Saving Rain for a Rainy Day

HERE IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST, we are no strangers to rain. Whether or not you’re a fan of the frequent showers, have you ever stopped to think about where that rain ends up?

If you ask Northwest Rain Solutions, there are endless answers. Rainwater harvesting can increase potable water availability, help flush your toilets, water your lawns, and even fight fires.

“A lot of people struggle to find a reliable water source, a lot of wells have high amounts of iron and even arsenic,” says Melody Kuschnereit, Northwest Rain Solutions marketing and communications lead. “Rainwater is a lot more pure, plus it’s renewable.”

Established over a decade ago, Northwest Rain Solutions aims to tackle the water challenges of the Pacific Northwest including availability, access, quality, and quantity issues, says owner CJ Huxford. The mission is to find reasonable and affordable methods to promote sustainable development using on-site rainwater harvesting and stormwater management.

Testimonials

" We live on a hill in South Bellingham, and due to our home's location, we have sump pumps. The previous owner was an engineer, and he had installed sumps and a drainage system. In recent years it hasn't proved effective against some of the heavy rain we've had. After our efforts to add another drainage line three years ago, we woke up to about 1/2 inch inch of water in most of our lower level last week. We knew we needed a professional evaluation, so we contacted BIA, and they gave us NW Rain Solutions' phone number. CJ arrived within an hour, and walked through our downstairs and checked the outside drainage system. My husband was using a back hoe to inspect the sump and drainage pipes. CJ told us how he'd divert the water. We had a time crunch, and he was more than willing to come the next day. He got right into the trench and helped my husband shovel down to the foundation and build a much more effective drainage system. The project was completed in one day. We appreciated CJ's pleasant personality and professional expertise. " -M.M. & J.M.
