So how much water do you think you could carry on your trailer/bike set-up.

Yes of course you can but be careful you dont drop the jug of water otherwise you will have to walk all the way back home to fill it back up .

Will you be using a sweeping brush to scrub glass  ;D ;D ;D ;D . Mike

I had a customer ask me that once some people actually think that Brita filters purify water.
Andrew get yourself a tds meter its around £17 make sure you buy one from a trusted dealer like Gardiners.
Measure the tds level of your water anything under 80 and you could get away with a D.I. system.
You could put one together for around £300 plus the price of a pole.
Yes you could use rain water if you can collect enough of it.
There are plenty of utube videos that will show you all you need to know about wfp and how to use it.
