Saving water

What to do

• There are two ways to fit a water butt. The easiest way is to sever a plastic down pipe with a hacksaw and place the butt directly underneath it – an overflow pipe can be attached to the butt to channel away excess water to a drain or into an additional butt.
• Alternatively, cut a notch out of the pipe and fit a rain trap and connecting pipe - this will transport water to your butt and allows you to put it in the most convenient place.
