How The Smart Valve Works

REAL PEOPLE - NOT "BUY IT" BUTTONS - 888-826-0939


Diverting the first flush of rainwater is the most important factor

in achieving high quality catchment water.


 

How The Smart-Valve Works Normal Operation                 

 

During the first flush of rain, water flows down the down pipe. The deflector directs water over the valve ball. A small very small percentage of the water will enter the valve ball through its screened openings.
The valve ball acts will slowly fill with water and will eventually descend, due to the increasing weight of water in it, and close the valve. Rainwater then fills up the down pipe and flows to your water storage tank.

 




When the rain stops, water is retained in the down pipe until it slowly drains out of the drip hole; this delays the resetting of the valve which saves water during intermittent rains.
The spring resets the valve ball automatically when the water is drained.
