High Capacity Water Butt

The Metropolitan Just Water - water butt the latest addition to this exceptionally popular Ecosure range. The Metropolitan's large water reservoir will collect lots of precious rainwater for your plants. Manufactured from virgin, fully recyclable polymer, it is completely frost-proof - and the latest UV stabilisation technology means the colour does not fade. Brass inserts are pre-moulded into the tank, making the fitting of your free tap and drain valve easy. All you need to do is position the Metro on a solid base, fit the free rainwater diverter and you are ready to go.

Do I need a Filter Diverter?

The standard rainwater diverter is included in the package - and works efficiently. If the water from your roof contains debris (like leaves, twigs, moss, pine needles), we would recommend that you upgrade to the Filter Diverter, which catches the debris in a small, easy to clean basket, allowing you to collect clean rainwater.

How do I collect rainwater ?

To collect rainwater, you will need a water butt connected to a downpipe via rainwater diverter.

What are your water butts made of?

All Ecosure water butts are manufactured from high quality Medium Density Polythylene (MDPE). This strong durable material is weather and impact resistant.

How do I install rainwater diverter?

You can install a diverter anywhere on our water butts. We would recommend near the top but not too near the corners

Can they be installed underground?

We manufacture a range of water tanks specifically design to be installed underground. Available in non-potable and potable versions.

How do I get the rainwater out?

Each water butt has brass outlet moulded into them during the manufacturing process. This outlet can be used to attached a tap or shut off valve.
