers and automatic irrigation systems.
A perfect solution to reuse rainwater easily and simply, allowing households to reduce consumption and take care of the environment.
