thanks for the advice guys. We are going to look into getting a system for drinking and then workout how to use it for the tank as well. BUt thats been put off until the house is built and we have decided what type of chilled/heated drinking tap we are going to have and where (kitchen or butlers pantry).
Ive been doing some research but cant seem to get my head around it so need to ask questions and get advice.
So previously ive just used a stockman pipe as my drain in a weir with a return on the back on the opposite end of the tank.
However im not sure that its the right way to go and i would prefer to have two returns and drains in the weir this time.
ANyway the question is what type of plumbing have you used for your tank and why did you go that way??

Re: fairy's jump into the big leagues
Im getting more and more frustrated by the day.
Our land was meant to title in March but didn't title until May.
Meant to be on site by June, didn't happen got to site mid July.
We were supposed to have a slab done by August 1, its now mid august and we haven't gotten anything.
the tanks hasn't progress beyond an idea because I don't have anywhere to put it.
At this stage i wont even get into my house by this time next year

Re: fairy's jump into the big leagues
LOL just came back for a quick check-in and the progress hasn't been good.
Go the house in July 2018 and since then have done nothing for the tank plans.
By the time we got the house Cherub was scheduled for my maintenance surgery on her heart.
We literally got the keys one day and has surgery the very next day
Now after nearly 2 years of constant reviews and checkups and 9 surgeries later I'm back at square one planning the tank again.
On a positive note, I'm still here and still planning the tank.
