If I'm interpreting the photos correctly, you are removing debris with window screen on the top of the barrels... is that correct?

What are you going to use the captured water for?

Do you have or need any other filtration or purification?

I have some barrels similar to the ones you are using, left over from my Ground Loop project. The filtration was hanging me up, but a window screen filter is probably all I need. Thanks for the idea.

It rains so much here during the winter time, I've also thought about re-directing the rainwater into my loop field, since it is carrying heat energy with it.

Regards,
