RE: Rainfall
If you have a 55 gallon tank in your loft and the joist can take it just add one or more extra tanks to it. just connect em with a balance pipe.

RE: Rainfall
I'm installing several extra tanks in the loft. I spent a while looking at the best way to spread the load now waiting for some cash.

I've been trying to get in touch with a guy I know about his water storage system. He sent me a link with the system being installed on youtube.

That's for a small Earthship the guy is making. It's a lot of water storage in there!

The more the merrier. Water is the most important resource we can have and needs to be prioritised.
