Don't just install a water tank... install a complete Rain Harvesting system. 

If you are considering purchasing a rainwater tank, we recommend installing a complete system to improve your water quality, and help reduce water tank maintenance.
Planning and designing an efficient system, will not only give you good quality water, but will reduce your reliance on mains water. Rain water that is captured and stored correctly is a safe, economical and sustainable source of quality water, to supply your complete requirements.

At NCPW we have a large range of tank accessories to do just that! 


Tank AccessoriesWhat to do when Planning/Installing a rain water harvesting system:

1. Check ROOF SURFACE is suitable for collecting quality rainwater. 

2. Install GUTTER MESH (such as Blue Mountain Mesh®) to prevent leaves and debris from blocking gutters. 

3. Fit GUTTER OUTLETS from the underside of the gutter to prevent obstruction of water flow. 

4. Fit Leaf Eater® RAIN HEADS to downpipes to prevent blocking. Rain heads deflect leaves and debris &
keep mosquitoes out of pipes that hold water (“wet” systems). 

5. Install WATER DIVERTERS to prevent the first flush of most contaminated rainwater from entering the tank. 

6. Ensure the TANK SCREEN is installed at tank entry point to filter water and keep mosquitoes and pests out. 

7. Choose a WATER TANK. Consider annual rainfall, roof catchment area and water usage when determining its size. 

8. Attach INSECT PROOF SCREENS or FLAP VALVES to the end of all pipes to the tank (for ‘wet’ systems) and to TANK OVERFLOW OUTLETS to keep mosquitoes and pests out and ensure tank is vented properly. 

9. Utilise a TANK TOP UP or RAINBANK system (if required) to automatically supply mains water when water levels fall to a designated minimum level. 

10. Select a PUMP SYSTEM (if required) to distribute water for use inside or outside the home.


11. RAINWATER FILTER. Fit a purpose designed rainwater filter after the pump to help reduce residual sediment, taste, odour and bacteria.

12. WATER LEVEL MONITOR. Install a level indicator to help monitor your water usage. Wireless systems are most convenient and display a reading inside the home.
