streets, wondering why a city can&#8217;t handle a bit of rain without turning into deep puddles everywhere?<\/p>\n<p>This common woe arises when surface drainage and percolation systems are not in place. In Bengaluru, where the average rainfall is 900 mm, it becomes crucial to manage rainwater effectively to prevent flooding and rejuvenate the groundwater table. Managing run-off water and percolation pits are not complex systems; however, they need to be well-planned and integrated effectively to manage the significant annual rainfall that the city experiences.<\/p>\n<p>At GoodEarth, we have constantly innovated and experimented with various scientific methodologies, exploring diverse water harvesting and recycling techniques to stay off the grid.<\/p>\n<p>Today, let&#8217;s dive into the basics and understand how percolation pits and simple design integration can be useful in managing stormwater by taking the examples of the designs incorporated in our projects.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-3{width:100% !important;margin-top : 0px;margin-bottom : 0px;}.fusion-builder-column-3 > .fusion-column-wrapper {padding-top : 0px !important;padding-right : 0px !important;margin-right : 1.92%;padding-bottom : 0px !important;padding-left : 0px !important;margin-left : 1.92%;}@media only screen and (max-width:1024px) {.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-3{width:100% !important;order : 0;}.fusion-builder-column-3 > .fusion-column-wrapper {margin-right : 1.92%;margin-left : 1.92%;}}@media only screen and (max-width:640px) {.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-3{width:100% !important;order : 0;}.fusion-builder-column-3 > .fusion-column-wrapper {margin-right : 1.92%;margin-left : 1.92%;}}<\/style><\/div><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-body .fusion-flex-container.fusion-builder-row-2{ padding-top : 0px;margin-top : 20px;padding-right : 0px;padding-bottom : 0px;margin-bottom : 0px;padding-left : 0px;}<\/style><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-3 fusion-flex-container nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);background-position: center center;background-repeat: no-repeat;border-width: 0px 0px 0px 0px;border-color:#e2e2e2;border-style:solid;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-center fusion-flex-justify-content-center\" style=\"max-width:1248px;margin-left: calc(-4% \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-4% \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-4 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-flex-column\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;background-color:#ffffff;box-shadow:0px 0px 0px 0px ;;padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-4 fusion-text-no-margin\" style=\"margin-top:5px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;\"><h2>What are percolation pits?<\/h2>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-5 fusion-text-no-margin\" style=\"margin-top:5px;margin-right:00px;margin-bottom:10px;margin-left:00px;\"><p>Percolation pits, also known as soak pits or recharge pits, are shallow excavations filled with permeable materials designed to enhance the percolation of rainwater into the ground. Think of them as nature&#8217;s sponges, absorbing surface run-off water and facilitating natural filtration, thereby recharging the groundwater.<\/p>\n<p>Strategically placed along the periphery in the site, these pits are circular excavations formed by cement rings, equipped with holes, and covered with concrete slabs. The bottom is lined with gravel to ensure effective percolation. These pits act as a direct conduit for rainwater to seep into the ground, rejuvenating the groundwater table.<\/p>\n<\/div><div ><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-1 hover-type-none\" style=\"border-radius:5px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1898\" height=\"1709\" src=\"https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Percolation-Pit.jpg\" alt class=\"img-responsive wp-image-18600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Percolation-Pit-200x180.jpg 200w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Percolation-Pit-400x360.jpg 400w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Percolation-Pit-600x540.jpg 600w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Percolation-Pit-800x720.jpg 800w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Percolation-Pit-1200x1081.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Percolation-Pit.jpg 1898w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/span><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-6 fusion-text-no-margin\" style=\"margin-top:5px;margin-right:00px;margin-bottom:10px;margin-left:00px;\"><p>Alternatively, GoodEarth integrates a comprehensive rainwater harvesting system where rainwater from all the roofs is collected through a network of gutters and pipes. Gravity guides this collected rainwater into a dedicated tank. To reduce reliance on municipal water and bore wells, the harvested water undergoes filtration and is then pumped to homes.<\/p>\n<p>In some instances, rainwater from rooftops is directed through gargoyles, elegantly dripping down along a chain into a designated pot. This pot serves as a natural filter, facilitating additional percolation into the ground.<\/p>\n<\/div><div ><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-2 hover-type-none\"><img

Without imposing artificial structures, GoodEarth harmonises with the natural terrain, employing swales along the sides of the pathways to guide water flow seamlessly. These open channels, lined with pebbles, serve a dual purpose by shaping the water&#8217;s course and enriching the natural filtration process.<\/p>\n<\/div><div ><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-5 hover-type-none\" style=\"border-radius:5px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2454\" height=\"815\" src=\"https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Swale1.jpg\" alt class=\"img-responsive wp-image-18607\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Swale1-200x66.jpg 200w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Swale1-400x133.jpg 400w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Swale1-600x199.jpg 600w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Swale1-800x266.jpg 800w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Swale1-1200x399.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Swale1.jpg 2454w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/span><\/div><div ><style>.fusion-imageframe.imageframe-6{ margin-top : 20px;}<\/style><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-6 hover-type-none\" style=\"border-radius:5px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2335\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Swale2.jpg\" alt class=\"img-responsive wp-image-18608\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Swale2-200x93.jpg 200w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Swale2-400x185.jpg 400w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Swale2-600x278.jpg 600w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Swale2-800x370.jpg 800w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Swale2-1200x555.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Swale2.jpg 2335w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/span><\/div><div ><style>.fusion-imageframe.imageframe-7{ margin-top : 20px;}<\/style><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-7 hover-type-none\" style=\"border-radius:5px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2170\" height=\"634\" src=\"https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/rain-water-Copy.jpg\" alt class=\"img-responsive wp-image-18609\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/rain-water-Copy-200x58.jpg 200w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/rain-water-Copy-400x117.jpg 400w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/rain-water-Copy-600x175.jpg 600w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/rain-water-Copy-800x234.jpg 800w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/rain-water-Copy-1200x351.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/rain-water-Copy.jpg 2170w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/span><\/div><div ><style>.fusion-imageframe.imageframe-8{ margin-top : 20px;}<\/style><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-8 hover-type-none\" style=\"border-radius:5px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1141\" height=\"854\" src=\"https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/swale1-1.jpg\" alt class=\"img-responsive wp-image-18616\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/swale1-1-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/swale1-1-400x299.jpg 400w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/swale1-1-600x449.jpg 600w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/swale1-1-800x599.jpg 800w, https:\/\/goodearth.org.in\/connect\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/swale1-1.jpg 1141w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 1141px\" \/><\/span><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-9 fusion-text-no-margin\" style=\"margin-top:15px;margin-right:00px;margin-bottom:10px;margin-left:00px;\"><p>Another noteworthy detail in our water management strategy is the integration of cobble drains.
