I have already installed the lines from the house out to where the tank is going to be. The lines are coming in lower than I originally anticipated so I either need to lower the 2500 gallon plastic tank or bring the line in at the bottom and let it fill to the top that way. I will initially fill...
I will be running 3 inch pvc from the roof to the tank. No pressure involved, just run-off. I'm just wondering if the water will back up in the pipe to the top of the gutter from where it's coming? Or will the tank just fill without worrying about the former?
Thanks!

By the same token, referencing the this thread, I am installing a fire suppression water storage tank. the inlet is going to come in a few feet from the top. When filling the tank, will the tank fill all the way up even if the inlet is not at the top? Do I need a check valve...
