Why You Need Water Butt Accessories

Setting up a rainwater collection system is more than just placing a water butt under a drainpipe. To harvest rainwater effectively, you’ll need:

  • ✅ A rainwater diverter to direct water from your downpipe into the butt

  • ✅ Water butt connectors to link multiple water butts together

  • ✅ Taps, outlet tubes, and drainage components for easy water access

  • ✅ Secure lids and filters to keep debris and insects out

  • ✅ Extension kits to scale up your system as your needs grow

With the right accessories, you can easily collect, store, and use free rainwater for gardening, cleaning, or even flushing toilets — reducing your reliance on mains water and lowering your water bills.
