Using a Rainwater Harvesting Water Storage Tank or Cistern Tank for Household and Irrigation Use
Highland Tank Rainwater Harvesting Tank
Good morning. I have property in the hills and am thinking about adding a water storage tank for household and irrigation use. I'd like something in the area of 20,000 gallons. It would be outdoors under the shade of the trees. What would you suggest?
It would be for long term use and has an elevation of probably 15 feet from its location to the cabin. I'm just in the "I wonder if we should add a tank" stage. I'm in Northern California. I'd hate to take up any of your time for just information.
Thank You for your inquiry. It is not a problem. The different projects are interesting and it is always a pleasure to work with someone to find the right solution for them. It is no inconvenience at all. We have portable/collapsible tanks as well as fixed tank options.
An economical and green solution is a Rainwater Harvesting Tank. The Rainwater Harvesting Tank can be portable or for a more permanent solution, steel. This pillow tank comes with a standard harvesting system and can easily be stored in attics, greenhouses, and even under decks.
As you stated, you want to store this tank outdoors. The Pillow Tank can be stored outdoors, but we recommend using a ground cloth to protect the tank from abrasion or puncture.
The HighDro Rainwater Collection Tank from Highland Tank can be installed above ground or below ground and can be used in conjunction with the HighDro Pure Rainwater Harvesting System and/or the HighDro Modular Rainwater System.
A Cistern Tank could also be used. A Cistern Tank can be installed with a a drinking water grade liner. It is ideal for improving and supplementing the supply of drinking water to private homes. Liners and Tanks are prefabricated to match your specific site needs.
Using the Water Consumption Calculator can help you to determine if 20,000 gallons in best for your home.
