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.

How can we help you?

Maintenance

For best performance, check and empty your Leaf Eater Slimline rain head on a regular basis to remove

captured leaves and debris. When the red overflow indicator is visible, this is a warning signal to let you know

that leaf and debris removal is required.

Remove the filter by pulling it out from the rear body. This may require a little force as the rubber gasket

creates a tight seal.

Empty the filter body, removing any captured leaves and debris. Then hose or brush out the filter body to

remove finer debris.

The frequency at which maintenance is required will depend on the environment in which your Leaf Eater

Slimline rain head is installed. For example, if you install your Leaf Eater Slimline in a high leaf area,

maintenance will be required more regularly.
