Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Choose a level and stable location for the water butt.
- For maximum collection, consider connecting a downpipe using appropriate adapters (sold separately) to the inlet.
- Attach a tap (sold separately) to one of the ¾-inch threaded openings if desired for easy watering.
Compatibility:
The ¾-inch threaded openings are compatible with standard garden hoses and taps. The optional downpipe connection will depend on the diameter of your existing guttering and the adapters used.
Care:
- Periodically clean the internal filter to remove leaves and debris.
- Wash the exterior with mild soap and water as needed.
- Ensure the tank is empty during freezing temperatures to prevent frost damage, though the HDPE is designed to be frost-resistant.
