  4. If installing your Vent Cowl with a flanged fitting, place silicone on the underside of the flange, press it down onto the tank over your cut hole, and screw the flange to the tank surface.
  5. Install your Vent Cowl by placing it over the male pipe or flanged fitting and glue it in place using solvent weld glue.

A common misconception about collecting rainwater is that all you need is a roof, a tank and some rain. This ‘tanking’ approach cannot always be relied on to deliver the volume – or quality – of water that you require. That is where we can help.
With some thought, your rain harvesting system can provide you with cleaner water and lots of it. Whether you’re completely reliant on tank water or wanting to keep the garden green, our simple steps will help you achieve your goal.
The Rain Harvesting approach to rainwater collection involves using tested and proven products to make quality rainwater available for use in and around your property. You don’t need much to get started and you will be surprised how easy it is to get the most out of your rainwater system.
