School me on Water tanks and water storage?
This is awesome, but exactly my point. Zero chance this system makes purely economic sense. Especially if someone was going to add something like this to an existing home. Really cool though. -

our system is fucking stupid, don't even worry about that. she did it so she could get green luxury home builds, the thing was a fucking boondoggle but if we count marketing for her business it will probably turn worth it/profitable in a few years. the real gold standard imo for rainwater harvesting is to collect and store enough for your use, that's it. if you can avoid excessive piping all over the place for a nicer aesthetic that's good too. or xeriscaping I'd hone in the following numbers: * assuming no rain for 4 months, how much water do you need for your landscape? * how much rainwater collection will your roof generate in one year (there are calculators for gallon per inch (annualized) x surface area) * base that roof capacity on average rainfall minus 10 inches (that's what the last two years were) that will back you into a tank size. assume you need 500 gallons every two weeks for xeriscaping in the hot summer months. That's 4000 gallons over 4 months. I bet your roof will generate 20,000 gallons easy, so you will have excess so your overflow drainage will be a major factor. or you calibrate to one gutter / one side of the roof but make sure your math checks out. two ways to deal with overflow- use the water where you can (spring flowers might want water every other day, spring potted plants, etc.) - and then have an over flow plan.
