Fitting the supply pipe and overflow pipes

?Place a 3 ½ “ (9 cm) PVC pipe that runs from the water filter to the rainwater gutter system of the
building.
?Fabricate and fix 3 ½ “ (9 cm) PVC pipes to connect with the gutters of the building as illustrated. The
flush pipe must be fitted with a stopper that can be removed and re-fixed. This permits the initial run-
off water from the roof to be diverted away from the tank. After the first flush of run-off water, the
stopper is replaced at the end of the down pipe.
