@@CastewaPL it’s a small structure for sure….but I’ve already got collection on all of my other structures so this was a good opportunity to do a set up video. As for the filling up. Yes it will. The roof space is approx 90sqft, which means that for every inch of rain I will collect approx 54 gallons. And our monsoon season can often get anywhere from a 5-6 inches to as much as nearly 20” like some places around here did last monsoon. So at a 300 gallon tank size, it would take approx 6” to fill it.
Great video, I have a 3,500 square feet shop and I am having a hard time finding a tank in middle TN. Where can I get the metal tanks that ship well because they are put together on site. I believe those tanks come in pieces. Thank you

Hands down, this is the BEST video I've watched to date that does an excellent job detailing out a rain harvesting system, including where to purchase kits. Good job!
Love your voice, tone, pace and demeanor. I could listen to you speak all day. Clear, professional and on target. You don't ramble. Appreciate that. Thanks for sharing, I learned a lot. I am wondering why you wouldn't push some flexible tubing over the first flush outlet and plumb it into the overflow pipe so you don't create erosion under the platform and further use all that water.
Thank you! Thank you! I appreciate the demonstration. Hubs & I bought a 1550 gallon water tank to be installed for home use, after our small home is built (on raw land, trying to clear). I was checking out Australia YT videos on how to install a water tank. Some YT-ers (US) spend 35+ minutes demonstrating how to install but don't really show all the components or really demonstrate the procedure of water harvesting. Ugh!!! So frustrating! So, thank you again. We live where we get rain throughout the year (summers can be drier though & 2 months of possible snow in winter) & plan on getting another 1500 gallon water tank to collect enough water, plus any other buildings to collect water from for future animals we hopefully will be getting so they can have water... (chicken coops, goat pens, etc.) Great video!!!!!! 👍👍👍
Nice to know that these kits exists! Thank you so much for taking the time to share this video. I really appreciate it and will take into consideration when I build my eco friendly home in the future.
A nice trick for starting the hole in the tank with the hole saw is to run it reverse to get the cut started. Bad things can happen running a large hole saw forward when starting the hole, and hard to get it started exactly where you want it. I've installed hundreds of tanks and it really helps. Nice work. Maybe a little overkill on the pipe diameter ;)
Haha….yes, very much overkill on the pipe size. But this was the only structure I had to do it on as my house, shop, and pretty much every other structure already has tanks and collection setup. So this was more of a demonstration opportunity to show the kit and also add a system to the container playhouse….even if it is capable of a lot larger volumes from a larger structure😉
@@homesteadonomics Major props to you for doing all that water harvesting. If we can get a million or two people on board maybe we could help return the Colorado river to its former glory.
Nice, smooth and easy to follow diy guide to the installation process. I love the way you build like a craftsman, surgeon and shop teacher, all rolled into one. This is how DIY RUclips videos should look like.
Thanks for the offer, but we don't use Telegram. We're happy to just learn from your homesteading experience as we prepare for our own homesteading journey.
@@alanmcrae8594 hi Alan, Sorry you got that spammer bot message. They occur on RUclips quite frequently these days unfortunately. And most often I can get to them before they accumulate. But I’ve been camping out of cell reception for the past week or so…. So now I’ve got quite a few to remove🤦♂️😂
Just typed in rainwater harvesting. This video came up. Just wanted to say wonderful video. Great narration. Didn't over explain or under explain. The system is too large for ne right now but in the future I will strongly consider this company based on this video. Thank you. I hooe the company sees these comments.
If you use gutter guards or gutter screens you will not have much worry about leaves and debris that is larger than a needle size. Great collection idea...
Great setup and video. One thing I would do is connect the first flush to the overflow pipe to prevent any pooling below, which could lead to foundation erosion or wood rot pending materials. This would also help with any insects that thrive around water keeping them further from the collection tank and building.
Great idea. I have, in addition to the house that has gutters, a separate building that used to be a "horseless carriage" garage, from the early 1900's, that doesn't have them. I've been thinking of adding them there to gather even more water.
Looking to snag two of these; one for my shop, the other for the home. Seems like a no-brainer to have a rain collection point. Saves water, and you’re utilizing a resource that would otherwise wash away. Thank you for the video!
