Rainwater harvesting is the process of collecting and storing rainwater for later use. It is a sustainable and eco-friendly practice that can provide a source of water for various purposes such as irrigation, drinking, washing, and other household uses. A rainwater harvesting system typically consists of the following components:

Catchment surface: This is the surface on which the rainwater falls and is collected. It can be the roof of a building, a paved surface, or any other surface that can collect rainwater.
Gutters and downspouts: These are used to collect and direct rainwater from the catchment surface to the storage tank.
Leaf screens and first flush diverters: These are used to filter out debris and contaminants from the rainwater before it enters the storage tank.
Storage tank: This is where the collected rainwater is stored. The size of the storage tank depends on the amount of rainwater that is expected to be collected and the intended use of the water.
Pump and distribution system: This is used to distribute the stored rainwater to the desired location, such as a garden, toilet, or washing machine.

Presentation of a Rainwater Harvesting design

We have given several lectures to architects and project managers throughout Southern Africa on the planning and implementation of rainwater collecting systems. We give installation design guidance based on our expertise. Please refer to the presentation on our website. We communicate our main insights. Although it is far from exhaustive, it serves as a starting point for anybody interested in beginning rainwater gathering. In conclusion, it is worthwhile to do research and install well-designed and engineered equipment if you want to establish a rainwater collecting system that will integrate into the building's water supply and run without issue for many years.
