Rainwater Harvesting

The model shown is the 210 Ltr Water Butt. It also comes in a 100 Ltr size.

Water is a lot scarcer than we think. It just make sense to save water.  With the introduction of water meters in the next few years and its worth looking at ways to do that. At The Garden Centre we have water butts for sale which can be used to gather water from a down-pipe using a linkage Kit.

The Mini Rain-saver Water Butt allows for the collection of rainwater from roofs and downpipes.  The rainwater can then be used for watering plants and shrubs in your garden. It is manufactured from recycled plastic. The garden water butt is ideal for small gardens and yards.
The 210 lt water butt comes with a childproof lid.  The linkage kit is additional.
