− | [[Rainwater harvesting|Rainwater harvesting (RWH)]] is ideal for sites that cannot infiltrate water (e.g. contaminated soils, WHPAs, IPZs, etc.), zero-lot-line developments, large gardens and landscaped areas. Components include: catchment area (e.g. rooftop), filter to remove coarse debris, cistern storage, and a connecting pipe network. Additional components include pumps to lift water to higher elevations, additional water filtration and treatment. <br> | + | [[Rainwater harvesting|Rainwater harvesting (RWH)]] is ideal for sites that cannot infiltrate water (e.g. contaminated soils, WHPAs, IPZs, etc.), zero-lot-line developments, large gardens and landscaped areas.
