Methods of Rainwater Harvesting - Components, Transport and Storage 08

There are two main methods of rainwater harvesting: surface runoff harvesting and rooftop rainwater harvesting. Rooftop rainwater harvesting involves collecting rainwater that falls on the roof of a building or house. The key components of a rooftop rainwater harvesting system are the catchment/roof area, transportation gutters and pipes, a first flush diverter, and filters to clean the water before storage. The collected rainwater can then be used for purposes like gardening and irrigation.
