No, you must place the butt on a solid, level, and flat surface. Placing it on soil or grass can lead to uneven weight distribution and structural failure.
Yes, the water butt comes with a pre-drilled tap installed for immediate use.
When full, the water butt holds 350 litres of water, which weighs approximately 350 kilograms (plus the weight of the plastic container).
The total height of the unit is 108 cm.
Yes, it is designed for all-weather durability, though it is recommended to drain it before severe winter freezes to prevent damage.
Ensure the base is perfectly level; remove the unit and create a solid, flat foundation using concrete slabs or pavers.
Check that the tap is tightened correctly and ensure the internal washer is seated flat against the wall of the butt.
Check for debris inside the butt that may be blocking the tap inlet; flush the system if necessary.
To ensure proper function, place the water butt on a firm, level surface like patio slabs, concrete, or decking; do not place the butt on soft soil or grass as the weight of 350 litres of water (approximately 350 kg) will cause it to sink or tilt. Connect the unit to your downpipe using a standard rain diverter kit. For routine care, periodically check the tap connection for leaks and clear the lid of debris to ensure the water remains clean. During winter, if you expect freezing temperatures, it is advisable to drain the water butt to prevent the plastic from cracking under ice expansion.
