FAQs
What are the dimensions of the water butt?
Each water butt measures 32cm L x 36cm W x 95cm H.
Can I connect both butts together?
While the kits are provided for individual setup, they are designed to work alongside your guttering system; if you have two separate downpipes, you can use one butt for each.
How much does the stand raise the butt?
The stand measures 30.5cm in height, providing ample space for standard-sized watering cans.
Is the material weather-resistant?
Yes, the water butts are constructed from durable plastic designed to withstand outdoor environmental conditions.
Should I empty the butt during winter?
Yes, it is best practice to drain the water to prevent ice expansion from damaging the plastic.
Troubleshooting
Water is not flowing into the butt during rain.
Check the filler kit connection to ensure the downpipe diverter is correctly positioned and free of debris.
The butt is leaking from the tap area.
Ensure the tap is tightened securely and the washer is correctly seated against the wall of the butt.
The unit feels unstable.
Verify that the stand is placed on a flat, level surface and that the weight of the water is evenly distributed.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure you have a level surface such as paving or a sturdy wooden deck to prevent the butt from tipping when full. Assemble the stands according to the provided instructions before placing the butts on top. Connect the filler kit to your downpipe following the provided manufacturer guide to ensure a watertight seal. Maintenance is minimal: periodically check the gutter intake for leaves or debris to ensure the water flows freely. During the winter, it is recommended to drain the water butts if there is a risk of freezing to prevent any structural stress on the plastic casing.
