JoJo 110mm Harvesting Rainhead Instructions
HOW IT WORKS
IDEAL ORIENTATION
The 180 degree pivot head allows for installation at any angle to ensure an effortless connection from the rainhead to the pipe feeding rainwater into the tank.
IDEAL LOCATION
Rainheads should be installed underneath each downpipe that supplies rainwater to a tank.
ADDITIONAL COMPONENTS REQUIRED FOR INSTALLATION
- Standard plumbing pipes in 110mm, 80mm or 75mm (quantity and lengths will depend on installation)
- Pipe holder bat of the correct size for your pipe and anchor screws for the rainhead
- PVC weld glue
- A drill and tools to mount the rainhead to the wall
INSTALLATION
01
Remove the adapter supplied loose inside the rainhead and fit the plastic
screen onto the rainhead body.
02
Determine the correct height for the rainhead (1).
Note : it should be at a sufficient height for the water to flow into the tank while allowing for at least a 40mm to 80mm gap from the bottom of your gutter downpipe (A) to the screen of the rainhead. This gap ensures easy access for cleaning and removal of the screen when required, and prevents debris build-up inside the downpipe.
03
Remove your existing gutter downpipe below the height determined as part of
step one, and mount the rainhead (1) to the wall using anchor screws.
04
Cut the desired length of pipe to feed water into the tank from the bottom of
the rainhead (B).
05
If you are using a 80mm or 75mm plumbing pipe you will need to fit the
supplied adapter (2) to the bottom of the rainhead (1). To ensure it is
properly fitted, push the adapter as far as possible into the rainhead until
there is resistance when trying to pull it out again.
Note : the smaller end should be facing down.
06
If you are using a 110mm pipe you will not need the adapter.
07
For a secure fit, it is advised to use sand paper on all interconnecting
sections before applying glue. Once you are satisfied with the test-fitted
position and setup, ensure all components are clean and glue in place with PVC
weld glue.
Important : All components are to be test-fitted before being glued with PVC weld glue. For a secure fit, it is advised to use sand paper on all interconnecting sections before applying glue.
