Rainwater Powered Home: 20+ Years in Tucson

Retired couple in Tucson, Arizona, has been powering their home and pool with rainwater for 20+ years. They installed a 26,000-gallon cistern, filtration, UV light, and reverse osmosis for safe drinking water. Their system delivers quality water, matching or beating local public supplies. They average 90 gallons per day, with peaks in summer due to pool evaporation. Maintenance costs around $900/year, with the initial system costing $35,000 in 2003. They share their story and host tours to help others go independent amidst Arizonas water woes.
