Offering a mix of Grade A office space, prime retail and luxury apartments the entire building covers 19,000m2. RHI Water provided the rainwater harvesting system for office WCs.
Rainwater harvesting system for office WCs in Scotland
RHI Water Ltd supplied a pressurised rainwater harvesting system to service all the WC’s throughout this six-stories of office space. A dedicated tank room adjacent to the underground car park houses two HYDRAPRO FT2 filters which is filtering the rainwater from the 2,000m2 roof above. This water is stored in a 30,000 liter sectional tank. From here the water is boosted to serve the WC’s via a multi stage filtration process and UV disinfection to ensure the highest quality water reaches the WC’s. All elements of the system are monitored and controlled by a HYDRAPRO SMART CPU control panel which minimises the use of high-quality mains water and provides valuable alarm monitoring outputs to the Building Management System.
The rainwater harvesting system assisted the 6 St Andrew Square building to deliver a quality, efficient and sustainable building which achieved a BREEAM “Very Good” rating. Looking for a solution for a rainwater harvesting system for office WCs? Contact us.
