Roof Rainwater catchment• Ideally should have:
– Good material for gutter (PVC, high grade aluminium)
– Solid clamp to attach gutter to the roof (carefull strong winf…)
– Large tank of 750L (15L/p/d * 50 person in shelter) – Tank has heavy duty tap, and 3 complete spare
tap to replace tap if broken– Tank elevated of 1m (above flood level)– Tank located close to roof– Cloth filter or mesh on top of tank to avoid
