FAQs

What material is the watering can made of?

The SolaDirect Watering Can is made of high-quality, durable plastic that is resistant to mechanical damage and adverse effects of sunlight.

Can I use this watering can for seedlings?

Yes, when the detachable sprinkler rose head is attached, it provides a gentle, dispersed watering stream ideal for delicate seedlings and young plants.

How do I clean the watering can?

You can rinse the can with water and clean the removable strainer by detaching it and washing it separately. Use a damp cloth for the exterior.

Is the sprinkler rose head removable?

Yes, the sprinkler rose head is detachable, allowing you to choose between a gentle spray or a direct pour.

What is the capacity of the watering can?

The watering can has a large capacity, designed to reduce the frequency of refills.

Can this watering can be left outdoors?

Yes, the plastic is designed to be resistant to mechanical damage and the adverse effects of sunlight, making it suitable for outdoor use.

Troubleshooting

Water flow is weak or uneven from the rose head.

Check if the sprinkler rose head is clogged. Remove it and clean the holes with a soft brush or by rinsing it under running water. Ensure the removable strainer inside the can is also clean and properly seated.

Handle feels uncomfortable or difficult to grip.

Ensure you are holding the handle with the intended grip. The large design is meant to accommodate various hand sizes, but proper technique ensures comfort.

Plastic shows signs of fading after outdoor use.

While the plastic is UV-resistant, prolonged, intense sun exposure can eventually cause some fading. Storing the watering can out of direct sunlight when not in use can help maintain its color.
