1. Check
ROOF
SURFACE is suitable for collecting quality rainwater.
2. Install
GUTTER 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 down pipes to
stop gutters blocking. Rain heads deflect leaves and debris & keep
mosquitoes out of pipes that hold water.

WATER DIVERTER/S to prevent the first flush of
most contaminated rainwater from entering the tank.
6. Ensure the
TANK SCREEN is installed at tank entry point to
filter water and 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 (for ‘wet’ systems) and to TANK
OVERFLOW OUTLETS to keep mosquitoes and pests out and ensure tank is
vented properly.
9. Utilize a
TANK TOP UP system (if required) to
automatically top-up the tank with mains water when water levels
fall to a designated minimum level.
10. Select a
PUMP SYSTEM (if required) to distribute water
for use inside or outside the home.
