Beauty of Recharge and Beauty of the Recharge well This is a 15 Feet well dug in November 2019 to divert the Rooftop rainwater after storing in the sump. In just an year, thanks to consistent recharge, the soil around the well is saturated and the well has 3 feet standing water . Recharge wells are a good solution to the Urban water crisis as well as flooding. Even in terms of Price, water from the shallow aquifer is the cheapest source of water. Also, since the water comes from shallow depths, the water quality will be much better than Bore-well water or piped water.
