The main benefit associated with rainwater or stormwater harvesting is that it is a sustainable water practice. It can be implemented by almost anyone. For example, a person could use a simple rain barrel. Or a comprehensive rainwater harvesting system could be integrated with commercial or household plumbing or an irrigation system.
Most people look at stormwater harvesting as a practice that is environmentally responsible and socially acceptable. At the same time, it promotes self-sufficiency. Here are a few other benefits that come from harvesting rainwater.
When rain falls on your property, it is free. The only cost you have to worry about is purchasing the cistern, rain barrel, or tank you will store the water in. If you are looking for a way to save money, harvesting rainwater is the way to go.
Many people do not realize how much water they use. Rainwater harvesting can be used as an educational tool. It is a great way to get people to see how much their home or business uses. Starting with water conservation is a great way to transition into a lifestyle that is more environmentally friendly.
There is also the benefit of having a backup water system in case of an emergency. For businesses and households, having this clean water stored can be beneficial in case of flooding, an earthquake, or other disaster.
