First time user on your forum. I need advice please.
I'm building a house, family of four. I have a well that produces 4.5 gallons a minute. I plan to put a 1500-gal cistern in between the well and house so I have adequate water upon demand.
The question is: is one cistern "enough"?. Putting in two cisterns will add another $2000-$3000 more., which I'd rather spend on something else.
I know this is an assumed risk...so if the well runs dry, then I will have to fill the cistern twice as frequently iwth just one tank. I'm OK with that.
THANKS FOR ANY ADVICE.
