Subsidy for disconnecting stormwater

Disconnecting means that you do not allow rainwater from paved surfaces of your building to flow through the downspout into the sewer system. You can get subsidies for collecting rainwater such as rain, snow and hail. For example, you collect the rainwater in: basins, water barrels, rain pond or underground cisterns. This disconnection subsidy is intended for private home owners, not tenants. The application goes through Waterklaar. At the WoonWijzerWinkel Limburg an advisor can help you with the subsidy application.

Description

In many places, rainwater flows through the gutter and downspout directly into the sewer system. This can cause flooding. On the website Waterklaar.nl/Parkstad/municipality Heerlen are many tips to prevent water nuisance. Together we will take up the challenge to stop the rainwater from draining into the sewer system and keep it where it falls. With simple means and a favorable subsidy scheme, you can make your garden water-ready.
