Product Information

Full details

This 400L flat rainwater tank is designed for homeowners looking to efficiently collect and store rainwater while maximizing outdoor space. Its key benefit is a slimline, wall-mounted design that saves space and features a decorative stone-effect front. A potential caveat is the need for a stable, flat surface for installation and ensuring connection to a suitable downpipe.

FAQs

What are the exact dimensions of the tank?

The tank has a depth of 300mm. Height and width dimensions are optimized for wall mounting and a 400L capacity.

Does the tank come with a tap?

No, the tank does not include a tap or hose. These can be purchased separately and fitted to the two threaded outlets.

What material is the tank made from?

The tank is constructed from strong, UV-stable material designed for durability and weather resistance.

How do I connect it to my downpipe?

A downpipe adapter and fittings are included. You will cut into your existing downpipe and insert the adapter to divert water into the tank.

Can I paint the tank?

While the tank is made from durable material, painting is not recommended as it may affect the UV stability or decorative finish. It is available in Anthracite or Grey options.

What is the warranty period?

Information regarding the warranty period should be checked with the retailer at the time of purchase.

Is the stone-effect front panel removable?

The stone-effect panel is integrated into the design for aesthetic purposes and is not designed to be removed.

Troubleshooting

Tank is not filling with water

Check that the downpipe adapter is correctly fitted and aligned with the tank inlet. Ensure there are no blockages in the downpipe or the adapter.

Water is leaking from the tank

Inspect the tank for any visible cracks or damage. Ensure any installed fittings (tap, coupling) are securely tightened and sealed.

Difficulty installing a tap

Ensure you are using the correct size fitting for the threaded outlet. Use PTFE tape on the threads for a better seal if needed.

Tank appears unstable

Confirm the tank is positioned on a perfectly level and solid base. Ensure wall fixings are secure and appropriate for your wall type.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify a suitable, level, and stable wall surface for mounting.
  2. Connect the provided downpipe adapter to your existing downpipe, ensuring it's positioned to direct water flow into the tank.
  3. Position the tank against the wall, ensuring it sits on a firm, level base.
  4. Secure the tank to the wall using appropriate fixings (not included, as wall types vary).
  5. Install a tap or quick-release coupling to one of the threaded outlets, using appropriate sealant if necessary.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with standard round and square downpipes using the included adapter.
  • Threaded outlets are standard sizes for common tap and coupling fittings.

Care:

  • Clean the exterior of the tank periodically with a mild detergent and water using a soft cloth.
  • Ensure the inlet filter is clear of debris to maintain optimal water flow.
  • In winter, if temperatures are expected to drop below freezing, it is advisable to empty the tank to prevent damage from ice expansion.
