Fully Integrated Water Storage System
Product Information
This product is a fully integrated solution for harvesting and
utilizing rainwater for domestic water supply. It includes a tank,
base, gutters and pipes, pre-filtration system, mozzie screen,
elbows and pipes, float valve kit, pump, pump-to-tank connector
kit, pump cover, and whole-house filter. For an automated system,
additional components such as gate valves and non-return valves are
required. The filtration system removes sediment, particulates,
viruses, bacteria, and any other potentially harmful materials
present in the water. The product comes in two sizes – medium-scale
and large-scale – with different cost estimates.
Product Usage Instructions
To use this product:
- Install the tank on a concrete slab.
- Install gutters and pipes to collect rainwater and divert it to
the tank. - Install pre-filtration system to filter the rainwater before it
goes into the tank. This will keep debris and leaves out of the
tank, improve the quality of water stored, protect the pump and
reduce maintenance. - Install a mozzie screen to prevent mosquitoes from breeding in
the tank. - Install elbows and pipes to direct the water flow.
- Install a float valve kit to regulate the water level in the
tank. - Install a pump to pump the harvested rainwater back into your
house for domestic use. - Install a pump-to-tank connector kit to connect the pump to the
tank. - Install a pump cover to protect the pump from weather
elements. - Install a whole-house filter to ensure the water is safe for
consumption by removing sediment, particulates, viruses, bacteria,
and any other potentially harmful materials. - For an automated system, install gate valves to isolate
components and better manage the system, and non-return valves to
ensure no back pressure to the main supply.
Note that each installation will vary based on the setup and
personal preference. For detailed installation guidelines, visit

It is very important to filter harvested rainwater
Filters the rainwater before it goes into your tank: Keeps debris and leaves out of your tank. Improves the quality of water stored. Protects the pump and reduces maintenance.
Pre-filtration
Filtration
Filters the rainwater before it is pumped back into your house, and ensures it is safe for consumption. The chosen filtration system needs to remove:
Sediment, particulates, viruses and bacteria. Any other potentially harmful materials that could be present in the water.
