On-site non-potable water systems - Part 1: Systems for the use of rainwater
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 16941-1 standard focuses on providing guidelines for the implementation and management of on-site non-potable water systems that utilize rainwater. It covers various aspects such as design, sizing, installation, identification, commissioning, and maintenance of these systems. The standard recognizes the potential uses of rainwater for applications such as toilet flushing, laundry, irrigation, cooling, cleaning, and more in a wide range of settings, including residential, commercial, and industrial sites.
Furthermore, the standard emphasizes the importance of meeting certain minimum requirements for the constituent elements of these systems. This ensures that the systems are built and operated in a safe and efficient manner, while also promoting proper management practices for the reuse of rainwater. Compliance with this standard helps to reduce reliance on freshwater sources and contributes to sustainable water management practices.
