How RainBank works -
When an appliance like a toilet or washing machine is being filled, RainBank detects the water beginning to flow along the pipes and pumps rainwater if it is available - effectively switching the water source from the domestic mains to the rainwater supply.
If the rainwater supply is exhausted, RainBank switches off the pump and allows mains water to flow.
