Rain water Channeling and Harvesting

Rain water harvesting
Rainwater harvesting is one of the simplest and oldest methods of self-supply of water for   households, having been used in South Asia and other countries for many thousands of years. Installations can be designed for different scales including households, neighborhoods and communities and can also be designed to serve institutions such as schools, hospitals and other public facilities.
Its uses include watering gardens, livestock, irrigation, domestic use with proper treatment, and domestic heating. The harvested water can also be committed to longer-term storage or groundwater recharge.
The main purpose of the rainwater harvesting is to use the locally available rainwater to meet water requirements throughout the year without the need of huge capital expenditure. This would facilitate the availability of uncontaminated water for domestic, industrial, and irrigation needs.
