Amazing video
I need this one in my Farm. Thanks for sharing
good
This is like I tell everyone why throw out a seed when you can plant it to cultivate your own food.
Yes, avoid taking ground water whenever possible. Collapsing an aquifer is a very bad idea.
Useful video, would have been so much more informative if using metric units so that quantities and consumption values could be understood . . .
I too like the filtering sock but I'd put the sock on exit that way it's easier to clean and a lot of the bigger particals will drop off in the settling tank
Great video. No music, sticks to facts, no going off in a hundred directions. Well produced.
Can someone explain to my why he doesn't bury the tanks underground?

Excellent system....I love the idea that your filter leave lock from the roof top, then that screen sock before it goes in your storage tank, then the two filter and ultra violet purifier before the water goes in the house...that 's fantastic..👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍
Loved the idea and would love to implement thr system. But it would cost more than $25k+ to install all that system. Isn't it better to subscribe to the city water and pay $40 a month... just to break even, one would have to wait more than 625 months. Or 52 years....
Very nice video good way to store water and conservation of water 💦
Please keep in mind you're also pulling in carbon from the atmosphere via smog.
that water in the glass doesnt look clean to me
Omg, I love the idea of the filtering sock you use at the first flush tank. Very cool👍 Thanks for the video!
Where can I find the 300 micron sock you spoke of.
WOW what an awesome system. Wish I had the time, money and yard for something like this. I am looking to do something that will hold a few hundred gallons and collect water from my gutters. I need to figure out how to cut the debris down that will get washed into my holding tank. I'd like to use this for emergency drinking water. I should be able to the put water into my Hydro Blu tank, run it through my bacteria and virus filter to clean it and my charcoal filter for taste improvement.
The Honourable Creed, many verified thanks for up-loading and holding an initial informative video subjecting and encouraging the sall and the big world for harvesting the rainy water in- and out-of-the seasons. We further hope the mankind would see the days for receiving and holding the raini water for our natural wonders and for all the public and it's generations. Reverences and regards! Dr. Muneer Ahmed (Kinsfolk Maher & Chaudhery)
EXCELLENT information. Thank you.
Excellent system. My engineering sense suggests that the UV system does very little, especially relative to the electricity it requires. But the rest of the system is absolutely first rate.
Remember folks, all because you own it doesn't mean you OWN it. Uncle Sam can come take it anytime he wants.
Well your in a warm climate. I Never see anyone in the north having a great system. It can be done. I just haven't posted it yet.
belle vidange toi meme
This guy only drinks evian, spat that gross stuff all over the camera when it cut.
My family is on rainwater, as a family of 4 we use around 1000L a week most weeks in dry times. Quick showers and very water efficient washing machine and toilet, no dishwasher. Our issue is we skirt the minimum input for our waste water treatment plant.
@Keyzer Soze We built a 4 bedroom home and as per the QLD regs we need a septic or waste water treatment plant that can cater to 2 person per room. So our treatment/ recycling plant is designed to be efficient with the water use of 8 people. My partner, 2 young children and myself struggle to use enough water to meet the minimum input requirement of the system (on paper anyway). Our toilet uses 3l per flush, shower head is 5l a min (the pressure through the throttled rubber tips makes it suprisingly effective, damn near a massage) we hand wash dishes and utensils after every meal and use/ waste minimum water. We only have rain water storage (75kl) in a relatively dry rural area. We have a large dam used for yard irrigation , gardens and vegies.
@Keyzer Soze The system requires a certain L per day input so that it can cycle through its aerobic and anaerobic chambers to effectively break down waste water into a reusable grey water. The reason we struggle ∆
I want to do this for my girlfriend in The Philippines. They get tons of rain but have no running water. I am so glad I have a gravity spring system. This guy is very good.
@Keyzer Soze Pretty much.
Thanks for putting this video up!! Very helpful and informative. Respect from NZ.
Thank you so much and I subscribed! 😊
Appreciate you sharing a little of your wisdom sir ..
I heard that pure water will corrode copper pipes. Someone I know with a rainwater harvest system adds some limestone to his first tank to give the water some mineral content.
It's not pure water that's being pumped, there's still impurities from the atmosphere and such. Also, with a system like this you don't need to use copper pipes. You can add limestone but it won't do anything in this instance since he's using mostly plastic tubing. BTW, nice picture of the Ice Man Kuklinski!
What kind of paint did you use on your tanks and barrels?
Do not drink or bathe with rainwater. Today's rainwater contains aluminum nanoparticles, polymer fibers, strontium, barium and other toxic components.
Impressive!
Good stuff
Rain water converting to drinking water. That is amazing.
Rainwater harvesting storage tanks, underground water tanks, septic tanks, in kerala... 👍👍👍 ua-cam.com/video/wfGvM79jsXc/v-deo.html
Thank you very much for this educative video. It is a very conservative way to save rain water and put it to better use
wtf is a gallon
1 gallon equals 3.785 liters.
This is what we must do!
He looks very healthy as well. But what about people to live in areas where it goes down in the freezing temps? Will them containers crack as the water freezes during the winter months?
Probably would. I'd imagine those of us in cold climates would have these tanks in our basements. So, the whole system just goes straight from the roof into our house down into the basement.
Holy moly
It is most considerate of you to provide this channel with the content on it. I am grateful for the data as it provides knowledge that is beneficial and for that reason highly desirable. Thanks.
Thank you for this video it is very informative and useful.
what part of the country is he in? cally or Az? thanks for the Video
Texas, Hill Country - Kendall county.
Very good system Nice demo Thanks Grandpa
Thank you
Isn't rainwater too pure and lacks minerals for long term drinking?
I just love old guys who know what the hell they're talking about.
I noticed in the video that he says "25 years from 1990"...was this video made in 1990? The published date is simply when someone put it up. Is he still alive does anyone know? This is one of the best water collection videos I've seen. I love his little "pump house" and I someday would love to combine a power station (with all the solar equipment and other things along those lines) with a pump house like his. Well done!
oh, don't put the power station inside with the water station seems reasonable at first until....no
