This video outlines the steps to installing a rain barrel or small rain water tank (known as ‘water butts’ in the UK and commonly called rain tanks or rain drums in South Africa). Although this project is small-scale, the procedure and principles are similar for larger scale rainwater harvesting systems that utilise large water tanks. In South Africa we recommend installing water tanks that are as large as possible (space permitting) as one should try to capture as much precious rainfall as possible.
Rainwater from rain water tanks can also be used for drinking water but it must be properly filtered/purified first. It is also important to ensure that your water tank is rated for storing potable water. We recommend South African-made water tanks from JoJo Tanks – one of South Africa’s premier polyethylene water tank manufacturers. JoJo water tanks are made from virgin, food grade material and have an inner lining that inhibits algae growth and keeps water in the tank fresher for longer.
