Absolutely not, I clean the barrels out every 3-4 years, and the water is crystal clear. The sand and grit all falls to the bottom of the barrel, and because the tap outlet is 6" above this, it never draws any of the sediment out. Just to make sure, I have a garden water filter in the output hose which I rinse out from time to time, but it doesn't really get dirty.

Are commercial car wash machines permitted to operate? They don't generally use hoses.......... although personally I wouldn't take any car of mine anywhere near one of those machines with the rotating brush systems. You will have to come to Scotland for a weekend break and wash the car at the same time, no shortage of water up here 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

now then children you might learn something have you ever seen the man with the big long pole cleaning windows....... he only uses filtered water the windows are not wiped afterwards...because the water is filtered there are no streaks .... tap water has a lot of impuritys etc...which leave streaks unlike pure rainwater... we use a rainwater tank to feed a pressure washer in a similer way due to low water pressure.... rainwater is free we can easily wash a large tractor or digger on a small amount of free water and tea tastes very nice |

ALL water belongs to the water companies and even if you collect it in the above way using a hosepipe is banned! I think 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

OK stand corrected! Isn't it stupid that if I have a bath I can't then use a hose from the bath to water the garden! 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
