Water Recycling Course

Water Recycling Course

Much of the water we use does not need to be of drinking quality. In fact, studies show that 55 per cent of domestic treated water could be substituted for rainwater, while 85 per cent of water used for commerce and industry does not need to be of drinking standard.

 

With treated water in such short supply, it makes sense to look to other sources for many of our everyday needs. Rainwater and grey water can be safely used for a variety of non-potable purposes in and around the home, including flushing toilets, running washing machines, cleaning cars and watering the garden.

 

Rainwater and grey water can also be invaluable for industry – one of the largest water consumers –where it can be used for factory cooling systems, and cleaning vehicles and equipment, for instance.

 

Green Energy Academy has launched a course to train career changers / adult learners to designand install water recycling systems; this course is designed to compliment the wind and solar energy courses. The course will involve assessment and design, plumbing, basic electrics, theory and practical training. We recommend people with no experience in plumbing to look at our C&G 6129 Level 2 Plumbing Course before doing this program or our 4 Week Foundation Course in Plumbing.

 

Duration : 5 to 10 Days (depending on current plumbing knowledge)

Entry Requirements : Strong understanding of plumbing

 

Dates:

These courses are running on a weekly basis. Please call us to find out about availability. Spaces are limited!
