About IBC Tote UV Covers
IBC Tote UV Covers feature waterproof, mildew-resistant, and fire-retardant materials designed to withstand extreme weather, with some units lasting up to 10 years in continuous outdoor use. Higher-quality Tote UV Covers are primarily constructed from heavyweight, woven polyester that is fully coated to block 100% of harmful ultraviolet rays, preventing algae growth and plastic degradation.
- Size: Available in 210D, 420D, and 600D thickness covering and protecting the entire 275 gallon tote from top to bottom.
- Secure Fit: Usually equipped with grommets, elastic hems, and tie-down straps to prevent covers from blowing off in high winds.
- Accessibility: Best designs include a top opening hatch with a frontal zipper for easy monitoring and access to contents without compromising UV protection.
- Durability: Materials are often woven polyester, UV-stabilized, cold-resistant (down to -40°F/-40°C), and chemical-resistant, ensuring long-term integrity against sun, rain, dust, and debris.
- Breathability: Better models feature mesh vents to reduce condensation and mildew buildup while maintaining a waterproof exterior.
While painted totes or black plastic wraps are common DIY alternatives and affective, they often lack the durability and complete light-blocking capability of purpose-built covers and can be difficult to determine content level. For optimal protection, HDPE totes with factory-blended UV inhibitors are often paired with these covers to prevent brittleness and potential tank failure.
About Rainwater Collection Systems
|
 Oatey Mystic 2" x 3" Rainwater Collection System
|
The Oatey Mystic 2" x 3" Rainwater Collection System is probably the best rainwater collection system for low volume rainwater collection purposes. Unfortunately, it appears that Oatey Mystic does not offer a 3" x 4" Rainwater Collection System. You can use PVC reducer couplings under the gutter opening for 2" x 3" or 3" x 4" spouting to 2" or 3" PVC to your tote cap filter available at your local hardware store.
The Oatey type rainwater collection system has some issues such as slow or less rainwater collection and rainwater overflow issues where 2" or 3" pvc rainwater collection guarantees maximum rain water collection.
Note: Rainwater totes have accessory equipment that is available for custom tank needs and specific application requirements such as different fitting and coupler attachment options. Top and bottom unloading pumps are available for water dispensing, along with hand nozzle and tubing kits for this purpose. These additional options are easily available for purchase.
