    Wonder what kind of water consumption rate to expect

    This is rainwater recycled!

      Sure, but you can only store so much rainwater and I haven’t seen rain in almost 2 months. In England! My plants would like some of the rainwater I have stored too and its very limited.

        The water drips down into the containment area where it’s pumped back up so I believe it is quite cyclical and efficient.

          Evaporative cooling means water is evaporating. With such a large area, potentially a fair bit of it.
