3P Technik 9000370K Maurano Water Butt
Important Information
To fill the Maurano, we recommend using the 3P Filter Collector Universal.
The 3P Filter Collector Universal is available in 4 colours and comes with a 30cm hose.
Where the water butt cannot be located within 30cm of the downpipe, the longer Universal Long Link Kits are available online (Art. No. 9000123U to U5).
The Maurano is delivered with an accessory kit which includes a chrome tap, wall bracket, and screws.
If in any doubt during installation, please consult a professional tradesperson or the supplier of your filter or diverter.
Setting Up
Site the Maurano on a firm, level surface adjacent to a downpipe.
Refer to your Filter Collector Universal or other rain diverter instructions.
Fitting the 3P Filter Collector Universal Link Kit
Marking Out
Locate the area to form a hole for connecting the downpipe filter or diverter (see note on reverse if utilising the optional planter, These positions are ideal for all connections of 32mm (1 1/4“) or less). Mark the point.
Hole Cutter Selection – 32 mm
To fill the water butt with the recommended 3P Filter Collector Universal, select the 32mm flat bit provided with the 3P Filter Collector Universal.
Drilling
Offer the 32mm drill to your marked point, proceed to drill. If you are not fitting a 3P Filter Collector Universal, double check you are drilling the correct sized hole for your chosen connection set.
32mm Flat Bit (top) and Hosetail with Grommet and Backnut. (Included with the 3P Technik Filter Collector Universal)
Attaching a Back-Nut & Hosetail
Hold the back nut on the inside of the hole and screw on the hosetail and rubber grommet on the outside.
Connecting the Tap
Screw the 3/4” metal tap provided in the Kit into the 3/4” BSP connection thread. If necessary, use PTFE tape when installing the tap to create a more watertight seal and to allow the tap to sit in the correct position.
Fixing the Wall Bracket
Fill the tank with water before attaching the wall bracket to avoid deflection.
Fit the enclosed (optional) Wall Bracket in exposed situations
Childproof Lid
Using the screw provided, fit the childproof lid.
It is possible to connect two tanks together using the drain down points near the base. The 3P Connection Set 250mm (Art. No. 9000326) is ideal.
Winter Care Precautions
To prevent any damage from being caused, we recommend the tank is drained
completely and disconnected from the rainwater inlet during prolonged freezing
weather conditions.
