Rainwater Harvesting System for Potable Use

Designed and Installed by

Candlelight Ranch

• Located at 6408 Muleshoe Bend Trail, Marble Falls

• Outdoor environment for special needs and at-risk children to learn, play, and heal through the wonders of nature

• Through active participation in outdoor activities and contact with nature, their campers build confidence, self-esteem and skills that support overcoming challenges in their daily lives

Rainwater Harvesting System Objectives

• Ranch management wanted to use rainwater to augment their well water supply system

• Main system is a 20,000 gallon cistern that collects from their 3,000 sf pavilion and pumps water to the existing well storage tank

• Two other structures collect rainwater into two 2,500 gallon cisterns to use for irrigation via hose bibs on the cisterns
