Residential Standpipe Downspout Filter Collector for Above or Below Grade Application- Roof Area up to 2,000 Sq. Ft

Product Function:
Connects to a single vertical rainwater downspout and can filter up to a 2000 square foot roof area for irrigation, car washing or other non-potable uses. Filter can be partially buried. The standpipe downspout filter collector is installed in the vertical rainwater downspout piping partly below grade to remove debris to the storm water system and divert 90% of the clean rainwater to an underground storage tank. The filter operates as a first flush device.

Rainwater Harvesting promotes “Green” in the following ways:

• It lessens demand on the municipal water supply.
• It makes efficient use of rainwater which would either evaporate or make its way to sewer lines.
• It diminishes flooding, erosion, and the flow to storm water drains.
• It reduces the contamination of surface water with sediments, fertilizers and pesticides from rainwater run-off resulting in cleaner lakes, rivers, oceans and other receivers of storm water.
• It can be used to recharge groundwater.
• It is good for irrigation and plants thrive because stored rainwater is free from pollutants as well as salts, minerals, and other natural and man-made contaminants.
• It is good for laundry use as rainwater is soft and lowers the need for detergents.
• It adds life to equipment dependent on water to operate, as rainwater does not produce corrosion or scale like hard water.
• Can be used as a potable water supply
• Ideal for developing  or disaster-impacted areas with limited water
• It can help achieve LEED® Green Building Credit under Water Use Reduction; Innovative Wastewater Technology; Stormwater Design: quality Control; Stormwater Design: quantity Control; Water Efficiency Landscaping;  and Innovation in Design.
• Promotes good public relations showing positive environmental concern
