Rainwater Firm-Yield Calculator

How much water can your roof reliably supply?

RAINFAL runs a daily water-balance across decades of local rainfall to show whether a system would have met demand every day — even through the worst drought on record.

Roof or other surface that catches rain, in square feet.
How much water your tank can hold, in gallons.
Water used per day. A water-efficient home uses about 25 gallons per person.
Share of rain that reaches the tank.
Adjusts the local rainfall up or down. 1.00 = records as-is; 1.10 = 10% wetter, 0.90 = 10% drier.
How full the tank is when the simulation begins, as a percent.
