[QUOTE="Fat Boss, post: 16694825, member: 122645"] There are a lot of reasons we use large storage tanks out here. First, some times of the year/drought my well produces less than 4 gallons per minute and there are two houses on my property. I haven't actually measured it, but it currently produces about 10% of the water it did in April. It does that seasonally, but we're in the middle of a bad drought right now. Second, there are times I get the 1.5" fire hose or one of my golf course 1" hoses out and water for an hour. I'll go through a LOT of water a couple times a summer to drench the landscaping. Third, we do in fact have power outages occasionally. Fourth, I'm in a high fire danger area and a volunteer firefighter. It's nice to be able to fill the engines at my house- although the next door neighbor has three 5k gallon tanks with hydrants in their front yard as well. [/QUOTE]
