Using tap water for your plants is not only costly, it is also harmful to the plants. When people build their home, they usually install some sort of water softener. The salt and chemicals in the water softeners can be detrimental to your houseplants. This is especially true for city dwellers that are connected to the city water system, which has a certain amount of chlorine added to kill bacteria. The chlorine can wreak havoc on houseplants. This is where a rainwater collection system really comes in handy, as you can collect the water, and then distribute via a hose connected to the bottom of the rain barrel.

You can hook a standard size garden hose to the spigot and water practically all of the plants around your home.

For years my wife and I would use our tap water for the houseplants and some of the other decorative flowers and planters that she would use to enhance our landscaping. She would always get after me to figure out some way to use the water that comes off the roof when it starts to rain. She would run around putting buckets everywhere to catch the rain water as it ran off of the roof, and she would end up with 8 or 10 buckets at strategic locations like in the valleys where the garage roof would meet the rest of the house. There would be a lot of rain coming down right there, and if you didn’t catch it; it would form a huge puddle that would splash water and mud all over the side of the house.
When we first built the house we did not have gutters installed for the first year or so. As we would come up with the money we added them when and where they would do the most good, like over the entryways and porches. But we still had to put buckets at the downspouts to capture rainwater. Then we would be carrying buckets of water all over the place, spilling and slopping and generally making a mess.
