Storage containers or cisterns for the harvested rainwater make stored rainwater available when needed.
Storage tanks reduce stormwater runoff into local waterways, save money by
reducing dependence on municipal water sources, and make water available in
times of drought. Depending on the space available these tanks can be
constructed above grade, partly underground, or below grade. The polyethylene
tanks are the most common, and easiest to clean and connect to the piping
system. Fiberglass and steel tanks are also commonly used. To prevent agitation
of sediment, to transport rainwater for reuse, and to maintain rainwater levels
within a storage container or cistern, pumps, filters, and/or overflow devices
may be needed. Storage tanks can be connected in a series for increased storage
needs.
