Thanks for watching! Lilly
wenn du die Tonnen ansägst, sorgt dass dann nicht für eine Menge Mikroplastik? Und deine Tonnen sind dann nicht mehr Lebensmittelecht oder?
@@karlgrylls2406 hab die tonnen ausgesaugt und ausgewischt, bzw ausgewaschen wo es gegangen ist und die sichtbaren plastikpartikel entfernt. geht leider nicht anders
@@SurvivalLilly hm ja ich denke je weiter die Zeit voranschreitet ohne dass eine Apokalypse passiert, desto mehr mikroplastik wird ausgewaschen. Sprich in einigen Wochen sollte keines mehr da sein. Verlassen würde ich mich aber ungern drauf. Ich denke ich würde die irgendwann mal (wenn sie leer sind) mit ein wenig Wasser spülen und in ein Labor zur Analyse schicken, einfach um sicher zu gehen
It’s a shame that you have to use code words in the title….🤨
That’s a tight set up! I love your videos Lily! keep up the great job!
Very nice setup Lily! 👍
Lily I have to say you did one hell of a job with your water recovery system. You always simply happen to amaze me with your level of skills and your ideas that you always have. Good job and keep it coming. I always enjoy watching everything you do. Take care of yourself from John.
You may have to "prime the pump" by adding some water into the pump before you turn it on
Herrliche ansehn

A suggestion, put the overflow port the farthest barrel away from the intake port. The goal is to have excess rain water to flow into the first barrel, and exit from the farthest one, to gradually replace all the water with fresh rain, if there is enough excess.
I should think that at the rate which she will be drawing the water from the far barrel that would provide all of the circulation needed.
Rain water can expired?
@@kusukacolaylowlee1611 oh sure, bacteria and such will start growing fairly rapidly without some treatment. The barrel material does block the Sun which slows the process down but it's still an issue even if used and refreshed regularly. It's not such a big deal if only used for the garden but still something to be condidered.
@@richardelliott9511 bacteria eat what? Need sugar or protein!
I'm coming to your house when SHTF. This is an amazing job you did here it looks very pro, Would you be able to stack these barrels vertically to take up less space?
I think for sure that would work. I think you would need some kind of shelving to bare the weight. Water gets pretty heavy. Just stacking them on top of each other would maybe be too weighty. If you did that you would want to connect the bottom of one barrel to the top of the one below it with a hose and the sillcock on the bottom barrel. Ya for sure that would work well. :)
Initially I wanted to stack them vertically, but then I found out that the lid is not waterproof.
@@SurvivalLilly Oh I see what you are saying. You thought about stacking them vertically on their sides but the water would leak out the top. I was thinking stacking them vertically end to end.
I think the weight of stacked barrels would be an issue if you're not on very well-tamped, very level ground.
@@innercityprepper Probably some kind of shelving would be required to help distribute the weight.
Ive learned over the last few years of gardening, plants really seem to appreciate rain water over well water 100% nice job Lily ! Your garden is going to be booming !
The reason the plants like rain water is:
Often during a rain, there is lightning. If there is lightning, it creates nitrogen, which plants need to grow leaves. And, of course, the leaves are what make the plants’ food.
This is so funny I was just telling someone about making one of these for their location. sharing video now and watching thanks.
Hi Lily I just wanted to let you know that I have broken both of my wrists so that’s made me a stationary wheelchair user I’m not been operated on yet so I just spend my time watching you on UA-cam and leaning more about the outside world I cannot get to 🧐🏴😘
I’m just over here admiring the fittings and hardware they have over seas.
Exactly my thinking.
That is very smart as there will be many droughts
Great video 👍 . A suggestion. When using drills or grinders or such tie up your hair , it'll be a bad day if it gets wrapped around the grinder . Also for anyone who wears hoodies take off the strings from the hood . If you get one of those wrapped around a grinder it will pull the grinder into you face or neck faster than you imagine
These pump designed to be used in old type of wells the intake had to be lower than the pump, then you had to fill up the punp and hose with water otherwise it will not work and damage the pump because of overheating. you sould put a filter on the gutter intake for large debries like leaves and such, great vid by the way
I have been watching your videos for years. My husband and I have learned a lot. You are doing a great job 🥰👍
Great job Lilly on your rainwater catchment system,great way to think ahead, everyone know water is life. Great job on installing it.
