rainwater is a renewable, sustainable and a high quality water source for your home.
In recent years, we are facing the problem of water scarcity more than ever. To avoid this problem, we should conserve or harvest the rain water which is mixing with sea water without any use.
The practice of rain water harvesting has been around for thousand of years and is currently growing in popularity throughout our communities.
In India, Tamilnadu was the first state to make rainwater harvesting compulsory for every building to avoid ground water depletion. It gave excellent results within 5 years, and slowly every state took it as a role model. Since its implementation, Chennai - the city known for its water scarcity, had a 50% rise in water level in five years and the water quality significantly improved.
Since rainwater is received directly through precipitation, it is often not considered suitable for drinking without treatment. As it may contain some dissolved pollutants.
The benefits of rain water harvesting are,
Increases ground water level,
Reduces the chance of flooding, and soil erosion,
Making use of a valuable resource that is FREE,
Can be used for Non-drinking purposes,
