Rain Harvesting First Flush Downspout - First Flush Diverter Kit, Suits 3" Round Pipes

I bought 2 of these and they work great, depending on the amount of rain you get, make sure you change out the rubber washer to make sure it drains fast enough! Great product!

Works very well for our rain catchment system!

Paid higher shipping rate for faster delivery & that didn't happen. Cost $11 more for the service. The product is as advertised with everything in place. Easy instructions & install.

I wrote this in the Leaf Eater comments and it deserves to be here too. I love these and combined them with the Downpipe First Flush Water Diverter Kit system. (also on Amazon) And they work great. I'm in a 3rd world Caribbean country and have had NO city water for almost 2 years and in a major drought. We are having are second heavy rain since last FEB. and watching these simple systems collecting water off a rather dirty roof with the Leaf Eater taking out the larger debris while the flush system takes captures the finer dust and... bird stuff. Both need a little cleaning type maintenance after a hard rain, it is easy to do and I'm glad to do it. I have 3 of the 4 Leaf Eaters installed so they are easy to get to from upper porch, the other I need a ladder. The Flush system needs to be opened at the bottom, easy by hand, to clear the drain. But since we have only had 2 heavy rains, they have a lot of garbage to deal with. Since we need all the water we can get, small price to pay. 1" of rain = 2,000 gallons for us going into 2 water cisterns. I'll take all that I can. Not difficult to install. We are on the Atlantic Ocean with VERY salty air; the Leaf Eater stainless steel grid has held up very well with NO corrosion at all. We also have had to put in a well, very salty and nasty water but we have filters/UV and 3 RO systems by iSpring that deliver 1,500 a day. When you don't have ANY water, you do what you need to do. When you find good products that could help others dealing with drought and water problems, then you should talk about them. Thank you

This is a very good product. Performs perfectly. I am very satisfied with the performance. I have gotten inquiries from both friends and family. I highly recommend it to anyone who is thinking of rain harvesting.

This is on my chicken coop water system. I love it.

The system works just fine, however, trying to match up fittings is tough. I cheated and used thin wall PVC, which is what you use for low pressure drain systems, and put the socket inside the first flush fittings to take up the slack. Even the plumbing supply store guy couldn't find a better fit. It could be that high pressure white schedule 40 pipe could fit these fittings, but then the pvc fitting from the downpipe to the first flush won't fit. You have to use the thin wall, low pressure pipe to make that part fit. Secondly, the fitting at the bottom leaks like a sieve. The reason, the o ring inside the fitting is too small in diameter, and just sit there. So you have a plastic on plastic connection that leaks. I like the idea, and once I got everything more or less fitted, it works well. However, I plugged up the orifice drain on the bottom, because the bottom fitting leaks as much or more than the smallest drain orifice in the kit.

Great system.

Just bought this unit, looks and sounds great but you can't buy the pipe or fittings to go with it in the uk so a compleate waist of money!
