The water towers are a way to gravity feed a water supply for different things. We've got giant ones for city water supplies (which is probably what the one in this episode is for) with fresh water pumped up into it and gravity forces it down and keeps water pressure steady.

[@IamMeHere2See]

To add onto this, water is pumped up almost constantly. The idea is that gravity will provide water during the times of day when demand is high & a regular pump wouldn't be able to keep up.

[@bonbonpony]

Isn't it that you need more pressure to pump all that water up than what you would normally require to pump it through the pipes to the city's houses? Why not pump them directly to the houses then, with lower pressure? :q Unless it's just for storage, then OK. It would also make more sense if it collected rain water, because rain water comes down from the sky naturally, so it doesn't have to be pumped up. The rain water collected in that container could then be distributed to households with gravity's help.

[@WeeLassReacts]

Thats FASCINATING!!! All our water runs underground! So we have nothing like this anywhere in Scotland (not that I've seen)

[@bdk336]

@@bonbonpony The water gets pumped up into the tower slower than gravity can feed it out. The gravity feeding system helps keep the pressure in the pipes up when the demand gets high. It's basically pre-pumping the water now so you don't have to pump a whole lot at once later. I don't believe they actually pump the entire water supply through the tower but even if they do the limits on the system have more to do with the maximum height you can pump the water to than with how much energy you expend because most of the energy is conserved within the system: almost all the energy used to pump it up there becomes gravitational potential energy which can be used to send it just as far. As for why they don't collect rainwater: because most American households/pipe systems don't have a feed for greywater all the collected water would still need to be fed into water treatment to clean it. They also wouldn't be very efficient water collectors compared to just using existing or man made lakes, ponds and rivers which have a much greater surface area from above.

The primary function of water towers is to pressurize water for distribution. Elevating the water high above the pipes that distribute it throughout the surrounding building or community ensures that hydrostatic pressure, driven by gravity, forces the water down and through the system. Yes most are filled with water.

[@speedy01247]

Imagine how much more it would cost to push water throughout a town rather then have a big pump push it into a tower which then uses gravity to push it down.

[@wendyheatherwood]

You probably have seen a few water towers around. It's just the most common ones in the UK are rectangular. They're quite often found next to railway lines. Sometimes the metal tank will be visible at the top of the building, but a lot of them just look like regular brick buildings with no windows on the top floor. When we do have round ones they tend to either look like big industrial concrete things or are disguised as fancy towers.

[@jaysea3690]

I think the ones next to railways lines are are hangover from when steam trains were more common, as they would need to regularly fill up on water to make steam to drive the engines.

[@TheRhuen]

most in the US don't look like the cartoon ones anymore either, even in rural areas you will get at most a skinny metal tower with a sphere. Otherwise its a round metal drum of a building or a smaller version of that ontop off a building.

[@SonesBen]

Modern water towers in the US don't really look like that anymore, either. The "wooden barrel on a wooden scaffolding"-style water tower is the sort of thing that was common in the 1930s. Most US water towers today look more like this: preview.redd.it/r0wb5bklw49y.jpg?auto=webp&s=fa6dac0a323651fcc3eb11e2ee979bebab7dba62

Mosco: "What's his tattoo?" There are these Gravity Falls shorts about subtle mysteries and the tattoo may be involved, and they are canon to the story and they naturally take place before season 1 episode 19, if you plan to watch them. I love Mabels' finger sweater.

One of the reasons big standalone water towers are probably more common in parts of the US than in the UK is that we have the great plains which are very flat so you have to create artificial height for them to do their job effectively. If you have a large hill nearby you can just build the water tank there without needing the obvious tower, but many parts of the US don't have natural elevation.

That style of water tower isn't for conservation. It's actually for water pressure. Most of our water lines are on grids, so you need a high amount of pressure so they can get to all the houses evenly. Boring, complicated details aside, having a huge amount of water really high up is our solution to that problem.

[@djesse19]

Water towers are elevated so they can pressurize the water supply for the town/building/etc. They can also be used for extra water storage in event of fires or other emergencies.