Thank you @survival Lilly for directing me here!
Q&A: Yes I could have saved more space inbetween the barrels by connection the houses differently. That is what I would do different about the system, but now the holes are already drilled. If anybody has improvements to my system please let me know in the comment section below.
Du benötigst keinen Überlauf. Wenn die Tonnen voll sind, läuft das überschüssige Wasser im Sammler einfach vorbei. Des Weiteren ist es sinnvoller die Behälter oberhalb zu verbinden. Dadurch wirkt das erste Fass als "Beruhigungsbereich" für das Wasser. Bei einer Kontamination des Wassers sind somit nicht gleich alle drei Fässer betroffen. In der Dachrinne sollte ein Schutzgitter installiert werden, so dass keine Fremdkörper das Wasser verunreinigen können.
Please don't let the downspout pour water near your home's foundation. This could result in structural damage. Spouts should empty several feet from the foundation.
Small side point, it is called spigot (in US) or tap (in UK), not bigot (which is bigotted person).
As for your system, I would have used something like Strata pro ward 250L slimline water butt. It is nearly square shaped (54x54 cm), so you can fit them in pretty much same space as your 120L barrels (if to eliminate gaps), comes already with a tap (or spigot if you prefer).
Replace taps to quick connect/release ones, so you can connect pump to any of the barels. Owerflow hoses should be connected at the top, as not to loose water if some pet decide to chew through, also that barels could be disconected for cleaning without need to drain all of them.
You would have more than double amount of water (750L vs 360L), no risk of leaks and easy maintenance/cleaning.
As for barels being placed on concrete, it is an issue only if they would be moved frequently, as concrete is quite abrasive and would damage bottom of a barrel.
Hope that helps.
I am very glad that you are happy with your system. I am however a bit perplexed as to why you elected to connect the barrels together at the bottom instead of the top. As is, the system will evenly distribute all rain water equally between all three barrels. If you set it up so each barrel over flows into the next they would fill in order first one then the next. If you then put a sillcock ( hose bib ) near the bottom of each barrel you could draw from each barrel one at a time as needed. The last in the sequence can be made to overflow into a drip hose and water the garden automatically with the water in excess of what you can store, albeit only when its raining but its better then just dumping it on the ground. It would turn a nominal rain fall into a good soaking for the garden.
@@Kibernautas Proper term is Sillcock or hose bib
I would suggest installing filters or alike to keep leaves ans insects out of the Barrels and pump. There is Fiberglasmesh at most Hardwarestores that will do the Trick
We have made a system like yours and live in Wa state. We have open tops in barrels like yours and have covered the tops with a mesh to keep the bugs out. Without the mesh, even small holes will allow mosquitoes to get in there and their larva will populate in your water. 😬(personal experience talkin here. 😅) . Btw, you’re doing an amazing job, my daughters and I love your content and your videos are inspiring! 😊👍. Keep up the great work Lady!
@@seaweld2000 Does the mesh work for keeping mosquitoes out?
You are sick to :)
You just needed to prime the pump. After watching the entire video looks like you figured it out. Nice setup!
Love the quick connect on the
Hoses.... those are cool..
Great job. If you would install a water drip system you probably have enough to cover your needs. Also place a rain computer for planning your water drip system in the morning and evening. This would save you anywhere between 40-60% of water usage.
