How do I remove Warps?
by RainSaucers Inc. on October 12th, 2016

One problem specific to the 48" RainSaucer is that heavy wind gusts (considered gale force according to the Beaufort Scale of Wind Force) can sometimes warp or invert the unit making it unusable. In our experience, this is only a temporary issue. Once this problem occurs, the key is to reinstall the system by:
An alternative to upgrading is to implement the 48" directly on to an open container such as a trash can (as we do with the 59") and running two perpendicular ropes from holes on one edge of the unit, under the container, to holes on the opposite edge on the RainSaucer.
If you don't want to switch tanks or containers you could also host the 48" RainSaucer on a 5 gallon bucket instead and put the new implementation on top of your original tank. Then all one needs to do is make an overflow from the bucket to the tank.
- removing the fasteners
- laying the disk out until it becomes as flat as possible again (with weight if needed)
- reinstalling the unit
