Troubleshooting

Tank is not collecting water

Ensure the tank is positioned in an area that receives rainfall. Check that the built-in filter is not clogged and is seated correctly.

Water flow from tap is slow

Check if the tap is fully open. Ensure the lower drain opening is securely closed. The water level might be low.

Visible debris in collected water

Clean the internal filtering insert to remove any accumulated leaves or debris. Ensure the filter is properly reinstalled.

Tank appears faded after prolonged sun exposure

While made of UV-resistant HDPE, extreme prolonged exposure can cause minor fading. Regular cleaning can help maintain its appearance. Consider positioning in partial shade if fading is a concern.
