Installation of a 1000 Gallon rain barrel collection system in Minnesota. Still photos and a few video clips of the project as it progressed. Next season there will be a solar pump, overflow and a leaf filter installed.
We put out 200+ feet of regular garden hose and we also use a splitter on the 1 1/2 inch outlet for a second hose. There is always enough pressure to move the water wherever we need.
this is great!!! Looks like it would create a lot of water pressure too. Wondering how far can you bring the hose before it starts to lose pressure?

Nice setup you have...although I'm not sure how necessary the tie downs are.
