The importance of the planet’s renewable resource – water, is no matter of debate or ignorance and just as important is the need to address the storage of rain water. Rainwater storage is a solution to devastating drought and the water shortage faced during the summer months. Rainwater is our primary source of the elixir of life and beyond ground water, the draining of the resource into the sea is of no viable consequence. This natural, renewable resource is also naturally stored by way of underground water that is alter sourced from wells and tube wells and bulbous plants that make the stored water available to the plant itself and animals.

Rain storage options are many and in the case of arid areas, such stored rainwater has helped many survive. The eco friendly trend is ‘rain water harvesting’. The process of water storage and water recharging is referred to as rain water harvesting and the need to apply this solution is very urgent. The growing population of the world and even the infringement of land for construction have taken a toll on the water resources of the world. Today, rain storage or water recharging is the need of the hour and the fact is that the costs involved in efficiently purifying water per head per day exceed the cost of retaining and reusing the resource.

Rain water storage and reuse can help us access a lot of clean water fit for human consumption. There are a number of rain water storage systems now being experimented on and used that include purification and storage. The water is harvested or salvaged off catchments and treated via filtering and other processes prior to being stored in sanitized tanks. It is of prime importance today to address the depleting resources and the shortage of water felt the world over, inspite of this resource being completely renewable. Many nations are even considering or have already applied bye-laws to make the storage of rain water compulsory in certain short listed areas for consumption.

There is an entire market segment that caters to this application and pioneers and develops rainwater storage systems. The rainwater is routed to a designed synthetic well or tank that has an in built filtration plant. This not only results in an increase in the water table, but also makes an area, a region or the community self sufficient. The basic idea is to collect rain water before it seeps into the ground and mixes with the sea water and use it wisely. A number of eco friendly residential areas are also addressing rain storage within the complexes, allowing the rainwater to percolate and raise the groundwater table. The stored water is accessible in a ‘when and as’ manner for immediate consumption.

Rainwater storage systems include designed barrels, tanks and wells to store the water. The building of such storage components has to be dimension specific. The companies that market such components follow the requirements of the whole procedure and develop designs in conjunction with the terrain and existent water table. The construction, storage and sealing have to be perfect for the water to be retained and treated for further use.
