This 100-litre grey water butt kit from B&Q is designed for homeowners seeking to conserve water for garden use. Its primary benefit is efficient rainwater harvesting, reducing reliance on mains water. A potential caveat is its suitability only for specific downpipe sizes. The kit includes a water butt, tap, stand, lid, and a rain diverter kit, simplifying installation and maximizing water collection from your roof.

While specific dimensions are not provided, the 'slimline' description suggests it is designed to be relatively compact. Please refer to product packaging or retailer specifications for exact measurements.
This kit is designed as a single unit. Connecting multiple butts would require additional fittings not included in this specific kit.
The kit includes a rain diverter kit with instructions. Generally, you will need to cut a section out of your existing downpipe and insert the diverter, connecting its outlet hose to the water butt.
The stand is optional but recommended. It raises the butt to make filling watering cans much easier and is included in this kit.
This system collects rainwater. It is suitable for watering plants and gardens. It is not intended for potable (drinking) water.
It is recommended to clean the water butt at least once a year, ideally in spring, to remove any sediment or algae buildup.
Warranty information is typically provided by the manufacturer or retailer. Please check the product packaging or your purchase receipt for details.
Check that the rain diverter is correctly installed and aligned with the downpipe and the water butt inlet. Ensure there are no blockages in the downpipe or the diverter kit.
Ensure the tap is securely tightened. Check the washer inside the tap connection for wear or damage and replace if necessary.
Clear any leaves, twigs, or debris from the downpipe, the rain diverter, and the water butt's inlet filter. Ensure the downpipe is not blocked further up.
Ensure the water butt and stand are placed on a flat, firm, and level surface. Avoid placing on soft ground or uneven patios.
Setup: The water butt comes pre-drilled, simplifying installation. Position the butt on a stable, level surface. Connect the rain diverter kit to your chosen downpipe according to the provided instructions. Ensure the diverter is securely fitted and channels water directly into the butt's inlet. Attach the tap and place the lid securely.
Compatibility: The rain diverter is compatible with standard 68mm round plastic downpipes and 65mm square plastic downpipes. It is not suitable for cast iron downpipes.
Care: Periodically clean the water butt, lid, and tap with mild soap and water. Ensure the rain diverter and inlet filter are free from debris (leaves, moss) to maintain optimal water flow. In winter, it is advisable to empty the water butt and disconnect the diverter to prevent frost damage.
