My latest invention allows you to transfer stormwater from roadside gutters into your rainwater tank. The kit can be purchased online from the Measured Irrigation Shop:
https://www.measuredirrigation.com/.../diy-kerbside...
Key features:
1. The pump has maximum head of 5 metres.
2. The pump has a flow rate of 700 litres per hour at zero head.
3. The cup is made from heavy duty polycarbonate and so it’s unbreakable.
4. The cup has a large overflow area to prevent water backing up inside the stormwater pipe.
5. The cup makes a secure pressure fit against the inside of a 90mm stormwater pipe.
6. If the tank is not full, the pump starts automatically when it starts raining. The pump stops automatically when it stops raining or the tank is full.
7. By detaining some of the stormwater when it rains, less pressure is placed upon the stormwater infrastructure provided by councils in residential areas.
8. The water in the tank can be used for automatic drip irrigation by using the DIY Kerbside Stormwater Recycling Kit to make a Measured Irrigation Controller.
More information and the User Manual are available from the Measured Irrgation website:
