When we had a summer home it had an outside cistern. This was an old farmhouse and whoever lived there eons ago used the water off the slate roof... In St. Thomas we put on rubberised roofs and caught the water in a four inch downspout that went into a cistern.. There were two cisterns. One for drinking...water off the roof...and one for watering plants... water caught from the driveway and called the grey cistern. There is usually a switch on the downspout one can throw after it starts raining so that the first downpour cleans the roof.. We sanitized our own water with Clorox.. The water was measured throw and opening in the cement lid where a line could be dropped.. The sanitation department put goldfish in the cisterns to control mosquitoes.. UGH.. Only drawback.