Got my knife in Saturday's mail. In the words of Crocodile Dundee, "That's a knife!" Very pleased 😍
Lily you are amazing, you did this all by yourself and make it look easy. I agree with what you said about how much a vegetable garden needs and how it is more than you would expect. The water here ( N. Ireland ) is free for now ( included in the housing rates ) but it is still municipal supply which contains small amounts of chlorine and even more amounts of fluoride, so not ideal for plants and growing living things. The rain water solution is more better I think and you're correct about getting more barrels. Better to have too much than not enough. Also, I was looking into growing inside a geodome
( temperate climate here ) using hydroponics and aquaponics as well as soil. The soil soaks up quite a lot, but I'm told the other methods aqua and hydro use water very sparingly as it's recycled through the system and it's some time before it is evaporated and uptake by the plants. Sorry to write a book sister. Good luck. Be safe.
Congratulations - this rainwater catchment system looks really nice. Thanks for following my advice. ;-)
Just another minor hint: close your holes at the top of the barrels with some kind of fine mesh. Otherwise, you'll breed mosquitos right next to your house.
Awesome system for garden. With holes on top you may need to occasionally throw in something to keep the bugs down.
What should work with your for your big square rain box is to cut a hole in the top and add a lid. That way you can easily clean it. You already have a hole saw set or you can use a saw if you need to make the hole bigger. Good job.🇨🇦
This is perfect timing Lilly. I’ve been researching rain catchment systems too. Mine will be for watering plants and emergency drinking water if needed. Thank you for the awesome video. ❤️🇺🇸
Hey Lilly,
thanks for showing a cheap way to collect some rain water. In my area this is usually build a bit bigger (3000 to 10000 l) and underground. This adds the problem to burry the containers (usually HDPE or concrete). But afterwards you are able to store water also over the winter (freezing temp) and do not waste space (only a man hole needed for cleaning now and then). Also most moisture is collected in spring. Which then can be used in the summer.
Anyway I enjoyed your video. Thanks for making people aware that they can be part of the solution.
Best regards
A few years ago I lived in Germany, our landlord said they were not allowed to collect rainwater because it is taxed. Good to see thats not everywhere. Great video. Mahalo for sharing
Yup, next they'll tax the air that we breath.
I really learned more from Lilly than from my own father!Very nice work!
As a fan of the Boston Red Sox (and baseball in general) let me be the first to say I think it's quite heart warming to see someone so far away from the US wearing a NY Yankees cap. Even if they are a rival.
⚾⚾⚾
Great video - great job, well done. Add a filter so you can also use this water for drinking/ cooking when the authorities turn off the mains water for whatever reason they have already planned and the taps run dry.
Solid. I’m looking at something similar, but with a temporary catchment below and a solar pump to bring it into a painted cistern held 10-12’ above by 4 8-10” posts. Gravity is water’s best friend. Transporting water when shtf is not fun.
I have been able to pick up food safe barrels that vinegar was shipped in for $50 each. I use these for indoor storage adding a couple very few months. 2000 litres in IBC totes and barrel storage so far. I also have empty non food safe barrels to store gray water so no water goes to waist and can be for non potable use like flushing the toilet while it still works. Dehydrated food, rice and drinking require a lot of water. The rain catchment system can be used for garden and showers.
you are very positive and i love you
Very nice lilly. More barrels or bigger ones is always better . Maybe a 12v Incase you don't have electricity . Your roof can catch a lot of water . Probably enough to water your garden completely. Great job
Why did you connect them at the base? One leak and all three would drain. My instinct would have been to connect at the top and let them fill up sequentially.
My thoughts as well, with a check valve between the barrels you would also be able to isolate each barrel for maintenance and cleaning without losing all the water from all three barrels.
because then you would have to install a bigot at every barrel. then you have more work connecting the hose to each of the barrel once one barrel runs out of water. now I can water 360 liters at once, without having to change the setup.
@@SurvivalLilly I understand what your saying, but in a drought situation collection and retention is more important than convenience is what I was thinking.
I have been collecting rainwater in four 55gallon blue barrels for 25 years for use on the allotment. I sank them 3/4 into the ground, to protect from frost. They are connected together by siphon pipes through the lids, no need to drill holes in the barrels ( Much as I like watching you using power tools. I fell in love with you on the video where you went food shopping and came home with a chop saw, what a girl Lol )
To get the water out I use a submersible pump and a micro irrigation system, which drips water directly to the ground around the roots of the plants so very little wastage.
