Installation Configuration & Fill Options
• Top Fill – Simplest DIY option. Connect directly to a downpipe for easy rainwater harvesting. No plumber typically required.
• Bottom Fill – Best for permanent or concealed installations (e.g., under-house systems). Provides clean plumbing layout with hidden pipework. Professional installation recommended.
• Side Fill – Ideal for retrofit installations or tight access areas where plumbing runs need flexibility. Requires diverter, 50mm hose, and non-return valve. Licensed plumber required in most states.
👉 If you are unsure, Top Fill is the easiest and most common option for residential installations.
⚠️ In most Australian states, modifying downpipes requires a licensed plumber by law.
Installation & Site Requirements
• Top Fill – DIY-friendly. Most homeowners can install this themselves.
• Bottom Fill or Side Fill – Professional installation recommended.
• Folded and rolled for transport
• Carried through narrow access points (doors, side passages, under-house entries)
• Unfolded and positioned on-site before filling
Once filled with water, it expands to its full size.
Important requirements:
• Ensure the folded tank can physically fit through access points
• Confirm there is enough flat space for final placement
• The surface must be clean and free from sharp objects
👉 If access is very limited, we can recommend a custom bladder design to suit your site.
• Surface must be flat and level
• Free from sharp rocks, debris, or protruding objects
• Suitable bases include concrete slabs or compacted soil
• Maximum recommended slope: 250mm over 10 metres (25mm per 1 metre)
• For steeper slopes, a retaining wall or level platform is recommended
• Custom tie-down or webbing systems are available for challenging sites
Usage & Applications
• Under houses (sub-floor rainwater storage)
• Under decks or patios
• Garages and sheds
• Narrow side passages
• Low-clearance or unused spaces
• Off-grid water storage systems
• Rural and farm water storage
• Commercial rainwater collection
• Potable Grade – Drinking, cooking, showering, and all household uses
• Non-Potable Grade – Garden irrigation, washing cars, livestock watering, toilet flushing, and general outdoor use
