Rainwater harvesting is becoming more and more popular in South Africa and keeping the water that is stored in rainwater tanks clean and debris free, is vital if the water is going to be used for human consumption.
Even with a leaf catcher & first flush system installed, plant matter, waste & sediment can settle at the bottom of tank, which becomes a nest for breeding bacteria like E. coli, Gardia and Salmonella.
Some common contaminants found in rainwater tanks:
How the EcoDepot Tank Cleaner System works:
Without the EcoDepot Tank Cleaner system installed, every time your tank fills up with rain and overflows, fresh water from the top of the tank is discharged through the overflow and any contaminants that enter the tank, settle to the bottom.The EcoDepot Tank Cleaner System works by vacuuming up these settled contaminants and discharges them through the overflow without the need for power. Once the water level reaches the height of the overflow, our specially designed flow booster (patent pending) generates a 40mm diameter discharge with a flow rate of 4 litres per second (This is more than a 1.1kW pressure booster pump can produce). This powerful vacuum sucks up the sludge & contaminants, removing them from your tank.The vacuum is broken when the water level reaches a pre-set hole in the pipe, allowing the water level to rise again and begin another cleansing vacuum.
