Rain Water

The average size Melbourne house collects 125,000 litres of rainwater water each year. With a rainwater storage tank you can have greater flexibility during water restrictions, save on water bills and add value to your property. By installing a rainwater tank you are helping to conserve water right now and doing your bit to help the environment.

TANKS

Plastic rainwater tanks (Polyethylene)

Plastic tanks are durable, lightweight , variety of styles and came in various colours. Polyethylene tanks are suitable for drinking water storage.

Fibreglass rainwater tanks

Fibreglass tanks can be submerged up to 50 percent below ground and are cheaper then most tanks.

Corrugated aquaplate metal rainwater tanks

Tanks made from aquaplate are the only steel tanks which comply with tough Australian standards regulating the storage of water fit for human consumption. Tanks are made with a polymer lining which is bonded to a long-life corrosion resistant steel base to help maintain water quality. Currently they are the most expensive tanks on the market. They came in galanvised or colourbond external surface.

Water bladder tanks

Bladder tanks are a fairly recent development. The water management system uses a flexible and puncture resistant polymembrane to store water for garden and internal uses. The benefit is in the flexibility of the bladder, which can be placed beneath a floor. The bladders are available in 2500 litre or 3500 litre and can be made to custom order. Bladders can be joined using standard irrigation fittings, allowing unlimited storage capacity and configuration.

Concrete rainwater tanks

Concrete tanks are suitable for below ground use and are mainly used for large volume water storage. Concrete tanks require cranes as weight can sometimes restrict access.

Fence modular rainwater tanks

Modular rainwater tanks can be installed as a self standing system or attached to a structure. Dimensions of modules are height 1800mm, Length 800mm Width 190mm and came in Caulfield green or Beige.

PUMPS

We supply and install a complete range of pumps for irrigation and internal house use. Connecting a pressure pump to your rainwater storage tank maximises the uses of your rainwater.

• Pressure pumps
• Sump pumps

DEVICES FOR RAINWATER COLLECTION

We supply and install a range of water diviters, designed to reduce the amount of leaf material and dirty water from entering your rainwater tank. This improves the tank water quality significantly, and extends the life of your pump.

Automatic mains to tank system

Incorporated into the design of new houses or retrofitted to existing properties, it controls the water supply for toilet, laundry or irrigation applications by automatically switching the water source from domestic mains to rainwater when a demand is sensed and rainwater is available in the storage tank, thereby saving up to 40% of a households mains pressure water supply. When a toilet is flushed the system detects this demand and automatically checks to see if there is sufficient water in the rainwater storage tank. If there is sufficient rainwater then it switches the supply to this source and completes the demand cycle. Once the demand cycle is complete the controller automatically switches of. If the rainwater supply is depleted at any time during a demand cycle or before a demand cycle, the controller provides mains water to fulfil the demand. In the case of a power failure, it automatically supplies mains pressure water as the backup.