Just a little tip, with your friction fit parts Joe, pop a screw in them so they stay solid you can simply unscrew to remove. It worked wonders for us to pass inspection with our temporary tank before our big tank arrived, the temporary tank obviously needed longer downpipes to the catch basket so they were frustrating hubby falling out just friction fit, so I suggested popping a screw in 🤷🏼♀️voilà problem solved, hubby obviously took the idea and passed it on as his own. His motto “ let’s work as a team and do it my way” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 another great video love the little 🐐 photo bombers in the background
Yes a screw retainer is a good tip. But more importantly, you were the first one to mention the goats in the background if that clip😂👍. I filmed that several times just to get the goats doing something silly in the background…. So that is literally my favorite part of doing this whole video….them playing🤣
Thank you for showing this process so completely. I've been considering adding a similar system to my 10x20' workshop and this is super-helpful! Great video, as always!
NE Ohio has been enjoying its own drought. Fortunately we live close enough to the Great Swamp Erie that we enjoy city water at reasonable prices. We do have an in ground cistern to collect roof water and a couple pumping solutions to share water with our gardens. I have shared this video with several friends that are in need of a turnkey system for water harvesting. Wishing you and your family a blessed week, gentle weather and restful evenings. Peace Joe
Thank you! I’d love to have the Great Lakes in my backyard….but I gotta settle for the great deserts down here😂 May you and your family have a blessed week as well😊🙏
That is a really slick setup. You might want to spray paint the plastic pipes with some silver or aluminum colored spray paint to protect them from the uv. They can get pretty brittle.
You know what…I intended to mention that during the video but just plain forgot. I do plan to paint then the same color as the side of the shipping container that they are mounted on. But I’m gonna wait until summers over😂
This system really looks good. Years ago I set up a first flush system on 2 downspouts. 1 to an IBC the other to a 3 55 gal barrel set up daisy chain style. I think the gods saw this and cancelled all scheduled rain for 2 years. Maybe I need to go out and wash a car or two.
Thank you for sharing God bless you and your family and protect you Open up my mind with everything going on in THIS world God continue guyding your life🙏🙏
Your narration is great! I have little faith in that plastic lasting more than a single Florida summer. If the wind and storms don't kill it the unmitigated sun certainly will.
It is! Kinda reduces the ‘fudge work and figuring’ from the process. Of course there will always be a little bit of that since everyone’s place will be slightly unique to their surroundings, etc,.
Really a great video, the only thing I would like to change is to adapt rain inlet to tank cover so you don´t have to open it manually when it rains, sometimes you´re not even at home. Thanks.
Thank you! This is a straight forward and detailed video which will help greatly for when we start all our off grid hidden valley farms and retreat cabins on the property.
I was directed here via a link in a Tank Depot email. I got a lot of inspiration from you about 5 years ago (circa the native corn patch irrigated off the driveway days!) and was stoked to see you pop up in that email. Congrats and thanks for what you do.
Perfect timing. I've finally decided to get of my butt and get busy on a rainwater harvesting system. I know you're a fireman, do you have a high pressure pump that you can hook up to your system to protect your property in case of a brush fire? I had asked on a local FB group if anyone in my area had experience with such pumps and everyone basically said "Don't be stupid, call 911 and run away.", which I though was the most asinine advice I'd ever heard. If lightning hits the brush near my house and starts a brush fire, I'm not about to flee and hope it doesn't reach my house before the fire department gets here if I have a chance of stopping it before it gets out of control. Better to put out a burning bush or two than wait 5, 10, 15 minutes for the fire dept. when that one burning bush has become a quarter acre wildfire.
I think it's been a while since I commented on one of your videos, and I just wanted to reiterate that you're doing great work. Your videos are interesting, well presented, and down-to-earth. Thanks for making these.
We have access to a well 2600' deep, which means that even though we're on the prairie, it amounts to an artesian. However, it's cased with galvanized, at least at the top, and I don't trust it for drinking. Your collection techniques will be great for potable water, and we can use the well for washing laundry and watering the yard.
Very thorough demonstration . Out here in Commiefornia this is probably "illegal" . That aside it doesn't seem that complicated to set up . I think I would need to make any catchment system winterproof . Thanks again .

We’re learning so much from you. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the great videos, super well explained. Clear and straightforward. Loving every minute! Warm greetings from Bali.
nice clean install. We dont have gutters along our roof, and when we do get heavy rains, it floods the back yard and part of the back porch due to a low area. Im thinking I could install one of those (and gutter system) along the back roofline and catch the water, and discharge the overflow directly into the breather/clean out for the sewer. That would prevent the flooding issue in the back yard possibly
I would definitely check out ‘French drains’ and possibly do a gutter run and then downspout that to the rocked area of the French drain. Should solve that problem perfectly😉👍
I got some good ideals from your video. I can not afford the complete systems so I improvise with what I can afford. I would had put my ditch further away from the leg of your tank platform. At 8 point something a pound for a gallon of water,there will be a lot of weight on the legs of your platform. Just something that got my attention. Have a great day.
