Flotank, flow cell? http://www.atlantiscorp.com.au/trade-products/flo-tank It gets no better than these. They will hold several tonne so can go under a drive. They will also allow more water out into the soil faster than any other form of drainage.

Also, is one poly soakwell per downpipe enough? Re: SOAKWELLS - How easy are they to put in and install ? 100Jun 12, 2011 8:46 pm You'd be pretty under gunned. Personally I'd be using tropical guttering and 100mm down pipes. I'd be interconnecting all the flo tanks. However not many homes have that available. Perth is in for a hell of a change. We will see far less rainfall (estimated to be between 30% and 60% less than now in the next 15-30 years). However we will see far greater rainfall rates. The storms of March 2010 and Feb this year will become more common however they were at the extreme end of the scale. So it makes sense to prepare for that and think ahead. Soakwell solutions use a whole variety of different types of soak wells. Atlantiscorp is the producer not the supplier of flo tanks to the best of my knowledge. Of course who ever is cheapest, but it's that style of tank/well that is what is really needed. DIY, Home Maintenance & Repair I mean, I install them/sell them for a living so I haven't done DIY, unless you count the first one I installed lol. (electrician by trade). Usually a 6-8 hour job for… 3 41541 That's a fantastic result! Happy you got it sorted out. cheers Simeon 6 8640 0 9805 |
