Water tanks ready to catch the autumn rains

Any time of year is a good time to install a rainwater tank, but why not install one when you are most likely to fill it with water? Autumn and Winter rain will fill your tank in no time and put you in good shape for Summer.
Dedicated connection to toilets will save thousands of litres. Lets say for an family of 4, average usage of toilet at home might be around 3 times per person per day. That equates to around 12 flushes per day.
Based on 7 litres per flush, we would expect water usage around 84 litres per day or 30,000 litres per year.
"Every flush from Heaven".....
