55 Gallon Simple Water Storage

Nawh, we keep the pests out by closing I-35 at the Red River, ROFLOL!

Actually the screen works pretty well, especially if you put some 1/4" mesh hardware cloth 6" above it to catch leaves first. I would like to replace it with a 255 gallon bulk container.

sir smithlabs! well that sounds good, will your new house have that system set up to catch rain water?

Not at first, but when I add the sheet metal second roof it will be added. The greenhouse will collect all the rainwater to feed the Aquaponics systems in it.

The second roof will help me reach a net zero house, by blocking solar on the first roof. I can collect what I want for winter use above the second roof.

:)

ok sir smithlabs but how does the greenhouse collect rainwater?

Gutters off the roof, into holding tanks! Then I can pump into the systems when they get low.

This greenhouse will be half buried (A Walipinni greenhouse) with the North side earth bermed to save heat in winter.

Should be fun, LOL!

:)

sir smithlabs..big talk but I don't see anything happening, when do you start doing something and then posting about it so we know you ain't just talk! lol.

Never, I am just teasing you!

Debbie takes precedence, so I am slow.

This guy in Texas is supposed to come up here and help, BUT...ROFLOL!

:)

haha! man I'd love to be able to, I need an income source coming in automatically so I can take off and have fun but unfortunately I have no retirement plan. I did get Mrs. J working but now she has the nerve to think that I should too!

I was just kidding, I have lots of help up here; time and cash are the problems on this move! Debbie is ready to move, but she is slowing me on the other end....

Part of my retirement plan is the RV parking spots rental on the south end of the property. That combined with no bills, and food on site, should do the job!

But I need to finish first! Then you can come up and visit, and we can go fishing in Keystone lake.
