Gravity Filter for a Tiny House on a Lot
Tiny houses have tiny counters and real water needs.

Why this comes up
Tiny houses have tiny counters and real water needs. Pick the footprint that fits. The lot's well status is a separate question.
What to check on the map first
County GIS lines are assessment maps. They are not a survey, and a product will not redraw them.
Open Platbookmapper and choose the state. The directory sends you to the county viewer. Match the parcel ID before you trust a pin on an aerial photo.
A tool that matches the job
Shop the Countertop gravity filter when that is the job in front of you. Pick the footprint that fits. The lot's well status is a separate question.
The limit
Filter water you hauled from a known tap, or water a lab has already tested. A steel crock does not make creek water safe.
Walk the parcel in daylight before you trust a gadget at dusk.
Not a survey. County GIS and tax parcel maps are assessment and planning layers. They are not a substitute for a recorded plat, deed, or licensed survey.
