WaterTanks
3 concrete tanks were installed in the back yard to collect our Geothermal waste water which is un-treated. When both Geo units are running est water output will be about 18 gpm.
I also had our rain gutters piped into the tanks plus the french drain system around the basement footers. I'm keeping the footer drain system separate from the gutters as when it rains heavy Id rather not have all that water flooding my basement footers and ground.
Two tanks are 750 Gallons and the 3rd is 500 giving us 2000 gallons of water for irrigation or any other need I may have. Since all the tanks are connected at the bottom with a 4" line, I'll have the sprinkler company drop a pump in a tank and pipe it into the main sprinkler line. Planning on also using the tanks to keep the pool filled.
