Install your Rainmaker® system with confidence.

Check what is in the box and confirm your water supply before going up on the roof.

• What's included: one 6 metre Rainmaker® module, 2 pre-fitted flexible sprinkler heads, UV-stabilised PVC mounting brackets, push-fit connectors and end caps.
• Tools required: cordless drill, appropriate screws, two-part epoxy adhesive, tape measure, adjustable spanner and safe roof access equipment.
• Water supply: municipal, borehole, water tank or dam — any suitable supply that can deliver the required pressure.
• Minimum operating pressure: 2 bar at the system inlet.
• Work with a second person, in dry conditions, and follow safe working-at-height practice. A registered plumber can complete the connection if you prefer.

The module is installed on top of the roof ridge and runs along the length of the ridge.

• Mount the module ON TOP OF the ridge, parallel to it, running along the full length of the ridge line.
• Do not mount the module beside the ridge, down the roof slope, or across the ridge.
• Position the UV-stabilised PVC brackets evenly along the ridge, then fix each bracket with screws bonded using two-part epoxy adhesive.
• Clip the module onto the mounted brackets so both flexible sprinkler heads stand clear of the ridge cap.
• Each 6 m module carries 2 flexible sprinkler heads, each with a 12 metre spray radius, giving overlapping coverage along the ridge.

Rainmaker® connects to the water source you already have on the property.

• Municipal water: connect to a suitable outdoor supply point or dedicated feed line.
• Borehole: connect downstream of your existing pump and pressure vessel.
• Water tank: feed from the tank outlet — a pump is normally needed to reach the required pressure.
• Dam or reservoir: feed via a suitably sized pump and inlet filter.
• Garden tap: suitable where the tap can deliver the required pressure and flow.
• Minimum operating pressure is 2 bar. If your available pressure is below 2 bar, an inline pressure pump may be required. A pressure pump is not included with the standard module.

Longer ridges and larger properties are covered by joining modules end to end.

• Join 6 metre modules end-to-end with the supplied push-fit connectors to form one continuous run along the ridge.
• Keep every module on top of the ridge and in line with the run — do not step modules down the slope.
• Fit an end cap to the final module to close the run.
• Detailed connection diagrams for multi-module runs will be added to this section as the product documentation is finalised.

Commission the system once, so you know it works before you ever need it.

• Open the supply slowly and check every joint and connector for leaks.
• Confirm the system holds and operates at a minimum of 2 bar.
• Check that both sprinkler heads on each module produce an even spray along the ridge.
• Rainmaker® is manually activated — you open the water supply when you choose to protect the property.
• Final step-by-step testing and commissioning instructions will be published in this section.

Common questions and what to check first.

• Weak or uneven spray — check available pressure at the inlet; below 2 bar an inline pressure pump may be required.
• No water reaching the module — confirm the supply is fully open and check for a closed valve or blocked inlet filter.
• Leak at a joint — depressurise, re-seat the push-fit connector and re-test.
• Spray not reaching far enough — confirm module placement along the ridge and check pressure at the inlet.
• Still stuck? Contact the Rainmaker® team and we will help you diagnose it.

Please read before and after installation.

• Rainmaker® is manually activated. It is not an automatic wildfire detection or activation system.
• Always follow safe working-at-height practice, or appoint a registered plumber or qualified installer.
• Do not modify the module, sprinkler heads or connectors.
• Inspect the installation visually from time to time, and after severe weather.
• Rainmaker® reduces wildfire risk to the protected area. It does not guarantee that a structure cannot be damaged by fire.
