PLUVIALIS rainwater filter
easy installation at your downpipe

PLUVIALIS, the rainwater filter - so it works.

Water that is runnung down in vertical pipes has the personal characteristic to drain at the inside of the tube. This physical effect is called adhesion.

This personal characteristic we take advantage for the rainwater filter and guide the rainwater inside the tube to the filtering material. The non rotted filtering material material rounds the tube as a multilayer. So the filter can adsorb a lot of dirt and mud.

Also the rough dirt from the roof is coming with the downpipe to the filter. For this rough dirt the filter has an integrated space and increase the efficiency.
