HOW MUCH CAN YOU HARVEST

L=total length of your house W=total width of your house (L+eaves)x(W+eaves)=Catchment Example:(36+4)x(46+4)=2000sqft.
1 inch of rainfall can provide an average of 600 gallons per 1000 sq ft. catchmen tarea. (Catchment area/1000)x600gallons=total gallons of water collected per1 inch of rainfall Example:(2000/1000)x600gallons=1200gallons
To find out how much you will collect in a year: Total gallons of rain water per sq.inch x average rainfall per year in inches=total gallons per year Example: 1200 gallons of water per sq. inch x 20 inches of rainfall a year=24000gallons The Kyoto Environmental Rain Barrel is an excellent way to conserve water.
