First flush devices are used in rooftop rainwater harvesting (RTRWH) systems, in order to prevent debris, dirt, dust and droppings that collect on the catchment area from entering the collection and storage tank. Different types exist, such as float valve types, overflow flow types, flow rate types or electronic conductivity types. First flush diverter devices improve water quality, reduce tank maintenance and protect pumps.
