Don’t bother to feed a rainwater butt off a shed roof, I tried this and although it did fill over winter the surface area of the shed’s roof was too small for any useable quantity of water during the growing season.

However, if you invest in a water butt, the rainwater is diverted from the drainpipe to the water butt. litres | The Green Basics rain barrel has a capacity of 200 litres and is easily installed on the downspout When the rain tank is full, excess water flows through the overflow into the rain tank. This may mean that the bottom section will need to be pumped out once in a while to prevent it going stale. If you’re serious about growing fruit and veg then consider install two rain barrels or one very large one.You can then use it for watering your plants, as drinking water for your pets or for washing your windows. Turning wet weather into a windfall, water butts are a great way to conserve water while keeping your garden well-maintained and healthy. However, if that's not the case, we've got a great outline of what to do from Save Money, Cut Carbon.

Made from frostproof and UV stabilised plastic it comes with a brass tap and is available in a wide range of colours, from muted milstone and black to bright orange and purple. In short, we love that this product is compatible with all systems, reliable and made from recycled materials.

Finished in a Georgian style complete with Tudor roses, this handmade water butt is made from galvanised steel.

With a wide selection of designs to choose from, our stylish water butts do more than just collect rainwater, they also serve as a visual statement, adding an eye-catching element to your outdoor space. If that’s not possible then an external socket will let you do achieve the same result with an electric pump.You’ll find rain barrels in pretty much every garden centre now – and even some discount supermarkets. Cheaper than their steel counterparts, plastic water butts come in both the mounted style or the traditional barrel with a stand such as the Cloudburst Water Butt. REUSE RAINWATER - This rain barrel not only allows you to capture and reuse rainwater, but also serves as a flower pot. If your rain barrel doesn’t have a tap fitted at the very bottom of the barrel it will never be drained down fully.
