INSTALLATION: 

Points covered: 

 

Levelling of selected site; 

 

Unpacking the RainPac

TM

 and rolling out onsite; 

 

Inlet bladder connection; 

 

Outlet bladder connection; and, 

 

Installing the downpipe diverter, overflow and connection to the RainPac FloatPac. 

 

1.

 

Level the selected site with a spirit level and a piece of timber, which should ideally be the width of the area you have selected. Check and recheck 
the levelled area for anything sharp or dangerous that could harm the bladder (and its installer!).   

2.

 

 Carefully remove the RainPac

TM

 from its box and separate the fitting kit from the bladder.  The end that you will first see is the end where all the 

fittings are.  This is the end that is closest to the downpipe/s.  The RainPac

TM

 has been rolled the correct way so you can simply remove it from the 

box and lay out flat. 

Please note: As the RainPac

TM

 has been rolled up the correct way, it is very easy to install.  Make sure that once the bladder is laid out flat, the 100mm 

(4”) Hansen inlet is facing towards the ground.  The 2” (50mm) vent fitting in the centre of the RainPac

TM

 is the only fitting that should be facing 

towards the sky.  Also, do not be concerned if when you roll the bladder out it looks too wide for the area – as the bladder moves in at the sides as it 
fills, it will not cause any damage to the bladder or surrounding joiners/bearers and foundations. 

PLEASE MAKE SURE THE INLET FITTING IS FACING THE GROUND ONCE INSTALLATION IS COMPLETE
