Why Rain Water Harvesting? Rainwater harvesting is a technology used to collect, convey and store rain from relatively clean surfaces such as a roof, land surface or rock catchment for later use. This is water that would otherwise have gone down the drainage system, into the ground or been lost to the atmosphere via evaporation. The water is generally stored in a rainwater tank or directed into mechanisms that can recharge groundwater. Rainwater harvesting can provide water for human consumption, reduce water bills and lessen the need to build reservoirs which may require the use of valuable land. |

Rainwater harvesting is one of the most promising alternatives for supplying water in the face of increasing water scarcity and escalating demand. The pressures on water supplies, greater environmental impact associated with new projects as well as deteriorating water quality in reservoirs already constructed, constrain the ability of communities to meet the demand for freshwater from traditional sources. Rainwater harvesting presents an opportunity for augmentation of water supplies allowing for self-reliance and sustainability. Sustaining the environment contributes to the overall conservation of our precious natural resources.
Simple rainwater harvesting systems, such as rain water accumulation tanks, are great for collecting small volumes of water for use in residential gardens or for watering plants around the home. However, to fully reap the benefits of the huge amounts of rain that run off a roof during a storm, a fully-integrated rainwater irrigation system should be considered. With such a system, rain water passes from a roof, through a gutter system, into large cisterns (water tanks) and gets distributed through common underground sprinklers. Since a properly designed system does not rely on any groundwater resources, most installations can be exempt from certain watering restrictions. In fact, many local and regional water resource officials encourage the harvesting of rainwater as part of responsible conservation practices.

Rain Water Harvesting
Advit foundation offers easy and economic Rain Water Harvesting services because ground water is a very valuable commodity us. It is recovered from wells for domestic, industrial and agricultural use. The conservation of ground water is very important because it moves from soil and many years may be required to replace hastily pumped water. Therefore, in the areas where ground water is used extensively, care must be taken that no extra water is withdrawn in a year than the quantity replenished by natural process.
To avoid depletion of ground water level, the aquifers (ground water bodies) must be recharged in whichever way possible. There is an urgent need for Rain Water Harvesting since that is the only source of ground water.
