Rainwater harvesting is not common practice, but many people are becoming interested in learning more about it. This education session will cover both commercial and residential scale projects, focusing on irrigation techniques and what works and what doesn’t for rainwater storage, pumps, and hookups (without getting overly technical) with an overview of code requirements. We’ll also have a quick look at residential stormwater retention requirements that can be solved with rain barrels.
