A summer project is complete! Just in time as we are under water restrictions due to a drought.
Installed under my front porch is a 300 gallon rainwater collector and is modeled after my Dad’s rain barrel. The main difference between ours is the pump is not hooked up to a pressure sensor. Rumor has it that the pumps used do better when there is a continuous flow of water through them (even though restricted) in order to keep them cool. We will see how each approach lasts over time.
