Hi y'all, just some words of advice, I have just dismantled my diverter on
the downcoming rainwater pipe leading to the waterbutts as we are moving
house soon, and found a lot of debri that included cherry seeds etc, this
must have stopped 50% of my rainwater collection for a couple of years, *I
doubt if I would have ever looked there for problem, but it is well worth
checking along with guttering etc.
Every little helps. Mike, *Cambridgeshire Dustbowl.


You can buy a little conical filter device that fits in the downpipe
in the gutter.
