Hi Daer Seff:

First off, I suggest you perform an accurate water analysis with a microbial approach to make sure about any undesirable issues. To use that water for potable uses, first, you should filter it through a 3 stage microfiltration:

1- Mesh filter to remove dust and trash,

2-  A,  5 Micron PP melt blown filter (in housing)

3-  A, 1  Micron PP melt blown filter (in housing)

4- Carbon filter of proper size (you can`t pass all the water from a single cartridge)

Then you can use a UV disinfection system to make sure everything is alright. Please bear in mind that:

1-If water stays still for a long time, it's not a good idea to use it all as potable water. after all the above processes, use a home RO system to drink that water.

2-In such big Volume of water you may find dead urban animals, try to inspect the water visually.

3-It would be better to use that water for irrigation of the garden or use it in the swimming pool after performing relevant tests.

Good luck with your great water reserve :)
