RE: Off-Grid water management
We use a very similar method to yours for filtering. But I have thought in the future of buying a Berkey water filter to do a further filtration. We do have times when there may be contaminants settling on the roof. We have never had our water tested and it might be worth while to have it done.
I have an old pressure cooker and I played around with making distilled water from it. Worked well. So if push came to shove, I could distill water without much difficulty. Especially for drinking and cooking, which does not take much water. It could sit on the wood stove and distill all day long. Just need to keep the pot topped up once in a while so it does not boil dry.
