If you have the room you can daisy chain the butts and we currently have 2 extra butts waiting to be linked on to the garage butt. We have buried the butt next to the conservatory so that it it less of an eye sore and we are considering adding another next to it. The run off into the borders when it rains ensures that the ground that is shielded from a decent drenching when it rains gets a good watering and with the ground being damp we don't need to water as soon as the dry spells hit.
