RAIN HARVESTING TATO48 Flanged Tank Overflow Kit
PRODUCT DETAILS
An all inclusive overflow solution for your tank to keep out pests and increase your tank’s capacity. The high level bend on the inside of this overflow raises the overflow level of your tank, which instantly increases the volume of water you can store. It’s the quickest way to boost your storage capacity. The mosquito-proof screen allows for easy maintenance. Mosquitoproof screens can become blocked over time, which will restrict your overflow’s performance. The removable cartridge allows this screen to be removed within seconds, and then washed or brushed clean to keep your system flowing at its best.

- Tank Overflow High
- Removable Screen Mazzie Stoppa
- Rubber Gasket
- 6 Stainless Steel screws
TOOLS/MATERIALS YOU MAY REQUIRE
- Marker pen
- Holesaw
- Drill
- Screwdriver
- SealantSolvent Weld glue
INSTALLATION
- If you do not have an existing tank overflow hole in your tank, use your tank overflow outlet as a template to mark the size of the hole you need to cut in the side of your tank, then cut using a hole saw. Position the hole so that when you install your tank overflow outlet, the top of the outlet will sit lower than the bottom of the tank inlet and/or tank inlet screen.
- Ensure that the gasket is fitted firmly around the tank overflow fitting, then push it in place inside the tank overflow hole, oriented so that the bend faces up.
- If you have an existing tank overflow hole and doing this means the open end of the bend will sit above the level of the tank inlet and/or tank inlet screen, orient the bend diagonally or trim the top of the overflow first.
- Hold the overflow outlet as you screw it in place, applying equal force to each screw. We recommend alternating between each screw, screwing on opposite sides, and avoiding fully tightening the screws until the end. Be sure not to overtighten the gasket.
- Select an installation point for your Removable Screen Mazzie Stoppa. As it will require regular maintenance, we recommend installing in a position that allows for easy access and cleaning. In most cases, the best position will be directly into the overflow outlet of your tank with the handle pointing upwards. Also ensure that the installation position allows the handle to be removed fully.
- Prior to gluing, remove the screen from your Mazzie Stoppa, so that there is no chance of glue getting on the mesh.
- Use solvent weld glue to install the Removable Screen Mazzie Stoppa, between your overflow outlet and overflow pipe.
- Once the solvent weld glue has dried, re-install your mesh cartridge into the Removable Screen Mazzie Stoppa body to secure your system and prevent pests from entering your tank.

Maintenance
Your Removable Screen Mazzie Stoppa is designed to make maintenance and cleaning easy. Remove the mesh cartridge by pulling the handle directly out of the body. Replace the mesh cartridge immediately after cleaning by firmly inserting it back into the corresponding slot in the body so it continues to form a barrier against mosquitoes, frogs and pests. Periodically inspect the mesh cartridge a-ring to ensure that the system seal is still performing optimally.
