FAQs
What is a water butt?
Water butts are large containers that allow you to collect and store rainwater, which can then be used for watering your garden, washing your car or other outdoor tasks. They come in different sizes so whether you have a small or large garden, there’s a water butt perfect for you.
What are the benefits of having a water butt?
By using rainwater instead of tap water, you can reduce your water consumption and potentially lower your utility bills. Depending on the size of your water butt and the amount of rainwater you collect, you may be able to reduce your water expenses over time which helps to conserve water resources.
For those who love gardening, having a water butt in your garden makes it easier to access water for your plants. Instead of using water from the mains, you can use a watering can or a hose connected directly to the water butt. This can save you time and effort when tending to your garden.
How long can you keep water in a water butt?
One of the best things about a water butt is that they don’t need too much maintenance. It’s recommended to empty and clean your water butt at least once a year to prevent buildup of algae, debris and bacteria. However, if you notice any signs of contamination or if the water quality is compromised, you may need to empty and clean it more frequently. Regular maintenance using water butt treatment will help ensure that the water collected in the water butt remains clean and safe to use.