Thank you Robert! As for PHX….I do as well. My sis lives up there and I’d like her to have more rainy relief days from the heat. Perhaps we might enter into a new southwest being wetter and cooler trend soon. Who knows🤷♂️😂
Hey thanks for sharing. This was very helpful to me. Just wondering if you would recommend putting gravel on the PVC pipe that is running underground. Thanks again. Also, was going to say, since you threaded the PVC fitting onto the water tank first, you can always extend the PVC pipe connected to your water outlet where you put in the spout. In other words, run the spout to the end of your raised structure that the tank sits on. I think that would have worked, too. Looks great.
Just depends on the part of AZ. Where you at? We’ve had a couple good rains this far this monsoon….. and last year was one of the best on record. Of course I’m in the S/SE part of AZ.
Another great video, thanx for sharing, when I build my new pigeon loft I am hoping to use rain water harvesting for all of the birds needs. Thanx again
Thanks for checking it out! And hopefully this might give you some ideas for that new pigeon loft. Btw….do you raise homing/carrier pigeons? Or what kind… very interesting…
@@RichOnLife-1 okay….I just looked them up and that is really cool! And 500miles?!? VERY interesting for sure. I think the only thing I knew about anything related to homing pigeons had to do with WWi I think… or maybe earlier, to send messages and such. I wish you and your birds the best of luck on the next one😊👍
I received a letter from our water company that stated our rates will double starting this month. Until now I could not justify a catchment system due to the reliability and low price of water. But now that has all changed due to Bidenomics. Thank you for the great video! I will start mine today!
Nice job, I made a rain water system but its not fancy. It does work though. I need to get a bug screen of sorts. Keep having to back flush it. Rain water did help me create some nice cannabis plants. Very smooth smoke. Friends are raving about it and all AI used was rain water off the greenhouse roof.

Rainwater Harvesting on a Small Structure instructions are very detailed
Thanks for the information 👍 I need to get serious about my rain water accumulation. Buying from a company that sends a system will help a lot.
Love it - you should talk with the container guy so they could incorperate this with a 20' solar container system...
Very informative. This kit looks better than what I was going to do. The kit will be on my list for the project this spring. Thank you!!
We have access to a well 2600' deep, which means that even though we're on the prairie, it amounts to an artesian.

One thought is to plumb your first flush drain into a wye on your overflow line so it takes the water away from the structure.
Now all we need is rain:)! AZ lacking.
Just depends on the part of AZ. Where you at? We’ve had a couple good rains this far this monsoon….. and last year was one of the best on record. Of course I’m in the S/SE part of AZ.
nice for you to add, now if the tanks were not so high!
Great to hear you're also on Rumble and Odysee! 👍🏻
Real nice setup
Thank you Kenneth!
Perfect video man. It had inspired me to go ahead and install a system at my house
Awesome job Joe! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
Thank you Fred!
A very simplified demonstration
Love these water storage videos!!! 👍👍👍
Another great video, thanx for sharing, when I build my new pigeon loft I am hoping to use rain water harvesting for all of the birds needs. Thanx again
Thanks for checking it out! And hopefully this might give you some ideas for that new pigeon loft. Btw….do you raise homing/carrier pigeons? Or what kind… very interesting…
@@homesteadonomics Racing Homers, they are very interesting birds, we race out to 500 miles.
@@RichOnLife-1 okay….I just looked them up and that is really cool! And 500miles?!? VERY interesting for sure. I think the only thing I knew about anything related to homing pigeons had to do with WWi I think… or maybe earlier, to send messages and such.
I wish you and your birds the best of luck on the next one😊👍
I received a letter from our water company that stated our rates will double starting this month. Until now I could not justify a catchment system due to the reliability and low price of water. But now that has all changed due to Bidenomics. Thank you for the great video! I will start mine today!
Great video. Search for Monjolin Filter... The best filter for capturing rainwater. I bought mine at the Rain Brothers store
Well done! Nice setup!
Woe Awesome video!!! Great instructions and to the point. Love it!!!
Very helpful and informative!! Thank you!
adequately and tremendously! Promising desires 👌👍
Brilliant explanation
You are amazing - thanks so much for uploading this video!
Nicely done and explained. Very motivating.
This was great! I have it saved for future use!
Nice job, I made a rain water system but its not fancy. It does work though. I need to get a bug screen of sorts. Keep having to back flush it. Rain water did help me create some nice cannabis plants. Very smooth smoke. Friends are raving about it and all AI used was rain water off the greenhouse roof.
