Bottomless Rainwater Tank Attachment (Free Postage within Australia) | measuredirrigation
Published on by Bernie Omodei, Owner at Measured Irrigation for Measured Irrigation
Many gardeners would like to use their rainwater tank to irrigate their garden. If the irrigation system has an irrigation controller, then a problem arises when the rainwater tank runs out of water. If you are on holidays at the time the consequences for your garden could be disastrous.
The ideal solution to this is to install the Bottomless Rainwater Tank Attachment so that your rainwater tank never runs out of water. There are other part fill valves available but these require a plumber to install the valve inside your rainwater tank. The Bottomless Rainwater Tank Attachment is completely external to the tank and easy for anyone to install.
A hose from a mains water tap is connected to the Bottomless Rainwater Tank Attachment. A valve inside the attachment opens and closes automatically to allow mains water to enter the tank. Whenever the tank is almost empty, a valve opens automatically and the tank will be part filled with mains water. The water level in the tank will be raised by only 28mm before the valve closes automatically, and so there is always plenty of room left for rainwater.
