ROLSON DOWN PIPE RAIN WATER DIVERTER 60682

Unlike many other diverters, this unit does not need to be at the same level as the water butt/container and gives flexibility with the closing tap to regulate flow and terminate. It is well made. However, the outlet is short (as per illustration) and if needing to fit an extension pipe, rather than water gushing out of the bottom, there is no thread or flange - hot glue/duct tape on standard flexible diverter plastic pipe will fit inside! The main problem is the house downpipe dimension - MOST domestic downpipes are (according to local pipe suppliers and builders) 68mm. This unit will not fit (much too big) and apparently, only Marley pipes have these dimensions. They do not manufacture reducers to convert either. The box says "fits most household downpipes" and I had assumed it would fit ours which are the same dimension as all others in the area. Check the dimensions of your downpipe against those given in advert or you will be left with a useless piece of plastic as I have.

we just had our down pipe cut so the water just flows into our water butt but found that during wet days the butt would over flow and has made our wall wet and very damp inside so this will save any further problems, Thanks

Not very good, doesn't fit very well, bit disappointing to be honest

This was far too big for my drain pipe and I measured it before purchasing! Complete waste of money.

Ordered because this is the only unit that fits our downpipes, sturdy construction and easy to fit. Only wish they delivered to Italy. We have to order it when friend/family are coming over to get it. Hopefully we are set up now so won't need another one

Easy to fit , and works perfectly.

Works well a cheap & effective tool just what I needed

Superb - direct delivery into my rainwater tank.
