The story

With drinking water shortages looming, even in water-rich countries like the Netherlands, and climate change bringing longer dry spells and heavier rains, the need for smart water solutions is urgent. Mark and Elvira Rotteveel wanted a better way to dramatically reduce both drinking water demand and wastewater output in their home.

When we started build our new house in 2023, our goal was to save as much drinking water as possible. We combined a rainwater storage and purifying system with a Hydraloop H300. Because of the Hydraloop, it’s possible to use the rainwater 2 times and safe as much as drinking water as possible (more than 90%!).

Mark & Elvira Rotteveel.

How it came to be

The solution.
As part of a groundbreaking 10-year pilot, the Rotteveels combined a Hydraloop H300 unit with MijnWaterFabriek's SafeWater technology to create a fully circular water system. Rainwater is collected via a coarse filter into a 10 m³ tank and purified for use in showers, baths, sinks, and the garden. Hydraloop treats greywater from the showers and baths, making it safe for a second use in the toilets and washing machine. Only the kitchen relies on mains water.

The result.
This smart, two-stage system cuts drinking water use by over 90% and reduces wastewater output by 40%, while continuously monitoring water quality and performance. Every drop is reused intelligently, transforming the home into a living example of circular water innovation.

"To live as sustainably as possible, save drinking water, capture stormwater, and inspire others to integrate sustainable water solutions in their home or project. We want to be a motor for the water transition we are facing!" — Mark & Elvira Rotteveel

How it works in this home

1

Greywater is collected automatically

Water from showers and the bath flows directly into the unit — no extra effort, no change to daily routine.

2

Cleaned on-site, without chemicals

The patented aerobic bioreactor removes bacteria and impurities to NSF/ANSI 350R standard. No filters to replace, no chemicals added.

3

Reused for toilets and laundry

Treated water is automatically routed back for toilet flushing and the washing machine — saving up to 45% of fresh water, every day.
