Better yet, why cant you make a rain collector that will fill your house water storage tank?

Also, why the houses dont have a water tank on the roof like any modern (1950+) house do in RL?

Never seen one in Canada, aside for large commercial buildings or large apartment complexes.

never seen a single water tank on any roof here in the states in the past 45 years

Kind of want one, though. Does suck if power is out for a few days and water pressure drops.

But then that hasn't happened since Hurricane Juan in 2003 or 4. Lost power for a week; some of the neighbors for two.

Thats basic procedure here in Brazil. All houses have a water tank on the roof to allow for long term water storage.

 

This avoid the problem of lack of water if power fails for more than a week.

 

Minimum water tanks in houses here in Brazil is 500 liters. Most houses normally have a 1000 liters tank on roof.
