9) Install the Cover
Place the cover of the Downspout Filter onto the base and cover
it with at least a 1" layer of decorative gravel.
Maintenance
Your Downspout Filter should require very little maintenance. You will need to periodically
clean the filter net of debris. To check the filter net, clear off any leaves or twigs that may have
collected on top of the gravel and remove the Downspout Filter cover. Simply remove the net
and empty. Place the filter net back inside the Downspout Filter and replace the cover.

™
(Item #30166)
Thank you for choosing Aquascape's RainXchange
Downspout Filter. It is designed as a two-stage filter.
The first stage consists of a grated lid and layer of
gravel (not included) that removes large debris, such
as leaves, sticks, and seeds. The second stage is a
300 micron net that filters out finer particles, such
as sediment composed of roofing material, dust
and other debris. The water is then discharged out
of the Downspout Filter where it is further filtered
by Aquascape's RainXchange rainwater harvest
™
system. Multiple Downspout Filters may be used
on a project.

Small percolation holes at
the bottom of the filter allow
water remaining after a rain
event to slowly percolate out
of downspout filter preventing
stagnant mosquito-harboring
water accumulating in the filter
between rain events.
