5 Benefits of Installing a JoJo Tank on your property

Category Green Living

Installing a JoJo tank has become a priority for many homeowners. Many people see it as an indispensable addition to any home; an addition that is simply not optional anymore. With water scarcity and uncertainty on the rise, JoJo tanks offer peace of mind. Not only do they provide a sense of security when it comes to your water supply but it is also an eco-friendly way of saving water.

Potential homeowners are constantly looking for properties that can help them save money as well as the environment. A JoJo tank does both of those things at the same time. Here are 5 benefits of installing a JoJo tank. 

1) Installing a JoJo tank helps to save water

The primary purpose of a JoJo tank is to catch rainwater from your rooftop and store it for when you need it. This is one of the easiest ways of going green.

Green living is becoming a priority for many households as an attempt to create as little waste as possible. By installing a JoJo tank you are eliminating water wastage and you are saving water.

You can use this rainwater for almost everything like flushing the toilets or filling the swimming pool. You can even drink the rainwater if you purify or filter it beforehand! 

2) You can save on your water bill 

Arguably, the biggest benefit of installing a JoJo tank is that it can help you save on your water bill. Using the water from the tank means that you are not as dependent on water supplied by the municipality. You use less of their water so you save more money.

JoJo tanks can store up to 20 000 litres of water but even a small-sized tank can help cut costs on the bill at the end of the month.

3) Installing a JoJo tank increases the value of your property

As we previously said, many homeowners are going green so they look for properties with green features. A JoJo tank is a solid investment and one that will deliver returns once you decide to sell your home.

Potential homeowners who are eager to do their bit for the environment will pay a little bit extra if it means they don't have to rely on municipal water as much as their neighbours. It will also give potential homeowners peace of mind if they know they have access to water during water cuts or shortages. 

4) You don't have to worry about stock-piling water

When the floods hit Durban in 2022, many people were left without running water. This was a crisis that continued for days on end with stores not being able to meet the water demands of their customers. However, homeowners with JoJo tanks had an advantage because the rainwater landed comfortably in their water tanks.

Residents of Gauteng found themselves in a similar situation earlier this year when the Vaal dam flooded during torrential rains. Whilst floods might not be a general occurrence in the country, they do occur and it is better to be prepared at all times.

5) Installing a JoJo tank saves you from municipal water cuts

We all know how reliable (or unreliable) municipalities can be when it comes to water. Some areas experience severe water cuts for hours on end. Installing a JoJo tank means that you have a backup system when your water supply is interrupted.

Instead of having to wait for a water tanker to arrive in your area (and this can take a while!), you have water on demand. This way you can at least take care of the necessities until your water has been restored. 

Final thoughts

Installing a JoJo tank is a cost-effective way to have on-demand water at all times. It is an addition that will increase the value of your property and give you peace of mind when it comes to your water supply.
