Part B6 Rainwater services

Part B6 Rainwater services

Introduction to this Part

This Part sets out the requirements for any part of a rainwater service from the point of connection of the rainwater storage, to the rainwater points of discharge.

This Part applies to a rainwater service supplied by stored rainwater collected from a roof, where a separate cold water service is provided for drinking and personal hygiene from a Network Utility Operator's supply.

This Part does not apply to rainwater used only for irrigation purposes.

Where water provided by a Network Utility Operator is not available or not utilised as the primary water source for drinking and personal hygiene, roof collected rainwater is considered to be a cold water service supplied by an alternative source.
