Sizes &
Features
WWS guzzlers are designed to
be installed as stand-alone cisterns, with catchment aprons,
or tied into a pipeline from another water source (well).
Aprons (precipitation catchment roofs) increase the surface
area, improving the overall catch of water that can be
collected and deposited in the storage tank. While not
necessary for your wildlife watering facility, aprons
maximize precipitation harvest capabilities. |
