Rainsaver Mini 100 litre Grey Water Butt (1)

Product Information

Yes, rainwater collected in a properly maintained water butt is safe for various non-potable uses, such as watering plants or green spaces and outdoor cleaning. However, it's not recommended for drinking or cooking. When choosing a water butt you should take into account the space you have available for it. It will need to be located so that the downpipe that runs off the guttering of the house or building can easily reach it. Most water butts come with a diverter that fits onto the downpipe and directs water into the butt. Typically, about a third of household water is used for flushing the toilet, but reclaimed greywater can be used to fulfil this purpose saving valuable potable mains water.

Another benefit of water butts is that they are easy to install and use. Most water butts are designed to fit under a downpipe, allowing rainwater to flow directly into the storage tank. They also come with a tap or spigot at the bottom, allowing you to easily access the water when you need it. Some models even come with a hose or watering can attachment, making it even easier to use the collected rainwater for your gardening needs.
