Gutter strainers for catchment - Peter Epperson - 03-20-2010

I updated my website with info about the gutter strainers that I offer with my tanks http://pacificgunite.com/gutter_strainers.htm I also included a link to a drawing of how to build your own.

Since I added strainers and floating inlets to my tank at home my filters stay clean for a much longer time.

For those on a budget, a nylon knee high on the end of your drain pipe works too [Big Grin]

Thanks Peter and it was a nice touch to include the do it yourself guide. Very thoughtful that!

NO really! I don't, want to read your blog!

That filter that Peter posted looks good but won't be so useful if you have a large quantity of debris regularly flowing into your gutters. The Leafeater made in Australia works well though for that.

It's nice to see pricing for ferro-cement tanks! I'm considering two tanks @ 10,000 gallons for our new house.

I saw a cement tank being built in Volcano two weeks ago and it looked substantial. Made me think twice about getting a cement tank too. Good luck.

NO, really? Assume the best!
