Transcript of Rain Water Harvesting for Homes
Rain water harvesting goes back to the third century BC where farming communities used it for irrigation purposes. It involves storing rain water in a tank rather than allowing it to runoff. in order to preserve it for future use. In some households the water collected is directed into a deep pit to percolate. Rainwater harvesting systems can be installed with minimal skills. The system should be sized to meet daily water consumption.
Rain water harvesting
systems collects the
water using the home's
gutter system from the
rooftop and directs it
into the cistern
through numerous
downspouts.
Households utilize the
stored water for
watering the garden,
irrigation, water for
livestock, laundry, and
other usages.
Collecting water helps to reduce your water bill and conserve water. This is especially advantageous in regions receiving scanty rainfall as it provides an additional source of water supply during droughts, and reduces demand on wells in developing countries.
Cisterns are commonly used
in areas where water is scarce
as they are often built to catch
and store rainwater. Cisterns
are different from water tanks
as they are not completely
sealed, can be placed almost
any location around the house
and should be secured
properly. It will be advisable
to incorporate it into the floor
plan of your home at the
design stage in order to keep
structural support for the tank
and other surrounding factors
in mind.
Solar Pump System be
applied to daily use (rain
water or ground water) for
the home usages. Solar
water pump system is
dispensed with energy
storing devices, and can
pumps the water around the
residence. Recent years, with
utilization of solar energy is
being used in municipal
engineering, city centre
squares, parks, tourist sites,
hotels, landscapes,
irrigation and in residential
areas.
