It’s raining a lot, we might as well keep the water… Help that arrives at the right time in the Tarn

The end of April was rainy. The beginning of May is rainy… And this summer, of course, we will run out of water pretty much everywhere. So it’s probably still the right time to equip yourself with a water collector. A community of Tarn understood this well and proposed purchasing assistance.

“For any purchase of a water collector, you can benefit from assistance with the purchase of 75% of the purchase price within the limit of aid of €110”, announces the Albigensian urban community.

Also reduce discharge into the public network

This community of 85,000 inhabitants recalls that “rainwater which runs off the roofs before being collected in the gutters and sent into the rainwater network can
easily recovered for watering plants, vegetable gardens, cleaning terracescleaning tools…”.

“The reuse of rainwater contributes to reduce its rejection to the public collection network, preserve the resource in drinking water and save money on their water bill,” explains David Donna, deputy vice-president for drinking water.

Even on a balcony

To benefit from the aid, you must be of legal age and reside in the territory of the urban community, have sufficient space to install a recuperator (balcony, courtyard or garden), install the recuperator exclusively in the territory of the community. urban community and commit not to resell it for three years (under penalty of having to
return it to the urban community).

The aid request file can be sent to the Agglomeration electronically by completing the dedicated online form on the website of the Albigeois urban community: www.grand-albigeois.fr. Or by mail to: Communauté d’agglomération de l’Albigeois, CS 70304, 81024 ALBI CEDEX 9. Or by submitting the file to the water service, 40 avenue du Loirat in Albi.
