Water butt downpipe leaf separator
This Leaf Separator removes leaves and other debris that have travelled down your downpipe before they enter your waterbutt or drainage system. It comes complete with adapters to suit 65mm square downpipes and round downpipes from 68mm to 110mm (outer dimension).
The downpipe leaf trap is easily installed at a height convenient for leaf removal from time to time - no more standing on ladders to reach the guttering. It ejects leaves, moss, twigs and other debris from the downpipe and allows the cleaned water to continue down the guttering.
This device is popular where people want to filter out leaves, moss, twigs and other larger particles before soakaways, underground pipework, drains to guard against blockages. Can also be installed before waterbutts that are fed from directly into the top of the water butt from the downpipe (like the Wall Mounted Waterbutt), so that sludge doesn't build up at the bottom of the water storage tank.
The Green Lid can be closed if required and the leaves removed.
Once cut, the downpipe simply slots into the Leaf Separator. The internal dimension of the top of the Leaf Separator is 107mm (see photo), easily fitting UK 4" downpipes. Downpipe brackets may have to be repositioned to. The UK adaptor can be fitted at the bottom of the unit to ensure a good fit with smaller downpipes too.
