Nothing fancy, but just showing how we set up our rain water collection to provide another idea for those looking at a similar project. Previous videos show construction of the lean-to.
It works really well so far, and provides significantly more water than we need for the orchard and the wash water in the camper. The covered area has been a major improvement in our ability to work outside and store stuff out of the elements.
I mention in the video that we treat the water with ClO2 for the camper wash/shower water, but I forgot to mention the dosage which is 2 drops per gallon of the MMS1 solution (22% NaClO2 and 4% HCl). The ClO2 treatment seems to help alot with chiggers, fleas, ticks, etc. We don't use this for cooking or drinking, but if we had to in a pinch, we would treat it with the MMS and then run it through our Alexapure which would remove a large majority of toxins, mold spores, heavy metals, etc. Or, better yet, we could make distilled water out of it with our off-grid water distilling device and remineralize the water to our specs.
