Imagine trying to harvest rainwater on such hm ? Small area in dry area. Does it even have sense ? Will this tank fill over a year ?

@homesteadonomics

Жыл бұрын

@@CastewaPL it’s a small structure for sure….but I’ve already got collection on all of my other structures so this was a good opportunity to do a set up video. As for the filling up. Yes it will. The roof space is approx 90sqft, which means that for every inch of rain I will collect approx 54 gallons. And our monsoon season can often get anywhere from a 5-6 inches to as much as nearly 20” like some places around here did last monsoon. So at a 300 gallon tank size, it would take approx 6” to fill it.

Love your voice, tone, pace and demeanor. I could listen to you speak all day. Clear, professional and on target. You don't ramble. Appreciate that. Thanks for sharing, I learned a lot. I am wondering why you wouldn't push some flexible tubing over the first flush outlet and plumb it into the overflow pipe so you don't create erosion under the platform and further use all that water.

Many yrs ago I lived off grid in the mountains on a ranch in another Dry state - before Off Grid became a Fad & now what everyone seems to be hoping to do as a life saver in a desperate world. My how Xs change. Wait til the realize / ITs not EASY... We could have used rain catchment back then. Also wanted to add that your great videos offer another slant from the comment section - its a pretty good source of Amusement to some of us @ advanced age. Like / Here's Your Sign! Also viewing some comments from some states that let us know - not all Americans (some states) are as free as others. Codes / etc. Like its against their Codes to collect Rain water!

A nice trick for starting the hole in the tank with the hole saw is to run it reverse to get the cut started. Bad things can happen running a large hole saw forward when starting the hole, and hard to get it started exactly where you want it. I've installed hundreds of tanks and it really helps. Nice work. Maybe a little overkill on the pipe diameter ;)

@homesteadonomics

Жыл бұрын

Haha….yes, very much overkill on the pipe size. But this was the only structure I had to do it on as my house, shop, and pretty much every other structure already has tanks and collection setup. So this was more of a demonstration opportunity to show the kit and also add a system to the container playhouse….even if it is capable of a lot larger volumes from a larger structure😉

@@homesteadonomics Major props to you for doing all that water harvesting. If we can get a million or two people on board maybe we could help return the Colorado river to its former glory.

The corrugated iron roof and tank setup is exactly how rain water is harvested in Australia. 🙂🦘🇦🇺

Perfect timing. I've finally decided to get of my butt and get busy on a rainwater harvesting system. I know you're a fireman, do you have a high pressure pump that you can hook up to your system to protect your property in case of a brush fire? I had asked on a local FB group if anyone in my area had experience with such pumps and everyone basically said "Don't be stupid, call 911 and run away.", which I though was the most asinine advice I'd ever heard. If lightning hits the brush near my house and starts a brush fire, I'm not about to flee and hope it doesn't reach my house before the fire department gets here if I have a chance of stopping it before it gets out of control. Better to put out a burning bush or two than wait 5, 10, 15 minutes for the fire dept. when that one burning bush has become a quarter acre wildfire.

In a world where so many people seem to darn dumb....this guy gives me hope for mankind...He's SO VERY SMART AND CLEVER and skilled! Amazing!

Again, not perfect but still better than municipal and if you look at the road maps in AZ, we’ve got some of the largest swaths of open land between towns/cities. A matter of ‘bang for your buck’ Lay a strip over 50 closely settled municipal centers or over open land with 20 people per square mile

Great idea. I have, in addition to the house that has gutters, a separate building that used to be a "horseless carriage" garage, from the early 1900's, that doesn't have them. I've been thinking of adding them there to gather even more water.

Just a little tip, with your friction fit parts Joe, pop a screw in them so they stay solid you can simply unscrew to remove. It worked wonders for us to pass inspection with our temporary tank before our big tank arrived, the temporary tank obviously needed longer downpipes to the catch basket so they were frustrating hubby falling out just friction fit, so I suggested popping a screw in 🤷🏼‍♀️voilà problem solved, hubby obviously took the idea and passed it on as his own. His motto “ let’s work as a team and do it my way” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 another great video love the little 🐐 photo bombers in the background

Love it - you should talk with the container guy so they could incorperate this with a 20' solar container system...

I really appreciate the amount of editing that went into this video, great work Joe!

Thank you! Thank you! I appreciate the demonstration. Hubs & I bought a 1550 gallon water tank to be installed for home use, after our small home is built (on raw land, trying to clear). I was checking out Australia YT videos on how to install a water tank. Some YT-ers (US) spend 35+ minutes demonstrating how to install but don't really show all the components or really demonstrate the procedure of water harvesting. Ugh!!! So frustrating! So, thank you again. We live where we get rain throughout the year (summers can be drier though & 2 months of possible snow in winter) & plan on getting another 1500 gallon water tank to collect enough water, plus any other buildings to collect water from for future animals we hopefully will be getting so they can have water... (chicken coops, goat pens, etc.) Great video!!!!!! 👍👍👍

Excellent Information my friend.

Thank you! This is a straight forward and detailed video which will help greatly for when we start all our off grid hidden valley farms and retreat cabins on the property.

This system really looks good. Years ago I set up a first flush system on 2 downspouts. 1 to an IBC the other to a 3 55 gal barrel set up daisy chain style. I think the gods saw this and cancelled all scheduled rain for 2 years. Maybe I need to go out and wash a car or two.

What a professional and detailed install. Very impressive. Thanks for sharing
