Garden system AKTION with 4200 l flat tank
Rainwater harvesting system for the garden: “AKTION” garden system with a 4,200-liter rainwater tank Easy-to-install complete system for garden irrigation Our “AKTION” rainwater harvesting system is an all-inclusive package featuring a practical flat tank for easy installation underground. The high-quality rainwater tank is made of eco-friendly polyethylene (PE) and is 100% recyclable. The ready-to-connect complete set includes everything from the rainwater cistern to the submersible pressure pump—all the small and large components you need for rainwater harvesting in your garden. Collect precious rainwater in the underground rainwater tank during wetter times and use it for garden irrigation during drier periods. Do you have questions about the ideal tank size for your roof area and your individual usage? Feel free to use our rainwater planner. How does garden irrigation work with the "AKTION" garden system? Rainwater flows from the roof through the gutter grate (which acts as a pre-filter), then down the downspout and through the inlet surge arrester into the flat tank. The automatic submersible pressure pump located in the tank is connected to the water connection box via a hose that runs through a conduit. When the valve in the box is opened, the pump starts automatically. Closing the valve causes the submersible pressure pump to shut off on its own. You can install the water connection box wherever is convenient for you. When the cistern is full, the rainwater drains off via the overflow siphon. The barrier integrated here prevents small animals from entering. If there is a risk of frost, the pump must be disconnected from the power supply and the valve on the water connection box must remain open. You can find all further information under the DOWNLOADS tab and in the DOWNLOAD AREA.Who is the "AKTION" irrigation system suitable for? The complete set is suitable, on the one hand, for anyone who wants to keep the effort involved in installing their tank to a minimum. On the other hand, it is suitable for those who value the convenience of water withdrawal at a water connection box. Is the "AKTION" garden system drive-over? The flat tank is not drive-over in this form. However, upon request, all flat tanks can be retrofitted with our kit for car drive-over capability. The resulting wheel load is 600 kg per wheel—sufficient for standard cars and small vans. In this case, the cistern must have a soil cover of at least 60 centimeters. Where does the water from the overflow go when the tank is full? The excess rainwater can be discharged into the sewer system. However, this may incur fees. Additionally, the water does not return to the groundwater in a natural way when discharged this way. The most environmentally friendly option is (trough) infiltration through the soil surface. However, this is often not structurally feasible. With our infiltration elements, we offer a good way to allow overflowing water to infiltrate: Using infiltration cubes, infiltration blocks, or infiltration shafts, rainwater is guided through the soil back into the groundwater. Do I need a rainwater filter? This rainwater harvesting system generally does not require an additional rainwater filter. The gutter screen already provides sufficient coarse filtration. However, if you place particular importance on extra-clean water in your garden, you can install our fully biological Biovitor rainwater filter for flat tanks in all flat tanks. Installation and Maintenance Instructions for the 4,200-Liter Flat Tank Please follow the installation instructions (see also under “Downloads”): Before installing, connecting, and commissioning this product, read the instructions carefully and in their entirety, and observe all safety instructions. Failure to do so will void all warranty and guarantee claims. Additional features and notes Alternative equipment options are available for the tank; see “Accessories” below. The tank is UV-resistant and opaque. Possible connection sizes: DN 110 Our tank comes with 3 pre-installed DN 110 lip seals. Additional connection points are available and can be drilled and used as needed. The expansion dome is infinitely extendable from 380–580 mm and can be tilted up to 5° for optimal terrain adaptation. The tank has a 600 mm (access) opening. Do you have questions about this tank, its installation, or setup? Our customer service team is available to provide expert assistance. Please contact service@greenlife.de or our customer service at 0385 77 337 72 (weekdays 8 a.m.–4 p.m.). The entire system must be checked regularly for leaks, cleanliness, and stability. Maintenance of the entire system should be performed at intervals of approximately 5 years—every 10 years if a GreenLife Biovitor is used in accordance with the instructions. During this process, the system components must be cleaned and checked for proper function. Maintenance should be performed as follows:Empty the tank completelyRemove solid residues with a soft spatulaClean surfaces and internal components with waterCompletely remove dirt from the tankCheck that all internal components are securely fastened
