2500 USG Above Ground Rainwater Harvesting Package with Grundfos SCALA2 Pump
The 2500 USG Above Ground Rainwater Harvesting Package is designed for properties that need higher-capacity rainwater storage and reliable water pressure for everyday non-potable applications.
Built around a large 2500 US gallon above-ground tank, this system provides approximately 9,460 litres of storage capacity. It combines high-efficiency pre-filtration, a full-flow outlet assembly, and a Grundfos SCALA2 water pump to create a practical rainwater collection and distribution system.
The package is well suited for larger homes, rural properties, gardens, greenhouses, landscaping, and light commercial applications where consistent water supply and pressure are important.
How the System Works
Rainwater collected from your roof travels through the 4" Maelstrom High Efficiency Filter before entering the storage tank.
The filter helps remove leaves, organic material, and other debris from incoming rainwater while allowing water to flow efficiently into the tank.
The collected water is stored in the 2500 USG above-ground tank until needed.
Water exits through the 2" bolted ball valve and reducer before reaching the Grundfos SCALA2 pump. The pump provides pressurized water for compatible irrigation, hose, and water distribution applications.
Ideal Uses
This high-capacity system can support a wide range of non-potable water applications, including:
- Garden and landscape irrigation
- Large vegetable gardens
- Greenhouses
- Tree and shrub watering
- Garden hose connections
- Outdoor cleaning
- Washing equipment and tools
- Property maintenance
- Rural and acreage applications
- Supplemental water storage
The large tank capacity makes it especially useful for properties with larger roof catchment areas or higher seasonal water demand.

Tips for Getting the Most from Your Rainwater System
Choose the right tank location.
Install the tank close to your main roof drainage system when possible. This can simplify piping and help maximize rainwater collection.
Prepare a strong, level base.
A full 2500 USG tank can weigh close to 9.5 tonnes from the stored water alone. The foundation must be level, stable, and suitable for the full operating weight of the system.
Keep your gutters clean.
Removing leaves and debris from your gutters reduces the amount of material reaching the filtration system.
Inspect the Maelstrom filter regularly.
Check and clean the filter as required to maintain good flow and filtration performance.
Plan the overflow before installation.
Large rain events can fill the tank quickly. Direct overflow safely away from foundations and toward an appropriate drainage, infiltration, or landscaped area.
Use the stored water regularly.
Creating available capacity before the next rainfall allows your system to capture more water throughout the season.
Protect the pump and plumbing.
Install the Grundfos SCALA2 according to manufacturer requirements and protect the pump, piping, and fittings from freezing conditions.
Match irrigation demand to your stored water.
For larger gardens or irrigation zones, consider watering in sections rather than running every outlet at the same time.
Store More Rainwater. Use It When You Need It.
The 2500 USG Above Ground Rainwater Harvesting Package combines large-capacity storage, efficient filtration, and dependable pressurized water delivery in one complete system.
