Rain Harvesting WDIG99 In-ground First Flush Water Diverter Kit

Installed on a 1500 gallon wet pipe system (purchased this to allow for slow drainage and return to a dry pipe system in between rains), product did not perform as advertised. Put together per instructions; however, the end caps allowing the transition from the 12 inch PVC to either 3 or 4 inch PVC leaked. The leaking was so prolific that it appeared that a pressure main had ruptured adjacent to the tank. I contacted the company, twice by email and twice by phone (US distributer) with no response or return call, over a two week period. I inquired with some local rain harvesting supply houses, they mentioned similar issues from people and advised not to utilize. They guessed some difference between the OD diameter of PVC made in the US and that made in Australia (I have not verified if there is a difference). Regardless, if this is the case then it should be mentioned by the manufacturer somewhere in its literature. Regardless, do not waste your money and time, and do not expect anything from customer service, best I can tell, you're on your own.

Installed last summer, working great all winter. You have to pay attention while installing, install per the directions or this may not function as well as it works for me. High quality parts, fitment was excellent when using Schedule 40 pipe. I run the whole house roof through this system, filtered upstream of the diverter with a self cleaning Wisey filter, used 20' of 12" sch 40 PVC to divert the first 100 gals for water quality into 7500 gals of underground storage.
