How to create a rainwater prefabricated rain collection harvesting system systems complete with collection barrels. Otherwise, Rainwater collection is a way you can use your own barrel to conserve water that can or tank to house the collected be adopted by both private water. Ensure it is large homeowners and businesses. enough to handle the volume Harvesting water during of water collected. peak times of precipitation ensures water will be on hand during drought or when water restrictions are implemented. Making use of rainwater reduces reliance on underground wells or municipal water systems.

Harvesting rainwater also can help prevent flooding and soil erosion.

The average homeowner can collect thousands of gallons of rainwater each year. To learn just how much water can be harvested, as well as how many natural resources can be produced from that rain, visit www.save-therain.com, where men and women can calculate their rain collection potential by geographic location and average rainfall. Afterward, homeowners may be inclined to establish their own rainwater harvesting systems.

Here is how to get started.

LEONARD REAL ESTATE

* Purchase and install leaf guards. If your home is surrounded by many trees, you probably accumulate leaf and tree debris in your home gutters and downspouts. Leaf guards will help keep the gutters clear and increase water flow through the water collection system. * Create a water collection area. A portion of the gutter system should be removed so that it connects to the collection barrel or tank. As the rain falls, it will run down the roof and into the gutters before it streams into the downspouts. The downspout connected to the tank will deposit the water directly inside. Filters can be installed to help block the flow of debris. * Outfit the tank for overflow and water usage. A spigot and hose connection makes it easy to use the collected water for outdoor purposes.

Many rainwater collection systems are designed with an overflow safeguard that will prevent the water from backing up through the system. It will divert the rainwater back out of the downspout when the barrel or tank is full.

* Determine your roofing material. Potable water can be harvested from homes with sheet metal or slate roofing.

Clay or adobe tiles also may be acceptable. Asphalt, wood shingles and tar roofs may leach toxic chemicals into the water, making it unsafe for drinking. This rainwater may only be collected to use for irrigation methods or washing cars and outdoor A rainwater collection system items. harnesses a natural source of water to be used for gardens * Check gutter materials. and other outdoor purposes.

These colonies eat nonstop, dining on wood and other cellulose plant matter. They also eat materials made from plants, like fabric and paper.

Studies show that queen termites can live up to decades under ideal climate conditions while workers and soldiers live approximately one to two years.

home less hospitable to termites. Severely damaged wood may need to be removed and replaced.

Termites are problematic in many areas of the world.

These insects often stay hidden and do serious damage that can cost homeowners a fortune. Treating termites promptly is essential.

The basics of cleaning windows

After a long winter of snow and ice, many people are While there are many varieties of termites, all are silent ready for the warmth and sunshine synonymous with destroyers capable of chewing undetected through spring. But dirty windows can block that sunshine from housing structures. To eradicate termites, homeowners must first identify the insects and then contact a termite quite an undertaking, particularly in those homes with many windows on multiple levels. However, there are management specialist to address the pest problem. several time-saving tips available that can cut the work considerably.

Spotting termites Termites may not always be visible. Subterranean termite homes are usually formed in soil, where the termites build elaborate tunnel systems that channel through to above-ground food sources. Drywood and dampwood termites may live within the wood they consume and be undetectable until the wood collapses or rots away. Homeowners often realize they have a termite problem when they witness swarming termites.

At this point there already may be a mature colony at work damaging a home. Swarming, winged termites form in a mature, established colony. Winged termites emerge and fly off looking for mates. Afterward they will locate a new breeding site and form another colony, Patty Martinez Judy Powell potentially spreading infestations through multiple 815-499-0721 815-716-7450 locations. Winged termites are attracted to light and can be seen by windows and doors in spring.

Other signs of termites include accumulation of soil or dirt at the base of wood structures or the foundation of a home. There also may be fissures or cracks near wood surfaces. Sometimes â&#x20AC;&#x153;frassâ&#x20AC;? or termite droppings can be seen. They appear as rough, granulated sawdust.

Covered mud tubes, or channels of mud leading from the soil up the foundation of a home, are indicative of the presence of termites. Even if termites are no longer present in these tubes, that does not mean the termites have moved on. They simply may have chosen a new path to your home.

Keeping termites away Once termites have been identified, it is time to eliminate them. This means getting rid of water and food sources that are close to a home. * Repair leaky faucets and other water drips in and around the house. * Keep gutters and downspouts clean.

The squeegee helps to prevent streaks and cut down on the time it takes the windows to dry, all the while helping the windows to sparkle. * Window screens may be the culprit behind dingy windows. Hose down the screens with water to clean them, using a mild cleaning solution if water is ineffective. * Working with a partner can make the task go much more quickly. One person can clean the exteriors of the windows while the other does the interiors. * A mild dishwashing liquid diluted in water can cut through dirt and grime. For stubborn dirt, wash windows with diluted ammonia or vinegar. * Use a glass-cleaning tool to clean hard-to-reach windows.

Water damage to a home can cost thousands of dollars in repairs, particularly when it is not covered by standard home insurance policies. Sump pumps can help keep homes dry and safe.

Having a battery hooked up to a sump pump, or a backup sump pump that is battery-powered, can give homeowners peace of mind in any storm. A backup plan ensures the pump will still be able to remove water for a certain period of time until electricity is restored to the home. Another option is to make sure the sump pump is connected to a power generator should the main power supply go out. As long as the generator is running, the sump pump will expel the water.

Broker Associate 815-946-3999

t

When operating correctly, sump pumps are effective at removing water and keeping basements and crawl spaces dry. However, in the event of a power outage, which is common when strong winds accompany flooding rains, a sump pump is rendered useless unless there is a backup battery attached to the sump pump.

John Dorenbos

Jo Bryson

XXX CJSESFBMUZTFMMT DPN

Many sump pumps are hard-wired into a homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s electrical system and will automatically turn on when the water level in the sump basin has risen enough to trigger the pump. A flotation device built into the pump will rise enough to turn on the pump, which will then dispel the water until the device returns to its regular level.

815-499-1587

t

Sump pumps are frequently used in homes at risk of flooding or in homes where the water table is above the foundation of the home. Sump pumps remove water that has accumulated in a water collecting sump basin built into the foundation of the home. Water may enter through perimeter drains (French drains) built into the basement or directly through the sump basin itself. The pump will send the water away from the house through a series of pipes that could drain into a dry well, into a municipal storm drain or at the curb.