When it froze here in Texas this February my barrels (North Side) of house froze. Even being proactive letting part of water out for them to expand, they turned into Webble Wobbles once frozen. Zero degrees. Luckily once unfrozen they were okay, no damage to the barrels but good idea to either drain them or figure out cold weather protocol. Looks nice Lily and love the black barrels to protect from sunlight and algae. I also have multiple barrels joined together. Great use of water storage.
If you plan to use the rain water for drinking purposes - I recommend placing the barrels on a wood platform. Chemicals from the concrete will leech into the water.
That looks like a professional quality job Lilly, using the right tools and parts. I don't remember the last time it rained here.
The black barrel color is good because you get some solar heating benefits which will give you a bit more protection against freezing in the winter.
Trying to be helpful here: Shouldn't the overflow be on the last barrel, and shouldn't the barrel connections be at the top instead of the bottom?
i was wondering the same, if there's a small leak in any of the connections, you lose all the water of the three barrels water... plus having the connections much higher makes some kind of gravity filter for heavy impurities...
@@fatandfurious5940 All of that, and I think to get the best pressure and circulation/refresh of the water in the multiple barrels I think you would want to do a setup for the output spout where it draws from all of the barrels at once, so that you're not always having to draw off whichever barrel is the most full (assuming all the overflow and transfer hoses are at/near the top). It does introduce more failure points to do it that way, but I think if you're using really robust hardware like Lilly is here, it would be just fine.
@@innercityprepper I think I would have put all the connections at the top just so I don't lose a full barrel of water if I need to work on the system, or if one gets contaminated I'll still have 2 more. I've heard about not putting barrels directly on concrete, something about leeching... I don't know if that's true or not but I put wood under my barrels. I use them mostly for plants but they are also part of my water plan that I can filter if needed.
@@SoloHiker1 Good stuff, thanks! I actually have a sorta weird micro-barrel setup where I use 4 15 gallon food-grade barrels. Since I want to be able to store what I need in some situations (especially the cold 7 month winters where I live) I have them set up where they're not very visible at all to curious onlookers and I can easily scoop any of them onto a dolly and haul it into my house where I can use a pump or gravity siphon to run the water through several filtering options, depending on what I want to use the water for. For the garden obviously I'll just keep the water as-is from the rain and water what needs to be watered. For potable water I process with a tiny amount of pool shock and then run it through a Sawyer or a Berkey or both. You'd never know it wasn't from a Dasani bottle :D
My next water catch move is going to be figuring out a good way to harvest snow without wasting too much energy. Since I'm in the frozen north I've got a TON of snow I can use, and the great thing is, it sticks around all winter long.. so I could harvest it from anywhere, it could have fallen months ago and I can still use it!
Water pressure will even out the levels. It’s how a manometer works.
Lily, I don't know for sure but I've often heard it said that allowing your rain barrels to touch concrete directly is not a good idea. Might be something for you to check into. Love you and your Channel and I've learned so much watching what you do!
Correct , a plain ceder un-finished board is best for rot resistance.
Plastic barrels WILL leach cemicals from pressure treated lumber and cement.
I made an IBC collection tub. Can't believe how fast it fills up! I need more!
I am very glad that you are happy with your system. I am however a bit perplexed as to why you elected to connect the barrels together at the bottom instead of the top.

Inspiring work. Don't forget the mesh to cover the holes.
When I do mine I'm going to be starting my containers with a washout and tap water (drinking water, not garden use). I'm probably looking at a slightly different usage case ... the stuff that runs off a roof isn't nice for long term storage and rain gutters will almost certainly have algae or mold colonies they're injecting into the water stream. Sure it'll do in a pinch for emergencies but the less organic matter introduced the better. Nice barrels btw! I'll have to see if we have any similar offerings here.
With all the droughts underway, water restrictions are never far behind.
@Aaron Sager Keeping it simple helps immensely. This is basic prep for areas prone to utility disruption.
