The Polybutt 150L Woodgrain Effect Water Butt is designed for eco-conscious gardeners who want a durable, aesthetically pleasing way to harvest rainwater. It is ideal for those looking to maintain their plants and lawns while reducing reliance on mains water. While the unit provides a robust 150-litre capacity, users should ensure they have sufficient space to accommodate its 127cm height and 52cm diameter alongside their downpipe installation.

Yes, rainwater is excellent for vegetable gardens, but ensure you keep the lid closed to prevent contaminants from entering.
The kit is designed for standard round downpipes. You may need an adapter if your home uses square or unusual downpipe profiles.
While it is UV-stabilised, we recommend draining it during periods of extreme freezing to prevent ice expansion.
Yes, using a connecting hose kit (sold separately), you can link another butt to increase total capacity.
Water weighs approximately 1kg per litre, so a full 150L butt will weigh roughly 150kg plus the weight of the unit itself.
Ensure the washer is correctly seated and the tap is tightened firmly, but avoid overtightening to prevent cracking the plastic threads.
Check that the rain diverter is correctly aligned with the downpipe and that the filter mesh inside the diverter is not clogged with leaves.
Ensure the water butt is placed on the supplied stand; the elevation is required for gravity-fed pressure.
