2 Background Rainwater Management Solutions Siphonic Roof Drainage and Rainwater Harvesting Rainwater Management Solutions developed the design for siphonic roof drain, patent pending, and entered into a licensing agreement with Jay R. Smith Mfg. Co. to develop, manufacture and distribute the siphonic roof drains. In addition, Rainwater Management Solutions developed engineering software for the design of siphonic roof drainage systems. The Siphonic Roof Drainage System The following three pages are from the Jay R. Smith Mf. Co s. Brochure Siphonic Roof Drains The level approach to roof drainage TM. Page 2

6 Siphonic Roof Drain Technical Standards Technical Standards have been issued by the American Society of Plumbing Engineers (ASPE) for Siphonic Roof Drainage System Design. This standard eliminates the requirement to seek approval for installation of an alternative roof drainage system as a variance to the conventional gravity based roof drainage system standard. John Rattenbury, P.E., was Chairman of the committee drafting the standards The American Society of Mechanical Engineers developed a standard for siphonic roof drains (A Siphonic Roof Drains ) which was approved by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) 0n July 8, Page 6

9 Rainwater Harvesting Rainwater harvesting may be utilized for recycling the rainwater for numerous applications including: irrigation, fire suppression, toilet flushing, chilling tower water makeup, potable uses in non public spaces, commercial laundry water supply, car washing, roof cooling, and water features. Rainwater harvesting may be used in conjunction with siphonic roof drainage systems or independent of the siphonic system. Rainwater Management Solutions utilizes the Wisy products for first flush of the rainwater and floating filters in the cisterns. The first flush filters are vortex filters and require little maintenance. The following pages, 10 through 12, contain pictures of the Wisy rainwater harvesting components and the Vortex filters. Page 13 illustrates a rainwater harvesting system utilizing a siphonic roof drainage system. Page 9
