I am planning a 125g fresh water tank, and debating the merit of setting up a constant drip system. My water company use chlorine.
My random thoughts:
My random thoughts:
- Dripping at 1 gal per hour, that's 24 gal per day, 5 days 120g.
- I would be wasting or using 120g x 6 = 720g of water every month? A normal shower takes 18g. that is like taking an extra shower? I can put a timer, so I could cut it down to say half or even less.
- However, the second new water enters tank, wouldn't part of it leaves with the drain? So after say a month, wouldn't some 'old' water remains?
- Chlorine normally takes a day to gas out? in my case, at 24g per day, would a chlorine filter be essential? I have no problem in installing one.
- Any known cons on constant drip? Is it a waste of time and water?
