Description

This is a premium tap with a no-leak guarantee. There are many "water butt taps" on the market however which unfortunately are not suitable for a permanent connection. Brands to avoid (Straight, Strata, Best, Merryway). We have sold these before and we were not aware of this issue. Please let us know if you have had problems and we will replace your tap free of charge. One essential accessory is the rain diverter kit which is is used to effectively direct rainwater from a downpipe into your water butt.

Our new taps are "Waddington & Duval LTD". These taps are quality (more expensive unfortunately but this is a good example of you get what you pay for) and the actual size is 0.4mm larger around the seal to provide a suitable, permanent fix.If your water butt didn't come with a stand, or you made a do-it-yourself butt from an old plastic wheelie bin or other suitable container, there's the option to buy a stand separately. A stand is crucial to allow you fill a watering can or other water carrier below the tap on a butt. It will also help to create a tad more water pressure by way of gravitational force. There are also plenty of cleaning accessories available for cleaning the interior of a water butt. The products available to buy for reducing smells, scum, algae, harmful bacteria and green water come in liquid or tablet form. There are also silver and copper anti-microbial water cleaner discs which use industrial silver which is also found in water purifiers and other cleansing devices. These tablets can destroy fungal and micro-organisms and are also safe to use in ponds, fish tanks, horse troughs and bird baths. When you buy a water butt or barrel is will usually comprise the main plastic water container, a lid and a downpipe diverter to allow you to direct water from your gutter into the barrel. Most butts also come with a stand to rest the container on and a tap to get water out of the container into a watering can or other device. Let's not forget the old faithful watering can that's found in just about every garden in the UK - we feature several types of plastic and gavanised metal cans to cater for all your trips from you butt to your flower beds and greenhouse. There are various accessories which can support your water-harvesting efforts - a submersible electric pump, for example, will allow you to get more pressurised water from your container.

Most water butts come with all the essential parts, instructions and basic accessories to get you up and running - but there are plenty of other handy extras you can buy to really get the best out of your new water harvesting container. Downpipe plastic or mesh guards are excellent accessories which will stop leaves and other debris getting into your water butt. There are very easy to install and feature flexible slats to enable you to adjust them to fit the width of any downpipe opening.
