The Watersmart leaf diverter fits most 80mm round plastic and metal downpipes.

The Watersmart Leaf Diverter is a purpose-built solution for ensuring cleaner, more efficient water collection in your stormwater or rainwater harvesting system. Designed with precision and durability in mind, the diverter uses a specially engineered rake mechanism to prevent leaves, twigs, and other debris from entering your water tank. By stopping blockages before they occur, it significantly reduces the need for frequent cleaning and ongoing maintenance, allowing your system to perform at its best year-round.

Crafted for compatibility and ease of installation, the Watersmart Leaf Diverter fits seamlessly onto both plastic and steel 80 mm downpipes. It slides neatly between pipe ends, making installation quick and straightforward—no specialist tools required. The UV-stabilised materials ensure longevity, even under New Zealand’s harsh weather conditions, so you can count on years of reliable performance.

Beyond its practical benefits, installing a leaf diverter is a council requirement under GD01, which states that every downpipe feeding a rainwater tank must include one. By choosing Watersmart, you’re not only ensuring compliance—you’re investing in smarter water management, better system health, and cleaner stored water. Whether you’re maintaining a residential setup or managing a large-scale commercial system, the Watersmart Leaf Diverter offers a simple, long-lasting solution that keeps your water cleaner and your system running smoothly.
