2020 was the leanest year for rainfall since I moved here 13 years ago... only 2" in twelve months. I have 7,750 gallons on tap out of a total storage capacity of 20,000 gallons. My daily water use is around 20 gallons - 16 for Ben, 4 for me. Looking forward to a little more rain this year. I need at least 6" to fill up all my tanks.
Do you use a pump to get water to point of use or gravity?
gravity
Don't worry, Biden will maker it rain and your barrels will be overflowing.
Any chance to build a bigger catchment?
