Why pump water from the depths, if it itself drips from the sky? Rainwater collection system for home. Another way to supply water.

In our time, with a bunch of different benefits and new technologies, there are places where people have banal problems with providing water. I'm not talking about African countries now, where this could be a global problem. It's about our so-called civilized world,

A specific case is my site.

• In one part of our SNT, people use water supply, but civilization has not reached my site... And to be happy I need to lay out a considerable amount (I thought so, about 300,000 rubles), for the organization of laying water supply.
• At the same time, no one has water wells in SNT, so it’s not even clear whether drilling will result or not. According to rumors, they drilled in the city, but shallow, and with poor water quality. Well, if you make an artesian well, then the price, like with a water supply system, will be large.

I do not need such benefits, I came to alternatives.

• At first, he did not believe anyone, and tried to get himself to the water.

Having suffered up to 20 meters, he gave up the whole thing, without any result.

• Now I am mastering a 4-meter Abyssinian, with a large debit, but very bad water. Here the main task is to purify the water.

Here is my DIY cleaning system. While testing, and the results are encouraging.

But it turns out that there is still a very interesting option for providing water.

And it can be said on the surface.

The fact that many collect rainwater, I certainly heard. But I always imagined that it was used for watering ...

But this option can be scaled.

• Just instead of a barrel, we take a container of a much larger volume (tokill for five).
• And we put the simplest system of rough water purification.

And the option of water supply at home is ready, albeit not drinking, but still clean water that can be used for domestic needs.

And there are real examples of such systems.

Although, of course, one cannot do without nuances.

• Firstly, you need to place this container somewhere, but you can’t put it in the middle of the yard.
• Therefore, you need to dig a pit to hide it all underground.
• To this add a container of appropriate strength, which will endure being in the ground.
• The organization of drains, from all possible surfaces, is also not an easy task. And here you will have to adjust all the buildings to it, and not to your tastes.
• Well, the main thing is the dependence on the weather.

Even if it rains most of the timeand this is by the way my version, Leningrad region).It is not a fact that somehow one day the period of a lingering sun will not come. And even a large supply of water may not be enough.

Well, let's not forget that there is winter. Here the collection of rainfall stops altogether.

It turns out a working, but exotic option.

As a result, such a system would be ideal, somewhere in the tropics, where it rains frequently and it is warm all year round.

In my realities, this is a maximum auxiliary option, but which has many nuances. And I don't see the point in bothering with it.

Friends, how do you look at such a solution, maybe someone uses it, or knows real examples? Write all thoughts and experiences in the comments, it's always helpful.
