Rain Water Harvesing
Rooftop rainwater harvesting is a method that involves collecting and storing rainwater from building roofs. Here are the key components and benefits of rooftop rainwater harvesting:
Components:
Catchment: The catchment area is the surface (such as a courtyard, terrace, or unpaved/open ground) that directly receives rainfall. It serves as the source of rainwater for the harvesting system.
Transportation: Rainwater from the rooftop is carried down through gutters and pipes to the storage or harvesting system. UV-resistant pipes are used for this purpose.
First Flush: A first flush device prevents contaminants from entering the stored or rechargeable water. It also helps clean silt and other materials deposited on the roof.
Filter: Filters are used to treat rainwater, removing turbidity, color, and microorganisms.