Here’s a thought. Compared to Mabel who stayed behind to help their Gruncle Stan get a date, enter a singing contest to help her new friends STAND UP TO THEIR LOCAL Bully, when was the last time Dipper did something that was either A) not to save Mabel from GENUINE THREATS or B) self-serving. Even now, Mabel is doing something to help her Uncle. And at her own expense because she is the one with a fear of heights now. I love Dipper, but it’s as Mabel said before. Dipper gets in his own way and he can get a win when he gets out of his own way.

[@dv7533]

Water towers are a low tech way to regulate water pressure and even out water flow requirements. The difference in altitude between the water tower and the water user causes the water pressure and it stays relatively even regardless how full the tower is through gravity. So you can fill the tower at the average rate of consumption and you can have big peaks and dips in the actual usage and the pressure stays pretty even. This way the pumps don't have to be able to provide the peak consumption flow, just the average flow. Here in the Netherlands we still have a few old monumental ones, some still in use, others converted to other uses. Nowadays over here their purpose has been taken over by using bigger pump systems that can regulate water pressure by themselves because that is cheaper now with our advantages in technology. The same can also be achieved by having a reservoir on or in a hill or anything tall, as long as it's tall enough. Once you have buildings that are higher than the water pressure can manage, the buildings have to have water pumps in them to pump the water to the higher floors, or to a water tank on the roof, which works the same way as a water tower.

[@ConnorSinclairCavin]

Water towers are an emergency rationing system set into the standard water piping system, they are kept full and fresh in normal times and act as a buffer of potable water so that in times of drought, problems at the water plant, mass fires, or for some other emergencies they can have their storage released and give a location water due to gravitational flow. However you can see abandoned ones in many places, and some have been repurposed over the years as well.

[@redmagus7334]

I know I'm a year too late, but on the water tower thing. I'm studying civil engineering and yes, they're all over America. They do contain water. There is a pumping station that pumps water into the towers, which are typically near the location you want to distribute the water. I along with my partners designed a water distribution system and we had to implement a water tower into our design. Water towers provide consistent water pressure to homes and businesses. The height of the water in the tower creates pressure through gravity, which helps ensure a reliable and stable flow of water throughout the distribution system. There is a lot of engineering that goes into how much water, emergency water, fire protection, etc. I didn't know Scotland didn't have water towers, that's really interesting!

[@SebastianWeinberg]

It _was_ technically possible to deduce that "Manly" Dan Corduroy was Wendy's dad, but it would take a good memory and an eagle eye. In episode 2 ( _Legend of the Gobblewonker_ ) Dan was shown fishing with those three boys, and they referred to him as "Dad". Five episodes later ( _Double Dipper_ ) Wendy showed a photo of herself with those same three boys and called them her brothers. In addition to that, there is the purely circumstantial stuff, like all of them sharing a hair colour and Wendy sitting next to Dan in the diner in episode 6. The mystery of Stan's tattoo is brought up explicitly in one of the _Gravity Falls_ shorts that were aired in the year between season 1 and 2, and the question is resolved in Season 2 (amidst a _massive_ avalanche of revelations, origins, and exposition). Water towers were (and are still) used in Europe as well, though around here they are usually either built of stone (the old ones) or metal. The point of a water tower is to let gravity keep up the pressure in the surrounding city's water lines. That way the water pumps are only required to push water up into the reservoir when needed, but do not have to run constantly to keep up the pressure in the pipe network. Basically it's a clever form of energy storage, in the form of potential energy. This week's code translates to, "Sorry, Dipper, but your Wendy is in another castle."

[@sasamichan]

