A self-cleaning, fine filter is today recognized as an important component of modern rainwater harvesting. Best results are obtained with a sieve width of about 0.8 mm. Entry of contaminants into the rainwater storage and maintenance intervals are minimized. Particular care should be taken that the sieve used is arranged in a trough, as demonstrated by the test results of some rainwater filters. There are self-cleaning rainwater filters on the market, with which about 50% of the precious water discards into the overflow, a catastrophic loss!