If you really want a laugh though, check out all those people that bought nuke shelters during the pandemic ... most of them are so badly designed and poorly built it's comical.
That is why we use the 7 rain barrels (some hidden underground) with ~1600L capacity around the house only for watering the garden, so we hardly ever need tapwater for that. No intention to use that for drinking, but in an emergency situation we could filter and cook it, to make it drinkable.
I'm a little bewildered by this video, because I thought most people with a garden catch rainwater for watering plants, since tap water is expensive and also to hard at many places.
@@haifutter4166 I should have done this a long time ago. I just never had the time for this project.
@@SurvivalLilly I often procrastinate too or have no spare time. No need to apologise. Thanks for taking the time and making these videos.
Love the water catching system
Amazing idea use of rainwater today I am going to use this idea because I also need to much of water
I need water for washing bike and animals and farming
Sister really missed you please make more video of new ideas and survival
A Christian camp gave me five 55 gallon water barrels. 4 for water and 1 for compost! Great for a survival prep.
Well done, pretty standard to have rainwater tanks here in Australia, where I grew up on a farm that was our only water supply, we had 3 tanks on the house, and 1 on each shed
I found out the state I'm in not only allows rain water collection (US states are not all alike), but also encourages it! I may be looking into this for my garden. We're kind of hit or miss in the summer on rain.
Well done Lilly!
I have two clear barrels for garden water and two dark blue for drinking water. Used that fancy water storage device for your garden
You can make your own Boogie Brew tea for an organic soil in those barrels and another trip to the hydro store for an air pump.
As an engineer who works at a water plant, make sure you filter and treat roof water. Bird poop pathogens and excessive exhaust chemicals can concentrate. Reverse osmosis filter & bleach before drinking. Good layout though!
A one way valve would prevent the water from flowing back out of the pump hose, and shortening the length of hose would help a lot. That’s a lot of length and height to overcome before the motor starts pumping. Also, water pumps last longer if they are not dry started. The stuff I mentioned prior should really help.
I can't tell you how many times a hole saw set like that would have helped me. I'm going to get one from Amazon right now! :)
I am your silent viewer and I love watching your videos. You are energetic. Keep it up
Lilly: Can you believe in parts of the USA folks can't even harvest rainwater? Luckily I am not in one of them and am setting up my own system as I write this. If you ever come over for Blade Show to promote your knives you can stay with me and my wife as a lot of folks do each year. No charge and we will feed you well! I just realized I have been following you for 10 years now. Happy UA-cam anniversary.
I believe, and I may be wrong on this. For the most part the ban is not on collecting rain water that falls on your house. It is a ban on people, ranchers mostly, who where building large flat structures untended just to be used to harvest rain water. In some cases they had large banks of solar panels set up and were just collecting the rain that fell on them. In other cases they were little more then timber scaffolding covered with corrugated steel roofs.
'Land of the free' lol
what rainwater?
@@Cruusher LOL well ya. You kinda have to live someplace where it actually rains once in a while for this to work. :)
@@markhadley1545 There was plenty of rain under Trump, Creepy-Joe is keeping all the rain for himself and his buddies.
that was awesome !!!!!! you should start installing them for other people for a bit of extra money !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lilly, it looks good! I would like to see you put a larger suction device so you don't starve the pump and have a cavitation issue. Most of those little transfer centrifugal pumps can pump a large volume. I think I will do a similar project at my home to. Thank you for sharing your skills
You did great. Good job. Stay well and be safe.
Great job Lilly, as always Thank You.
Great job… now I’m thinking about installing a couple of rain barrels myself.
good work, i hope for you that the winter wont destroy your work..... good luck
a great idea I would buy extra parts probably four of each kit just in case something fails my wife and I love this channel great videos👍
You shouldn't have needed an additional overflow. The catch funnel that you showed is designed to back-feed once your barrels are full and then the excess rain water will just go down through the open center and out your downspout. My only concern is that you didn't run your rain water through a first-flush system to discard the initial wash of your roof to not collect bird droppings, dust, etc. that collects on your roof since the previous rain. Looks like a great system otherwise.
