Rethinking Traditional Rainwater Collection
Traditional rainwater harvesting systems often force homeowners to install collection devices directly under downspouts. Consequently, this severely limits both collection capacity and storage flexibility. Furthermore, this conventional approach to gutter rainwater collection wastes valuable water resources. Additionally, it frequently results in costly property damage, including foundation issues and water pooling problems.
Moreover, modern rainwater harvesting systems demand innovative solutions that overcome these traditional limitations. Therefore, by rethinking how we approach gutter rainwater collection, homeowners can unlock their roof’s water-capturing potential. Meanwhile, they maintain complete control over storage placement and system efficiency.
Introducing the Deviator – Innovative Rainwater Harvesting Systems Solution
The Deviator represents a breakthrough in flexible rainwater storage technology. Indeed, it fundamentally transforms how properties capture and store precious rainwater. Furthermore, this specialized gutter insert installs at your gutter’s lowest point, approximately six inches before the downspout. Subsequently, it enables revolutionary non-vertical water redirection through an advanced horizontal delivery system.
With flexible rainwater storage capabilities, homeowners can now position rain tanks strategically anywhere on their property. For instance, they can place them in gardens, near irrigation zones, or wherever practical needs dictate. Consequently, this innovation eliminates the restrictive constraints of traditional systems. As a result, it provides unprecedented freedom in rainwater collection and storage planning.
Maximizing Roof Area and Collection Efficiency
The Deviator’s retrofit rainwater system design enables access to significantly more roof area for water collection. Specifically, it captures more water than conventional methods allow. Installing a Deviator on your home’s front section captures water from the entire front roof area. Additionally, extra Deviators on other gutter sections can achieve nearly complete roof coverage. This modular retrofit rainwater system integrates seamlessly with existing gutters and gutter guards.
Therefore, it makes property upgrades simple and cost-effective. Moreover, the system’s adaptability makes it perfect for residential installations, municipal projects, and contractor applications. Ultimately, it provides versatile, efficient rainwater harvesting systems for all property types.
Key Benefits of the Deviator System
The Deviator delivers comprehensive sustainable water management benefits that extend far beyond traditional collection methods:
- Flexible Placement: Position storage tanks strategically anywhere on your property
- Retrofit Compatibility: Seamlessly integrates with existing gutter systems and guards

FAQ
What is the Deviator?
The Deviator is a specialized gutter insert for rainwater harvesting systems that revolutionizes water collection. It installs at your gutter’s lowest point, about six inches before the downspout. Subsequently, it redirects rainwater horizontally through a flexible delivery system to storage tanks positioned anywhere on your property.
How does the Deviator differ from traditional rainwater collection methods?
Traditional gutter rainwater collection systems require storage tanks directly under downspouts, limiting placement options and collection capacity. Conversely, the Deviator enables flexible rainwater storage by redirecting water horizontally. Therefore, you can place tanks wherever they’re most convenient or effective on your property.
Can the Deviator work with existing gutter systems?
Yes, the Deviator is designed as a retrofit rainwater system that integrates seamlessly with existing gutters. Additionally, it works with most gutter guards and standard gutter configurations. Furthermore, installation doesn’t require major modifications to your current gutter setup.
Where exactly does the Deviator install in my gutter system?
The Deviator installs at the lowest point of your gutter, approximately six inches before the downspout. Specifically, this positioning ensures optimal water collection while maintaining proper gutter drainage. Moreover, the horizontal redirection system connects to flexible tubing for water transport.
Will the Deviator work with gutter guards?
Absolutely. The retrofit rainwater system design specifically accommodates existing gutter guards without compromising their function. Indeed, the Deviator maintains proper water flow while enabling collection through its innovative horizontal delivery system.
How many Deviators do I need for my home?
The number depends on your roof size and collection goals. For instance, one Deviator on your front gutter captures water from that roof section. Additionally, installing multiple Deviators on different gutter sections can achieve nearly 100% roof water harvesting.
Can I install the Deviator myself?
While the system integrates with existing gutters, we recommend professional installation for optimal performance. Furthermore, contractors familiar with sustainable water management systems can ensure proper positioning and connection to your storage system.
How much more water can I collect with the Deviator?
The Deviator can significantly increase your collection capacity by accessing more roof area. Specifically, traditional systems only collect from areas directly above downspouts. Conversely, the Deviator captures water from entire gutter sections, potentially maximizing your rainwater harvesting system efficiency.
Does the Deviator affect normal gutter drainage?
No, the Deviator is designed to enhance, not interfere with, normal gutter function. Indeed, it maintains proper drainage while redirecting a portion of water for collection. Additionally, overflow protection ensures gutters continue functioning during heavy rainfall.
What happens during heavy storms?
The system includes overflow protection to prevent gutter backup during intense rainfall. Subsequently, excess water continues flowing to downspouts as normal. Therefore, your gutters maintain their primary drainage function while collecting water when capacity allows.
How much maintenance does the Deviator require?
The Deviator requires minimal maintenance, similar to standard gutter components. Specifically, regular gutter cleaning and inspection suffice for optimal performance. Additionally, the durable construction matches the longevity of quality gutter systems.
What materials is the Deviator made from?
The Deviator uses weather-resistant materials designed for long-term outdoor exposure. Furthermore, all components meet or exceed standard gutter system durability requirements. Moreover, the materials resist corrosion and UV damage for extended service life.
Will the Deviator freeze in winter?
The system is designed to handle seasonal temperature variations typical in the Pacific Northwest. Additionally, proper installation includes considerations for freeze protection. However, like all gutter rainwater collection systems, seasonal preparation may be recommended.
Where can I place my rain storage tank with the Deviator?
One of the Deviator’s key advantages is flexible rainwater storage placement. For instance, you can position tanks in gardens, near irrigation zones, or wherever practical needs dictate. Consequently, you’re not limited to areas directly under downspouts.
What size storage tank works best with the Deviator?
Tank size depends on your collection goals and available space. Specifically, the flexible rainwater storage capability allows for various tank sizes and configurations. Additionally, multiple smaller tanks can be positioned strategically around your property.
Can I connect multiple tanks to one Deviator?
Yes, the flexible delivery system can accommodate multiple storage configurations. Furthermore, you can connect tanks in series or parallel arrangements depending on your sustainable water management goals.
