How Much Water Could I Harvest?

●   1mm of rainfall on 1 m² roof area = 1 Litre of harvested water
●   If your location has an average rainfall of 1000mm per year.
●   If your factory has a roof area of 1 000m², then the water captured over a year could be 1 000 000 Liters or 1 000 kiloliters*

*Calculation (1 000mm X 1 000m² = 1 000 000 liters)
