Rain Harvest 5.0

This rain harvesting calculator offers a practical tool for estimating the volume of water that can be collected from a roof or other catchment surface during a rainfall event. It provides valuable insights into the potential yield, highlighting the significant amount of water that can be captured even during brief storms. This information can support sustainable water management practices, such as irrigating an organic garden or conserving water resources.

The calculator features an intuitive interface that allows users to input key parameters, including:

• Catchment surface area in square feet or square meters
• Rainfall amount in inches or millimeters
• Surface efficiency as a percentage
• Number of collection points

The output displays the estimated total volume of runoff collected, presented in gallons or liters. When multiple collection points are specified, the calculator also provides a breakdown of water collected per point.

This tool serves as a practical aid for understanding and optimizing rainwater harvesting efforts.
