Catchment tanks
#9
I made our tanks integral to the homes and used the Castleblock ICF material. You cannot steal the tanks, or even see them. The water is in contact with cementitious waterproofing and gets alkalinity to offset the acidity of rainwater. The water in the tank stays cool and is highly drinkable (after the filtration and purification steps). The tanks also do double duty and support and enclose the house.
