Rainwater Collection - Free Storage Calculator

Old Cistern


Deciding whether or not rainwater collection will work for you requires some calculations to determine its viability. When starting a rainwater collection system, the first thing you will need to know is how much rain you can harvest and what size storage capacity you will need to hold that rainwater.
There is a free rainwater storage calculator available at:
This will assist you in determining your storage needs. The only additional information you will need is the average annual rainfall for your area.

You can find the average monthly rainfall rates for most major cities in the U.S. here:
