There are two types or rainwater haversting. Rooftop rainwater harvesting and drain harvesting. In rooftop rainwater harvesting, we use the water collected on rooftops instead of letting it go down the drain.

But this water has to be treated before use as it may contain bird faeces, germs and other pollutants.
