Home About Us Products Brands Gallery Virtual Tour Contact Us RAIN HARVESTING Harvesting rain is a practice that has been around for centuries. Cisterns and other rain harvesting systems are widely used in Europe, Australia, India, the Bahamas and countless remote countries - many who depend solely on rain for day to day life. When water supply becomes limited, practical solutions can fill the gap. Rainwater harvesting systems provide distributed stormwater runoff containment while simultaneously storing water which can be used for irrigation, flushing toilets, washing clothes, washing cars, pressure washing, or it can be purified for use as everyday drinking water. You can really take this as far as you want. Going green has become increasingly popular recently. Small steps can make a huge impact.

Check ROOF SURFACE is suitable for collecting quality rainwater. 2. Install GUTTER MESH (such as Blue Mountain Mesh®) to prevent leaves and debris from blocking gutters. 3. Fit GUTTER OUTLETS from the underside of the gutter to prevent obstruction of water flow. 4. Fit Leaf Eater® or Leaf Beater® RAIN HEADS to downpipes to prevent blocking. Rain heads deflect leaves and debris and keep mosquitoes out of pipes that hold water (‘wet’ systems). 5. Install FIRST FLUSH DIVERTER/S to help prevent the most contaminated rainwater from entering the tank. 6. Ensure a TANK SCREEN is installed at tank entry point to keep mosquitoes and pests out. 7. Choose a WATER TANK. Consider annual rainfall, roof catchment area and water usage when determining its size. 8. Attach INSECT PROOF SCREENS or FLAP VALVES to the end of all pipes to the tank screen to keep mosquitoes and pests out and ensure the tank is vented properly. Install an AIR GAP to TANK OVERFLOW OUTLETS to prevent stormwater backflow into your tank. 9. Utilize a TANK TOP UP system (if required) to automatically top up the tank with mains water when levels fall to a designated minimum level. 10. Select a PUMP SYSTEM (if required) to distribute water for use inside or outside the home. 11. RAINWATER FILTER. Fit a purpose designed rainwater filter after the pump to help reduce residual sediment, color and odor. 12. WATER LEVEL INDICATOR. Install a Tank Gauge water level indicator to your rainwater tank to monitor your water level and usage.
