[QUOTE="tynyphil, post: 4197459, member: 44419"] This is my rain collection system at my off grid cabin. The water is used for everything but consumption. We have a metal roof but it would work for asphalt shingles. You just may need to clean out the chat that will collect at the bottom of the barrel occasionally. You may not need to for your use but I transfer the water to a second tank that has a 12v pump for pressurized use feeding faucets etc. there is a filter on my transfer hose. Once full the overflow from the second barrel dumps into a buried pipe and takes the water safely away from the cabin I have 3 of these that will collect a total of around 300 gallons. a 1/2” rain will fill them [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_4179.jpeg"]444412[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
