37 degrees - 9:14 am - foggy...
All the trenching for our gravity fed water system is finally done, now onto the cold-water storage tank.
We are using a used food grade IBC Tote (which has been cleaned out several times) that we got off of Craigslist.
Tony has placed the water tank at the end of the trench and plumbed it with an intake line, vent pipe, and a p-trap.
The tank is surrounded on all sides with plywood to keep the dirt from crushing the tank. All water lines and tank will be completely buried; the only thing you will see will be the top two feet of the vent pipe, which will be spray-painted brown.
The only thing left to do is lay out the intake line, which will be above ground, to the water source.
To be continued…