Every town no matter how small has a water tank all sorts of different shapes, some can even have art on them they hold water in them and use gravity to push it threw but I need to do a bit of reference to get the details. A water tower is an elevated structure supporting a water tank constructed at a height sufficient to pressurize a distribution system for potable water, and to provide emergency storage for fire protection. Water towers often operate in conjunction with underground or surface service reservoirs, which store treated water close to where it will be used. Other types of water towers may only store raw (non-potable) water for fire protection or industrial purposes, and may not necessarily be connected to a public water supply. Water towers are able to supply water even during power outages, because they rely on hydrostatic pressure produced by elevation of water (due to gravity) to push the water into domestic and industrial water distribution systems; however, they cannot supply the water for a long time without power, because a pump is typically required to refill the tower. A water tower also serves as a reservoir to help with water needs during peak usage times. The water level in the tower typically falls during the peak usage hours of the day, and then a pump fills it back up during the night. This process also keeps the water from freezing in cold weather, since the tower is constantly being drained and refilled. History Although the use of elevated water storage tanks has existed since ancient times in various forms, the modern use of water towers for pressurized public water systems developed during the mid-19th century, as steam-pumping became more common, and better pipes that could handle higher pressures were developed. In the United Kingdom, standpipes consisted of tall, exposed, N-shaped pipes, used for pressure relief and to provide a fixed elevation for steam-driven pumping engines which tended to produce a pulsing flow, while the pressurized water distribution system required constant pressure. Standpipes also provided a convenient fixed location to measure flow rates. Designers typically enclosed the riser pipes in decorative masonry or wooden structures. By the late 19th century, standpipes grew to include storage tanks to meet the ever-increasing demands of growing cities. Many early water towers are now considered historically significant and have been included in various heritage listings around the world. Some are converted to apartments or exclusive penthouses.[4] In certain areas, such as New York City in the United States, smaller water towers are constructed for individual buildings. In California and some other states, domestic water towers enclosed by siding (tankhouses) were once built (1850s-1930s) to supply individual homes; windmills pumped water from hand-dug wells up into the tank in New York. Water towers were used to supply water stops for steam locomotives on railroad lines.[citation needed] Early steam locomotives required water stops every 7 to 10 miles (11 to 16 km). for more information google the wiki I was copying or google images "water Tower" other fun landmarks we have in America (see Goggle images) Extra Credit if you do a reaction video Water Tanks American Roadside attractions (the Mystery Shack is one such roadside attraction and reflects real places we have here) Light Houses Advertising Mascots Restaurant franchises Sculptures, monuments and memorials 9/11 Memorials Revolutionary War and Civil War historic sites Artistic power boxes Public Art works' Muffler men American Folk Lore figures and Urban Legends or Cryptids places named for celebrities murals Colonial towns Old west towns national parks and natural wonders filming locations from movies places related to historic figures actually as I list stuff, since I didn't know water towers were uniquely American Im not shore what classifies as a thing only Americans have. like do I put suspension bridges on the list? or grave yards?

[@franklinrowland1093]

I work in Water distribution, water towers provide water to a region through gravity. The higher the tower, the greater the water pressure. The company providing water will pump the water to the tower and then distribute the water to any homes or businesses. They're also only needed in flat areas, mountains normally have tanks on them providing the elevation needed.

[@franklinrowland1093]

I should add, many skyscrapers have their own water tank(s) on or near the top of the building.

Very late comment but, water towers do hold water. It's pumped up into the tank and is used for many things depending on the area. Smaller ones are placed on buildings in cities as local water reserves for example.

[@mrpalaces]

I think the thing about water towers is because most of the populated land in the US is flat, so water supply constantly needs power to keep the pressure in the system. Adding a reservoir higher then the rest of the town not only ensures pressure for when the power goes out, but also eliminates the need of a sophisticated system to keep the pressure constant for a whole town: Any peaks or lows in the incoming pressure turns into a harmless level change in the water in the tank, instead of affecting directly the domestic supply of the people.

[@corwinchapman4565]

water towers essentially store potential energy. You pump the water up, storing the energy used to do so, then when you need to use it, the weight of the water causes it to shoot out with pressure.

[@TheRhuen]

Yeah the water towers as some have pointed out are gravity feeds. Fresh water is usually pumped up into it and then even if power goes out there will still be water for a time as it feeds back down. Old timey ones were also wells, but these days they are fancier looking, smoother and metallic with a solid body, you get small ones atop tall buildings, and you even in the desert will have these huge tanks *that can actually be refilled by trucks bringing in water* that sit atop hills above a town *for gravity feeding the water to the town below*.

[@ghostewriter]

We see Wendy's brothers in the clone episode as a photo, and we actually see her and Manly Dan in the diner in Dipper vs Manliness! I enjoy when shows don't always feel the need to hammer in details like this. We can piece it together ourselves thru background details!

