For most of the premises and even countries, the components and design are more or less similar. The only change lies in its structuring, its measurements and the use of materials for the components. Deciding over these on your own may become a little complicated since it requires certain expert understanding and calculations. For this purpose, hiring expert services of <strong><u>professional rainwater consultant<\/u><\/strong> would be the best option.\u00a0 Let\u2019s us first understand the factors that we need to look in to while planning for rainwater harvesting system:<\/p>\n<h2><strong><u>Factors to consider for rainwater harvesting system:<\/u><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>1)\u00a0\u00a0Size of Tank<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The size of the water storage tank is of high importance. Though it may seem simple, the decision can only be taken after making certain additional considerations such as the size of the building, location, annual rainfall, demand of the premises, budget, for how long the tank will only be partly full, etc.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2)\u00a0Appropriateness of the tank for the property<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0rainwater harvesting tanks are classified on the basis of material used and installation mode. The neighbourhood may also impose limitations on what sort of tank can be used. For example, on an industrial site, the above-ground tanks can be a matter of concern.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3)\u00a0Size of the roof or catchment areas<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The whole rainwater harvesting system revolves around this one factor- the size of the catchment area. The size of gutters, the capacity of the water tank, the system of pipes, and everything else will be planned once the size of roof or catchment area is determined.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4)\u00a0Location of Tank<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Installing a tank at the appropriate location is important to have a well-connected system and uninterrupted supply of stored water. The roof void of a building is considered to be the ideal location to place rainwater harvesting tanks, but this is usually impossible, as in such a case, the guttering would generally be located below the level of the tank. Also, the weight of the tank may pose additional problems. Another difficult decision is regarding the placement of the tank- above-ground or underground. This requires considering additional factors such as weather conditions of the place.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5)\u00a0Rooftop rainwater filter : \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Level of rainwater through the filter unit and the tank itself has an impact on the downstream drainage system, which is again, a vital consideration for installation of the RWH system. Hence, it must be considered carefully.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6)\u00a0The potential demand<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The intention of rainwater is to provide an incessant water supply for the occupants. Hence, the potential is another substantial factor. The potential occupancy of a building is the key here. While insufficient water storage for higher demand is a problem, similarly, having a large storage capacity with only minimal water level to provide supply to, say, 5 or 6 people, is again a wastage of resources.<\/p>\n<p><strong>7) Future demand<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The design of the rainwater harvesting system must keep scope for the future enhancements, based on the increasing or decreasing demand for water supply, in the future.<\/p>\n<p><strong>8)\u00a0The Overall drainage scheme<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If the drainage system of a site is intended to meet a peak discharge limit, the rainwater harvesting tank must be designed accordingly. Also, in a household, the structure of sewer pipes must be studied to avoid any collision with the rainwater harvesting conduit system.<\/p>\n<p>For the aforementioned factors, a bespoke solution is required, for your rainwater harvesting needs. A rainwater consultant is what you need, to guide you with the best solution.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2644 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vardhmanenvirotech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/92.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vardhmanenvirotech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/92.png 720w, https:\/\/www.vardhmanenvirotech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/92-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong><u>Rainwater Harvesting Service includes:\u00a0 <\/u><\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Studying the site with respect to Techno-commercial feasibility<\/li>\n<li>Preparing (rainwater harvesting) feasibility report<\/li>\n<li>Designing site specific rainwater harvesting system<\/li>\n<li>Preparing detailed engineering drawings<\/li>\n<li>Conducting Hydrogeological survey<\/li>\n<li>Conducting Bore well survey<\/li>\n<li>Providing a feasibility Report<\/li>\n<li>Checking water distribution systems<\/li>\n<li>Tank designing<\/li>\n<li>Determine rainwater usage potential from water demand<\/li>\n<li>Finalize rainwater recharge requirement<\/li>\n<li>Suggest Rooftop rainwater filter<\/li>\n<li>Suggest the optimum recharge structure suitable to site<\/li>\n<li>Ensure proper hand holding to contractors<\/li>\n<li>Train the stake holders to maintain Rainwater resources live.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2645 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vardhmanenvirotech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/93.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vardhmanenvirotech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/93.png 720w, https:\/\/www.vardhmanenvirotech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/93-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>What is water Conservation?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Water Conservation is the practice of using water efficiently to reduce unnecessary water wastage.