The connection hoses are usually at the top to overflow into the Next barrel and to reduce the pressure on the holes which reduces the chance of a leak. The connections between the barrels can then have hose's reaching to the bottoms of each barrel to Syphon into each other
Great set up Lilly 👍🏻
Good representation of wisdom & skill.
Interesting water collection system.
Well done Lilly! 👍😁
I would put some type of screen in the top of the roof to keep debris out of the barrels.ty Lilly
Great video and installation guide. Enjoyed.
have a roll of chicken wire sticking out of the top part of the gutter down pipe add on - to stop leaves going into your tank.
Also you can filter your rainwater by having a mesh ball above the connecter inside the down pipe and fill it up with small stones and big sand
Great looking system. I'd do a manual pump instead, like those old-timey ones. If your not getting water, you're not probably getting electricity either. Also, they have great flow.
Very well done Lilly it will help you alot.
Nice setup. I built one about 20 years ago and learned a few things while doing it. If there is ANY chance the water will be used for cooking or drinking I highly advise it be filtered BEFORE it goes into storage. Since rain water is essentially distilled water it also helps to buffer it. I used 5 gallon buckets to fashion a sediment pre-filter with the outfow from that going through a carbon filter and then that was trickled over crushed limestone to re-mineralize it. In the storage tank I had a UV steriliser lamp that would be used for an hour every few days and this kept the water fresh and potable. I think that if the water went past the UV before going into the barrels that would also serve the same effect.
And this is all meaningless if the water is only going to be used for washing or non-dietary uses like doing dishes or washing clothes.
Excellent and thank you.
Very handy and brilliant gal !
Great job there! Maybe you should put some filter so no leaves or small debris will enter the plastic container 😊
I collect rain water for my flowers, I think it's better for the plants.
Luv your videos.
That's a nice clean setup that you have there and it should work well. Never mind all of the negative comments about the installation, perhaps you could improve it by a few percent with some fine tuning but not enough to make a real difference. 👍 I am intrigued by your old tank, it seems to be a far more efficient use of space than the barrels. If your primary objection is lack of access for cleaning then I'm sure that with your hole saw set or your jig saw you could make an access hole in the top big enough to clean it through. And fashioning a flat cover should be simple enough. Good luck, I am really enjoying the variety of your content these days!
Last year hubby built trash can rain catchment systems but only got two days of a drizzle rain
Praying for more this year in commiefornia
It's like one giant sick theme park here. And I don't mean the bat plague.
Thanks Lilly.
Great job Lily! That is a great idea.👍
Not sure if anyone else already commented this, but... I would look into some kind of mesh, or filter, to be placed over your intake and overflow ports, and also the holes on the lids. I'm not sure what the bug situation is where you are. But here in Virginia, bugs (especially mosquitoes) will find a way into anything which has standing water. Just a thought.
Great work Lilly! If I may suggest using some automotive style radiator hose clamps on your hose connections, so the hose does not slip off. Cheers.
Looking Good Lilly.
Always spot-on ❤️
Great video and you did a great job with the rainwater harvesting system.
Good job Lily!
Schlau und gut liebe Lilly! Sehr, sehr gut ;) LG Sepp
Lily is definitely in my Apoc-squad! :)
Good job Lilly. I think this system will do what you need for your garden.
Maybe valves between the barrels are useful if you want to do maintenance or add more barrels.
An interesting idea, maybe I'll use it later for my garden!
I learned so much. Good video. Thank you
A little advice on using hole cutting blades with HDPE....run the cutter in reverse. Forwards is too severe and the excess burrs on the plastic are annoying. In reverse it cuts slower, generates heat at the tooth tips and leaves less to trim off.
Also, if you're concerned about drought you need to work on reducing water loss. Mulching with any organic or stones, makes a huge difference. I use woodchip, bracken and grass mowings, and the worms soon drag it down.
Outstanding job Lilly. That system should last you a very long time.
Awesome! Nice work. Thanks for sharing.
