The
British-made
Polybutt 220
is designed to look great in your garden and bring you a step closer to
water independence.
This
sturdy
and reliable water butt will
harvest the bountiful rainwater that falls on the roof of your home,
giving you
free, clean
water
to irrigate your plants or wash your car.
The Polybutt is
made in
England
by Polytank, a recognised world leader in
moulded plastics
with over 30 years
experience designing water butts.
The Rustic Water Butt for a Country Garden
Traditional plastic water
butts
can ruin the atmosphere of outdoor space and look ugly against your
house. The Polybutt 220, however, is designed to look great
in
your garden. Its moulded woodgrain finish gives the Polybutt
a
natural, rustic feel
suited to
country gardens. A variety of colours is available to match
the
design and landscape of your garden (please choose your colour from the
dropdown box at the bottom of this page).
Manufactured from UV stabilised LLDPE (linear low density
polyethylene), the Polybutt will not fade in the sunshine. At
just 520mm (less than 2ft) in diameter, the Polybutt 220 is ideal for
any home or garden, however large or small.
Save Money and the Environment
Rainwater is a freely available and bountiful commodity. Yet
it
is also highly valuable and essential for human, animal and plant life.
The Polybutt 220 will
collect
clean,
clear and safe rainwater from your roof. Using
this
rainwater that falls on the roof can reduce your tap water use by up to
50%, saving you significant money off a metered water bill.
As global warming rises, water is going to become increasingly scarce
and more expensive.
Collecting
rainwater at every opportunity will become the norm rather
than
the exception. Because the Polybutt is manufactured in England, it has
a smaller
carbon footprint than waterbutts that are shipped from
overseas.
Designed and Built to Last
The Polybutt 220 is built to last. It has a working life
of 10-15 years, and will not degrade over time or lose its strength.
The rotational moulding used in Polybutt's manufacture makes it much
stronger and sturdier than other
water butts
manufactured using injection moulding or blow moulding.
The Polybutt is simple to set up, with holes pre-drilled
for easy
fitting. Once set up, it does all the hard work of collecting rainwater
for you. All you have to do is turn on the Polybutt's tap and
let
it fill your bucket or watering can.
Included accessories
Stand, lid, fitted tap, and rainsaver (water diverter) are all included
with the
Polybutt.
Stand
Made from UV stabilised polyethylene, the stand will not
buckle
under the weight of water or during extreme hot weather. It
will
hold the wait of 400 litres of water making it failsafe for a 220
litre water butt.
Lid
Manufactured from UV stabilised polyethylene, the lid will not deform
or fade in the sun. It's strong enough to hold a plant pot or garden
ornament on top, adding to the natural and rustic feel of the
Polybutt. The lid is
secure
and
child friendly, held in place by 8mm clips.
Fitted Tap
Enables easy access to the rainwater collected by the
Polybutt.
Simply turn it on for a supply of water just like any other garden
tap.
Rain Saver
The Rainsaver connects your drainpipe direct to the Polybutt.
Suitable for 68mm round and 65mm square downpipes.
