Water Harvesting for Temples

How the Sabha Helps

• Sabha helps temples install systems that direct abhishek water into the ground instead of the sewer.
• Free site survey checks water volume, drainage and soil conditions.
• Connects committees to assessed contractors — no equipment sold, no commission.
• Assistance with the permissions the work requires.
• Water passes through a silt trap and filter before reaching the recharge pit.
• Recharges Delhi's falling groundwater table instead of adding to sewer load.
• Reduces waterlogging and damp around the mandir during heavy rain.
• Needs periodic desilting of the filter chamber, typically before and after monsoon.
• Can often be combined with rooftop rainwater harvesting.
• Working systems are listed as a Green Temple in the Sabha's directory.
• Open to any registered temple or trust in Delhi NCR with regular abhishek water.
• No cost to enquire — talk to the Sabha to get started.
