Each roof is a potential resource to let the rain fall on it and capture through a rainwater pipe for later usage. Rain is pure form of water but when it falls on the roof it carries impurities which are lying on the roof. Depending upon the type of geographical area, impurities like leaves, paper, plastic, dust, silt, debris etc. are normally present on roof. Most of our habitats don't use this water as they don't have right equipment to filter out impurities, and mostly rainwater goes down the drains or flows on road that creates water logging.

It is essential to remove these impurities in order to use this water for any application. If we can filter out impurities right from the pipe end, we can get clean water in our tank or well as a resource.

Rain is fresh source of water. When it falls on the roof, the impurities present on the roof flows along with water. Since the Rain doesn't have any time table, it may fall mid night, early morning or during odd hours of the day, it is cumbersome and tedious for one to clean the roof every time when there is a rainfall. And practically it is not possible to clean during night.

We can't avoid the impurities on roof but can always remove these impurities by using NeeRain rooftop rainwater filter. NeeRain rainwater filter is thoughtfully designed simple, scientific and sensible rooftop rainwater filter system to remove physical impurities online from rooftop rainwater.

Our country, India is suffering from worst ever water crisis in the history. Millions of lives and livelihood are under threat. Currently 600 Million people face high to extreme water stress and about two lakh people die every year due to inadequate access to safe water. The situation is only going to get worse.

Every year the water demand is rising from Agriculturre, Industrial and Domestic sectors. Cities in coastal zone are facing serious issue of sea water intrusion in deep aquifers, such salinity ingress make the water of confined aquifer non usable for any purpose. This aquifer is a large storage of water for billions of people in that geography. Contamination of water has dangerous effect on agriculture, animals and humanity. In addition cities closer to sea are in danger of sinking below sea level as water in aquifer is going down deeper.

The water demand is expected to double the available supply of water in few years from now. Under these circumstances more than half of the world's population will have to face extreme water crisis. Major cities in the world have already reached 'Zero water or Dry Stage'. We know that water can't be made in the factory but the realisation is far.

Availability of fresh water in rural and semi urban areas is a major problem as they do not have connection with government water grid. Surface water is polluted by human, agriculture and industrial waste. Ground water, in many parts of the world is found to have excess impurities like salt, Flouride, Nitrate, Iron, Chromium, Lead, Cadmium, Arsenic, Uranium etc. largely due to over extraction from borewells.

Extensive use of ground water for agriculture, industrial or any other purpose are increasing salinity (TDS levels) and hardness in raw water. Consumption of this quality of water results in many diseases including chronic kidney diseases. In Urban areas people treat this raw water through Reverse Osmosis and Softening plants resulting in huge wastage of water; This is not only exacerbating the water crisis but also adding huge electricity bills, carbon emissions that fuels effect of Climate Change. 

Water is the most essential element for all living beings. Five elements- Earth, Water, Light, Air and Vaccum give us energy to live a healthy and happy life. 

Same way the well being of humanity, environment and the functioning of the economy depend upon the sensible conservation of these five elements. Problems related to water in modern context are increasing worldwide.

Water level in dug wells and bore wells is going down day by day. Our cities are on the verge of Zero day due to acute scarcity of water.

Women and Children have to walk miles to fetch clean water for daily requirement of cooking and drinking. This is a great concern for civilised society and for developing world.

In many parts of the world, lower income groups and poor families have to spend considerable amount of money from their daily wages just to buy water. It is even difficult for the government to address the issues related to water given the pace of Industrialisation and Urbanisation.

Ground water sources are depleting rapidly; surface water sources have got contaminated and these are our main sources of survival.

Water is a teacher, a healer, a mirror, a wonder, a hope, a charm and a essence of life.
