Why Get a Waterbutt?

Water butts are great for the environment and save you money too!

Waterbutts are not only great for the enviornment, but can save you money too! By collecting rainwater from the roof of your house, shed or garage and saving it for when you need it means you don't have to use valuable drinking tap water to water your garden or even wash your car (you can even connect your water butt up to a pump or a pressure washer!). Not only does it save water but saves electricity too. This is because the water only has to travel a few meters down your downpipe rather than be pumped miles to your home using up lots of electricity.

Oh, and the plants in your garden like rainwater from your water butt more than from the tap - it's tastier!

In Summary:

  • Water butts save you money
  • Save water by using stored rainwater
  • Use stored water to water your garden, wash your car or patio when combined with a pressure washer.
  • Helps reduce flooding by reducing the amount of water running into drains.
  • Your plants will be healthier and grow better by using stored rainwater rather than tap water.
