Collecting and reusing rainwater has never been more important. Climate change has produced spells of heavy rain followed by long periods with very little rain at all. The hot dry summer months are problematic for keen gardeners; their need for water rises when mains water use is most restricted.
This Ecosure Easy Connect above ground rainwater harvesting system is, as its name suggests, easy to set up. Whilst avoiding the installation costs associated with underground systems, it reduces dependence on chemically treated mains water and provides instant access to the naturally soft rainwater plants love. It comes with everything you need for a basic rain harvesting setup. The Guttermate Diverter collects filtered rainwater and acts as an overflow once the tank is full. The easily installed wall mounted tap bracket provides access to the stored water via a connection to the Hydroforce amphibious pump. The pump can either be installed inside the tank for a discreet setup, or installed externally, allowing easy access for maintenance. Once installed, simply turn the tap on and use the natural rainwater you have collected anywhere in your garden.
This system is available with a range of UK designed and manufactured tanks of all shapes and sizes. If you can't see the tank you want listed, just call and ask. The pump is UK made too.