[@solsystem1342]

This looks like a job for random physics person! Water towers exist to provide water pressure to the water supply system without relying on electricity or tying to exactly match use. Since water pressure increases with depth you can just calculate how much height you need to get the pressure you want and it just works. It doesn't need to be powered or any maintenance besides refilling the tower as the water as it is used. It's a dead simple solution to what would otherwise be a complex problem. Of course, the area they serve needs to all be roughly at the same height otherwise the pressure will varry outside of the desired range. Also, it's not worth building unless there are a lot of people. Real engineering has a good approachable video on it I'm sure. Random physics person away!

[@Finkeren]

I love this episode, not just for the video game references, but it's a better takedown of toxic masculinity than episode 6. There are so many subvertions of expectation. It's set up as if Dipper "manning up" will allow him to overcome the odds, but no he just gets beaten to a pulp even worse than Robbie could have done (if Robbie wasn't just as much of a "whimp") as Dipper. Oh, and the water tower is literally just that: a water tower. Gravity feeding is by far the easiest way to secure a steady water supply for a town. As long as the tank is in a higher position than any faucet in town, you have running water. And I can guarantee you, that you have these in the British Isles, though they are probably more permanent structures and less obvious.

[@inspectorhound7931]

If you go to Wikipedia and look up "water tower" you'll see some significant tower listed, and some cool pictures. But yeah, as others have already mentioned, it's for emergencies mostly. Sudden need for lots of water? One huge tank of H2O coming up.

So fresh water towers help supplement water storage and delivery to houses. Water is pumped up at night when the demand of electricity is low then is released back to help the water pumps. It is easier to use gravity to push water around then electric pumps.

[@NecroWolfExPaladin]

An electric pump fills the towers up, and then in the case of an emergency and the power goes out, gravity allows water to be useable until it completely drains. I don't know if they are part of the normal water system or only for emergency hydrants. Firefighter trucks use them I think.

this is alolanraichu by the way,youtube decided to screw up my username and now it's taken by someone else and I didn't want my 2009 username so I changed it to what I wanted or at least kinda wanted but not really....I'm so angry that I'm glad you uploaded a new reaction video now I can cheer up

20:57 Decrypted: Sorry Dipper, but your Wendy is in another castle.

15:00 water towers if I’m not mistaken draw water from underground slowly, and gravity pulls it down into a house or facility. I have a stock tank and a windmill. So water gets drawn from the windmill and is stored in the tank.

[@christianschoff2490]

They pull water out of the ground and store it until it is needed and then they use gravity to pull it down a tube when they need it.

[@bdk336]

always loved how they play with the animation and arcade game references in this. They really put in extra effort with the visual direction and animation to make it more than just a basic reference and played with it a lot. As mentioned by others water towers are very much a thing at least in America, they're especially common or at least especially visible in small towns on flat terrain. They're basically engineers going "Hey physics, we've gotta pump a bunch of water to people but it's like super expensive to do that when everyone needs water at once. Could we like, pre-pump the water before we actually need it?" and physics going, "Sure I've got you covered have fun." If you're super curious here's a short video on the how/why: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4val5aDiKl1ftU

BEAUTY Waddles does, in fact, become indispensable. And... Tattoo? Stan doesn't have a tattoo.

[@moseshorowitz4345]

Go down to London, there are plenty of old water towers there. They're just made of brick, and look like towers, not tubs on stilts. Water towers are used to ensure water pressure where supply is varying and unreliable.

[@ConnorSinclairCavin]

I need that shirt of mabels with the two hands…i feel like you could likely use a few too haha

[@tenmark7055]

Water is pumped into the tower to create water pressure at the tap and also for putting out fires

[@Drako2k0]

Only just found your channel, I’m a few months late but I love how protective over dipper you are 😂

[@ShizuruNakatsu]

I've always wondered why Mabel wears the Irish colours in this episode. It's hard not to notice, being from Ireland xD

[@bloodybee3553]

This is the child that would eventually beat the hell out of Gideon and throw a punch at an all powerful interdimensional demon

[@FrogmanAnime]

I don’t think we’ve seen manly Dan and his sons and Wendy in the same scene till this episode, so the fact that the penny didn’t drop till now is forgiven. However we may have seen Manly Dan in episode 3 he was in the crowd watching. But we had no way of knowing that Dan and Wendy were related then

[@merezko4339]

Waddles is the MOST IMPORTANT character in the show! Blenden(the Time Traveler) called Waddles their leader. A coincidence? I think NOT!

