  2. 2Roof collection: 90% efficiency, pavement: 70%, storage needed for dry periods
  3. 31000 m² roof, 1 m rain: 700-900 m³ water available

Worked Examples

Unos
Residential roof 100 m², annual rainfall 500 mm
Rezultat
Annual collection ~45 m³ (45,000 L), covers 30-40% irrigation needs
Location dependent

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Under-sizing tank for dry season needs
  • Forgetting overflow management (can cause flooding)
