Weather predictions say that this year we will have a great monsoon season and the water quality of the rain will be quite good too due to the lack of pollution in the air. So, it is a great year to save up on those rainwaters with the help of rainwater harvesting and use it for several things. If you don’t know, rainwater can be used in several domestic purposes and not just for farming or gardening as the common belief goes. From filling up your home’s plastic water storage tanks to cleaning your car you can do a lot of things.
Drinking And Cooking
Surprised? But it’s the truth. You won’t get such high-quality water anywhere except rainwater. It doesn’t contain any type of chemical like chlorine which is mostly used to clean the tap water. But that doesn’t mean you can use the rainwater from anywhere. You will still need to filter it if you want to use it for cooking or drinking.
Bathing And Laundry
Obviously, rainwater can be used for bathing and laundry too and that too without filtering it. If you use rainwater for doing these things, you will be able to reduce your regular water usage by 40%.
Watering Lawns, Gardens And Houseplants
Rainwater is quite useful for lawns, gardens, etc. You can fill rainwater in the watering cans in order to water your garden and plants. You can also fill your plastic water storage tank separately and use that water for gardening. Of course, your garden will get water naturally during the monsoon season. But if you haven’t before, you can take up gardening to take advantage of this monsoon season and plant garden beds.
Rinsing Vegetables
Right now, washing everything has become a must. People are washing vegetables too many times right after bringing them from the garden. So much regular water from your plastic water storage tank is getting used up. So, instead of using regular water, fill a bucket with rainwater, and wash the vegetables with It thoroughly. Your regular water usage will decrease by a lot.
These are only some of the domestic purposes where you can use your collected rainwater. But mostly, if you are capable of filtering the rainwater just like your tap water, you can use the rainwater for pretty much anything. So, this monsoon season, try out rainwater harvesting by filling up your plastic water storage tank with rainwater and in turn reducing your water bill.