[@claritale_]

Well... If I had to decide between abandoning my pet or my brother not having a perfect "date" with a girl who don't even like him back, the choice is pretty obvious here, I wouldn't even hesitate, which maybe makes me a worst person than Mabel, because at least she did try to help Dipper and didn't complain much after, she just got depressed, if I was her I would have fought my brother with tooth and nail.

[@itsmxtwist]

My opinion on the whole Mabel and waddle thing. Dipper changed the original timeline and was the reason she lost waddles in timeline, he was simply restoring the original timeline which the time police would have probably eventually restore it as well. Also I think Mabel keeping a pet she was attached to is more important than dipper getting his chance with Wendy, especially since even then dipper and Wendy were still friends.

[@dracoangelrojo]

You might have a point if it wasn't because later we see Mabel placing her random crushes of the week over Dipper's time with Wendy, his pool job and his laptop. I dunno, I find very hypocritical to put Dipper's crush under Mabel's crush, when seriously, Mabel's crushes are far more unreallistic and have bigger age gaps than Dipper's. Not fair for Dipper always having to be the one losing.

[@razependragon7472]

Thx for the reaction

[@gle._.]

9:18 Yeahhh… abbbout that… The tatoo has A LOT of lore behind…

[@goober1454]

dipper and mabel are twins. They're the same age.

[@gle._.]

We’re getting closer to episode 1x19…

[@jeremyferrell9753]

They r filled with water and help put out fires

[@tadeolaguarda6965]

15:07 if i'm not mistake, those store water to use in case of a drought so people don't run out of water in the house, the water is deliver to it inside through pipes that conwct it to the main water suply and the houses of the town. What are the chances of her actually reading this?

[@jaxcraft2848]

Half-way through the season!

[@KingVasuki]

6:22 Preach!

[@PrincessOfSwords]

While you were trying to think of something that would happen if people didn't subscribe, the first thing that popped into my head was "for every person that doesn't subscribe a cupcake gets stepped on"

[@mr.e6282]

Water tower are there to keep good water pressure

[@Dead-fire]

Mosco: We’re a very Very Rainy Me: Um, So is Florida or Only South Florida I think I don’t know about North Florida maybe Ask (You know Who) About It

[@alexlanning8330]

I love how much you love Dipper. Him and Stan are the best

[@BlahBlahWoofWoof12]

4:13 This but for Mabel

[@wtimmins]

Wendy being related to Lumberjack dude and the other kids wasn't made explicitly clear before. You aren't stupid. ;)

[@R0ary]

I mean, for redeeming qualities of Mabel... There's always her taste in sweaters. She has fantastic sweaters. I don't even like sweaters and I'd totally wear some of hers. Or, I guess it's "jumpers" over there? Do you also call them sweaters interchangeably, or are they just called jumpers?

[@nuggetsplace8273]

IM SORRY IN ADVANCE BECAUSE I AM VERY ANNOYING WITH DEFFENDING MABEL. Why does waddle's have to prove to be ''useful''? It made Mabel happy, it didnt hold any less significance than Dipper's crush, its something she wanted and that made her happy and a concept she got attached too. Dating Wendy is something he wanted and that made him happy and a concept he got attached to.

[@thatsimple_simp]

Everyone of those people who didn't like out of the 1k veiws has confirmed that they're ok with a waddles dying. 😔

[@mvhuninn420]

I read a lot of not all of Mables 'selfishness' as nerodivergent stuff. Probobly adhd or something the way she gets so easily distracted. It always makes me uncomfortable how some people react to her.

[@longgonelocust2333]

Do you plan on watching the Gravity Falls shorts? They aired in between season 1 & 2.
