1- Roof
2- Gutter mesh
3- Gutter Outlet
4- Leaf Catcher
5- First Flush Diverter
6- Screen
7- Storage container
8- Insect proof screen
9- Sensor to top up with water mains water when low
10- Pump
11- Additional Filter
12- Water Level Monitor
During the months of a dry season sediment with high concentrations of pollutants will accumulate on the roof and flow into the harvested rainwater. To avoid contaminating the stored water we recommend using a first flow diverter system to remove particulates and contaminants. The diverter can be simple or complex depending on the requirements and applicable health and/or environmental regulations.
