rain water harvesting is the accumulating and storing of rain water. rain water harvesting has been used to provide drinking water and water for live stock, water for irrigation or to refill aquifers in a process called ground water recharge rain water collected from the roofs the house, tents and local institutions , or from specially prepared areas of ground, can make an important contribution to drinking water. In some cases, rainwater may be the only available, or economical, water source. Rainwater systems are simple to construct from inexpensive local materials, and are potentially successful in most habitable locations. Roof rainwater can be of good quality and may not require treatment before consumption However some rooftop materials may produce rainwater that is harmful to human health. Household rainfall catchment systems are appropriate in areas with an average rainfall greater than 200mm per year, and no other accessible water sources (Skinner and Cotton, 1992).
