Rainwater Collection System Part 1: Intro

You can't live without water. A rainwater collection system or collection system is a great way to collect and store water. This is the first of several videos on how I am doing our rainwater collection system. Make sure you watch all the videos in the series for step-by-step instructions.

Hello! Just watched this series of videos and just loved them! They are informational and after just purchasing two "water cubes", will be attempting to copy your design to a T. Do you happen to have a parts list available? I can send you my email if that is possible...

[LDSPrepper]

@CountryGirlChronicle Congratulations. Unfortunately don't have a parts list. I recommend making a drawing of the system you want and taking it to home depot and get some help from the plumbing department. I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help.

@LDSPrepper What section of CL would you find them and what are they called for those of us looking on CL in other States/Locations Great prepper video

[MrMarlinB]

@MonicaLeader Look for "barrels" or "totes" or "IBC" or as a last resort, "containers".

[LDSPrepper]

@MonicaLeader On CL I search for "55 gallon" or "275 tote". I don't look in any category, just "for sale".

Do you have a steel roof? I have tested my rain run-off and there is bleeb off from the asphalt shingles...we use cheap plastic sheeting and a dedicated gutter on a section of house...I don't know if you plan on drinking the water or filtering it.
