If you’re looking to harvest rainwater from your cultivar greenhouse then we have options. All our greenhouses come complete with rainwater goods which include strong aluminium guttering and neat aluminium downpipes. The downpipe external diameter is 40mm which is a common size, this means that proprietary push fit fittings from the likes of Marley and FloPlast are readily available online, at your local B and Q or plumbing merchants. So if you have a need to send the water from your gutters to a particular area this can be readily achieved.
That said we are yet to find a rainwater adaptor suited to this common pipe size. Most seem to be produced to harvest water from large house downpipes. We have however found a 50mm diverter from floPlast which we can get to work with our downpipe. We do this by 3D printing a collar to bring it to the right size. So if you’d like to add one of these to your order prior to installation then let us know. If you have your waterbutt in position ready on site when our fitting team are there to assemble your greenhouse they can hook this up for you. If you already have a cultivar greenhouse then we will likely have stock and we can put one in the post. Why not watch our video to see how this works.
