Abstract

This project offers a method of harvesting and filtering rainwater for domestic use. The project purpose is to help meet the increasing demands of water due to the increase of human populations. This can also help household areas or farms that experience high level of rainwater to reduce the run-off that chokes the drain as well as reduce soil erosion. The project also helps reduce the billed water usage for daily use such as by using rainwater to water the plants and to feed the livestock at the farm for farmers. By doing so, the water collected can supplement the domestic water needs and alternatively reduce the water usage. The design is made using CAD software (Fusion 360), and the design is refined based on the previous researchers compiled from the internet and also from the survey handed out to determine the needs of the consumers. The water is collected from the roof, filtered using a specific filtration system and then stored in a tank for later use. The process takes place during raining time and easy to be used or installed.
