I'm not going to clean the coarse (typo) filter since it's going to be dirt free due to the first-pass system in place before the rainwater ever reaches it. You need to PM me your WhatsApp then I can send you photos and discuss more if you want a DIY kind of rainwater catchment.

PM-ed.

yeah i'm thinking underground tank works better in the long run and cement is a good thought. i see tht HDPE tank is more common. at the same time, i'm curious about leeching issues? do you treat the cement tank in case near by pollution? plastic tank also i think long term will eventually leech.

My house is equipped with a SPAH tank, which is a requirement by the local council. My question is, can we remove the SPAH tank if we do not want it?

If you don't want it, PM me. I'm looking at getting one. My plants prefer rain water than council water.

the roof space is so Valuable to collect sunlight and turn into Electricity ( which is much more valuble )
You install rain collector.

Sorry, but what does a rain harvesting system have to do with losing out on solar?
