Rainwater Harvesting
“the accumulation and deposition of
rainwater for reuse on-site, rather than
allowing it to run off.”
ADVANTAGES
Reduce erosions and floods
Independent water supply
Supplemental in drought

GUTTERS CONDUITS
Channels all around the edge of a are pipelines or drains that
sloping roof to collect and carry rainwater from the
transport rainwater to the storage catchment or rooftop area to
tank the harvesting system

FIRST-FLUSHING FILTER
a valve that ensures that runoff from the used to remove suspended pollutants
first spell of rain is flushed out and does from rainwater collected over roof
not enter the system

STORAGE FACILITY RECHARGE STRUCTURES
could be constructed above Rainwater may be charged into the
ground, partly underground or groundwater aquifers through any suitable
fully underground structures like dugwells, borewells, recharge
trenches and recharge pits
