Rain Harvesting
Why should you start Rain Harvesting ?
An obvious reason for Rain Harvesting is to save money, by using less tap water that you pay for, and it helps the environment. Depending on the size of your homes roof and the amount of rainfall in your area, you can collect a substantial amount of rainwater with a simple system. For every inch of rain that falls on a area of 1,000 square feet, you can expect to collect approximately 600 gallons of rainwater. The water harvested can have a significant impact on your water bill. The use of rainwater combined with the domestic use of grey water can further increase your savings. Even if you live in a rural area and have your own well, the fact that rainwater is a naturally soft water may be enough to justify harvesting rainwater.
Rainwater stored in rain barrells has many uses. Most people use it for watering their yards and gardens. Others find uses within the house as well. Rainwater can be used for drinking but requires special treatment with a filtration system. Note that many cities require the filtration system for drinking water to be certified and the water to be tested on a regular basis. You do not need a filtration system for landscape uses. You can use it directly from your rain barrel on your garden.
If you’re harvesting rainwater with Rain Collection Barrel to use for watering your landscaping, the rainwater can help to improve the health of your gardens, lawns, and trees. You can water your plants more often from your Rainwater Harvesting System, and rainwater is a naturally devoid of minerals, chlorine, fluoride, and other chemicals. For this reason, plants respond very well to rainwater. After all, plants in the wild never ask for tap water!
