Solar Shields

Designed to fit under your tank screen, our Solar Shield’s patented design blocks sunlight to prevent algae growth. Its cleverly designed fins evenly distribute and calm the water flow into your tank, minimizing sediment resuspension and ensuring that water stays at its best.

The unique fins on the Solar Shield create a 'shower head' effect for the inbound water - softening it's flow and reducing the chance of stirring up sediment.

The Solar Shield fits underneath the tank screen - so you still have flexibility with where you install inbound pipes (compared to a tank screen cover, which requires more careful pipe positioning).

Benefits

Prevent algae growth

Algae needs sunlight and nutrients to grow - just like other plants.

Tank Screens are the first line of defence and keep out leaves and debris from your tank, which reduces the tank's nutrient load.

The Solar Shield plays the next critical step in keeping out almost all sunlight from the tank. This reduces the chance for algae to grow within the tank, and ensures your rainwater remains of great quality.

Benefits

Prevent sediment resuspendion

The light shielding features of the Solar Shield create a unique fin shape. This was engineered not only to block out light and allow massive amounts of water to flow through, but to smoothly distribute the flow of water into the tank.

This creates a 'shower head' effect for the inbound water. The flow is spread out over a greater area which reduces the chance of sediment being stirred up. Preventing this sediment from being resuspended ensures your tank water remains of exceptional quality.
