Small Scale Rainwater Harvesting Walkthrough - Blue Barrel Rainwater Catchment System

[@knowthyself690]

Thank you Dude. I from Chicago, but here in East Africa where it rains good. The people here actually walk and buy water to use. I simply thought that something on a small scale is doable. This video helped me greatly to start my imagination going on this issue.

Very nice. I think in addition to the first flush diverter you can also use the first tank to catch the early water by filling from the top and connect to the system at the top. This will make the system has even cleaner water.

Since you get alot of rain would you add more barrels to your system so you can harvest more water?

Certainly! I only have a small amount of space in my side yard, which is why I'm only using 2 barrels, but if I had more space or I wanted to store more water, I could add on as many barrels to this system as I wanted.
