What sized tank do you need?
The key consideration when choosing what size tank you need is to estimate the volume of water you require. For example, Using Toowoomba rainfall records, a 10,000 litre rainwater tank internally connected to the toilet and washing machine could be expected to generally supply 20-30% of the average daily water needs for a typical household. Using a 22,000 litre tank would increase this figure to 30-40%.
