Rainwater down pipe filter is installed in the lower section of the down pipe. It is easy to monitor due to its installation position and it position to the My ECO Barrel™ or storage tank. No need to lift heavy lids or to climb down into storage tanks, as required when filters are installed underground or higher above at the gutter position. A down pipe filter produces cleaned rainwater that flows out down the filter and into the My ECO Barrel™ or rainwater harvesting tank.
