How It Works

  • A rainwater tank is installed alongside your house, in your garden, underground or under decking.
  • Rain falls from the sky.
  • The rainwater flows from the roof into the guttering, and then into a downpipe.
  • Depending on the size of the tank, one or multiple downpipes are diverted to the rainwater tank.
  • The water pours into the top of the tank through a mesh filter screen.
  • When the tank is full the overflow feeds back into the existing stormwater system.
  • The water is stored until needed.
  • Water can be gravity fed from your tank onto the garden.
  • Alternatively a pressure pump can be used to pump pressurised water to garden taps or into the house for toilet flushing and laundry use.
