Solar Shields and Tank Screen Covers

Solar shields and tank screen covers block sunlight from reaching your tank inlet, which slows the algae growth that sunlight encourages and helps protect your stored water. They fit under or over your tank screen, with options to suit common tank openings.

Step 6

Secure your rainwater system

Once water is in your tank, the job is to keep it clean. Sealing your system against pests, light and backflow protects the water you have worked to collect and stops new contaminants getting in.
