PRODUCT OVERVIEW / APPLICATION
The Vada Rain2Main is designed to select between stored rainwater
(when available) and mains supply water, and send this water to
your toilet cistern, washing machine, garden and other non-potable
household water applications. It features automatic pump control to
minimise the use of electricity while saving water.
When your tank is empty, the Rain2Main seamlessly switches to
mains water supply so that there is no interruption of water to your
toilet cistern or washing machine.
Do not use the Rain2Main for liquids other than clean water.
