Note - Electricity is unreliable during a bushfire crisis.

Tank Pump System

Your water tank pump  is a ready source of water, but is unrealiable in a Bushfire as the electricity system may fail.

A DA Rainmaker attached to your tank pump and hung off your gutter will produce a water barrier between your home and the fire front.

Connecting a Hosed DA Rainmaker to a tank Pump

 Setting up this system is similar to setting up a garden sprinkler. 

  • connect the hose to the outlet tap
  • connect the hose to the sprinkler
  • position the sprinkler
  • turn it on

Steps explained

Connect the hose to the tap.

The method of connecting to the tap depends on the number of DA Rainmaker you have. Ideally you need a valve controlling the flow of water to the sprinkler. 

  • One DA - connect the hose directly to the tap 
  • Two DA's - add a 2 way splitter to connect the hose 
  • Three or four DA's - add a 4 way splitter to connect your hoses.

Please ensure you order the correct size for your tap. ie NSW standard is 1" BSP, VIC standard is 3/4"BSP

Connect the hose to the sprinkler

We have a variety of connectors to attach your hose to your Rainmaker.

  • Brass quick connect.
  • Hoselink 
  • or none (you use your own) 

Please select the fitting that suits your hose, 

Position the sprinkler

The Rainmaker was originally designed to simply hang off your gutter, we generally place them evey 6 metres. 

If you have gutter mesh then a 50mm slit is required to fit the sprinkler, we generally cut this using a cutting disc on a 100mm offhand grinder. Mark the postion of the sllit for  easy location when needed.

We have also developed a range of products to make hanging the rainmaker easier.

  • Pole Adapter - used with a painters extension pole this adapter removes the need to climb a ladder.
  • Bolt on Mount - Screws to any verticle flay surface to provide a secure mounting pint.

Turn it on

Activating the sprinkler is simply a case of turning on the valve, having a valve controling each rainmaker allows for fine tuning. They don't need to be spinning flat out to do the job, larger droplets are best.
