Rain water storage

You need taps on all of them so you drain one first (the dirty one so you can clean it out) and then go to the next. And so that a leak doesn't drain them all... Siphons failing if the water level gets to low can be mostly solved by having the bottom ends of the inverted U just a couple of inches above the bottom of each tank. MBC's are good, large and relatively cheap but are translucent. Algae will grow in them unless you cover 'em with something opaque. I'm about to press a similar sized old galvanised water tank into water butt service. Something that has been waiting for a tuit for 12 years... need to inspect it first to see what it's like inside the outside is very good. -- Cheers Dave. |
