In-Depth Information
A vertical storage element is the largest of the capture-reuse containers, and
therefore its use is a function of drainage area and water needs. Vertical structures
are best used for intensive irrigation needs or even fire suppression requirements.
Designing a capture-reuse system in which the cistern is under a hardscaped
structure is best used in institutional or commercial settings. This type of subsur-
face storage is larger and more elaborate and typically requires pumps to connect
to the irrigation system.
