How do I clean the diverter?

Remove any debris or blockages from the diverter and hose. You can rinse the filter (if included) under running water.

Can I use this diverter with any water butt?

Yes, but you will need to ensure your water butt has a suitable inlet for the hose connection.

Does the diverter require any maintenance?

Yes, regular inspection and cleaning of the diverter and hose are recommended to ensure optimal performance. In winter, you should disconnect the diverter and hose to prevent freezing.

Is the installation difficult?

What is the purpose of the hose?

The hose connects the diverter to the water butt, allowing the diverted rainwater to be collected and stored.

What happens when the water butt is full?

Troubleshooting

Water is not flowing into the water butt.

Check for blockages in the diverter or hose. Ensure the hose is properly connected to both the diverter and the water butt. Verify that the water butt isn't full, causing water to bypass the diverter.
