Rainwater Harvesting Projects Using Our Tanks
Nogales, AZ
This 800 gallon tank was installed at a school utilizing top entry and a 3 inch PVC overflow. This rainwater harvesting system uses a uniseal gasket to ensure a tight connection at both the overflow and the inflow.
Vail, AZ
This 1600 gallon rainwater harvesting tank is being fed by two 3 inch PVC downspouts and two 3 inch PVC overflows. It is important to match the overflow capacity to the inflow capacity when designing a rainwater harvesting system. This poly tank was placed on native soil after removing all rocks larger than 1/2"
Casas Adobes, AZ
This 800 gallon tank is a top feed using an overflow that empties into a long basin for the 3 citrus trees. This basin was designed using best practices with an armored overflow, wood chip mulch and native grasses and plants to help root into the soil and aid in infiltration. Over time this rainwater harvesting basin will function better because the soil will become more porous and act as a sponge, quickly infiltrating the water. The gutters and tank are degrenerative systems / components that degrade over time, whereas the basin and trees are regenerative and will actually function better over time. Here the two complement each other.
Central Tucson, AZ
This 800 gallon poly tank utilizes a top entry and a standard overflow. You can see the black rubber coupler on the overflow. This allows the rainwater harvesting tank to settle without damaging the inflexible PVC pipe.
This 150 gallon rainwater harvesting tank was installed along side an existing system. The tank allows for space savings with it's smaller footprint.
This 800 gallon poly tank was installed for a City of Tucson Rainwater Harvesting Rebate system, capturing rainwater from the scupper box and then overflowing it into an existing drainage swale.
This 800 gallon poly tank has two entries but only one overflow. The reason for this is that the roof space from the combined inflows is less than the maximum overflow capacity for one 3 inch overflow pipe. This area was being flooeded during rains and the addition of the tank helped the landlord with his water expenses for the swimming pool and to avoid property damage due to flooding.
This 1500 gallon poly tank is still available but we do not keep it in stock. It is slightly less expensive than the 1600 but lacks the UV protective external coating, for this reason we do not sell many and do not keep this model in stock. Typically, it can be obtained with a lead time of 3 weeks.
Central Tucson, AZ
This 800 gallon rainwater harvesting tank was installed on the back of the property and the client opted for an above grade overflow pipe because his property was sufficiently graded away from the house.
