The water life cycle is a fascinating thing. Water comes an awful long way before it arrives in our homes. And once it’s drained from our houses, it travels a long way again! This infographic submitted by the drainage experts at ClearFirst, takes us through the entire water life cycle including where it travels to from your house and how it’s treated before returning to the environment.

The graphic also includes some interesting titbits about water. For example, did you know that after treatment, water can actually improve the cleanliness level of the river it’s sent to?
