    My IBC tote has same scenario as #3 presented here.
    Rather than rely on the few threads present or the hose clamp method,
    I opted for positive mechanical connections throughout:
    D200 Camlock (2" Female NPT) - polypropylene
    reducer bushing reducer 2 x 3/4" - nylon
    3/4" male adapter to garden hose adapter as used in the video - brass

    That 3rd tank is a device called a camlock. The tank typically has a male camlock and what you need to connect is a female camlock. They work extremely well and won’t leak even under pressure.

      If you figure it out please share. So I can sleep tonight.

      Conrad Homestead well we are actually going to put in a shallow well for now . We’ve been using just rainwater catchment but our 4 55 gallon barrels just isn’t cutting it for our family of six and our animals. When it rains our barrels overfill and just goes on the ground. Just need bigger containers. But winter is coming and all the rain water catchment systems will be useless for months!

    • @conradhomestead4518
      @conradhomestead4518  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Winter does make water collection more difficult. The ball valves have the issues with cracking in freezes. I’m thinking of placing a few IBCs in an insulated shed. Get what you can done before it’s too cold👍 We have few winter prep projects to get to.
