From Soggy Yard To Gravity Irrigation
{managing obstacles} "Our yard was soggy and drainage poor. After fixing our sewer pipe, we found incentives to make more improvements and have rain water for plants. First, we had to get around the electric and chimney."
{backyard perspective} " We tried rain barrels to keep water out of the basement--they didn't work out too well."
{water in, water out} " Because the electrical service dictated the path of the of the redirected rain water, the fill pipe came in low. Works great and can't wait to water the plants with gravity pressure."
{new drainage path} " After fixing the sewer pipe, we redirected the water to drain into one downspout, instead of two. So far so good."
{new vs. old} "We have confidence in our Rain Wise system. Both for drainage and storage. Simply open the valve in winter and close it in the summer. Simple. Our new system saves us a lot."
{phase two} "In the spring we plan to use the stored rain water here, in the garden (near the no longer soggy ground.) Our plan includes pumping water to more storage tanks and water the plants through gravity fed irrigation."
"Came out just like you said it would."
{what your neighbors see} " My Mom's a gardener, my Dad's a worrier and I make the decisions. A Long term solution is my goal."
{best place location} 1st problem solved--got it to work within RainWise rules ( 3 ft between property boundary and tank edge ) Why the two rain tanks are not closer together ( front to back )
{why these tanks are here} At first, I wasn't sure where the cisterns should go, here or the other side. Both spots have side sewer connections. We chose this side for appearance and closeness the gardens.
{rain wise spec. no blocking windows} "From inside the house we can't see the tanks."
{control} 3rd. Make a system that easily can accommodate a regular garden hose or sewer connection
