Conserve a vital natural resource How do I get rain into the rain barrel?
The easiest way to install this rain barrel is to position it under a downspout or roof flashing. A more elegant solution is to install a
WaterSaver Downspout Diverter. This prevents damage to the screen from torrential rains, and it is preferred by some Home Owner's Associations for aesthetic reasons.
You can store even more water by
linking multiple rain barrels together! Linkages also prevent one barrel from running dry while another is overflowing and they reduce the number of
downspout redirecters that are needed.
Add a Garden Watersaver Downspout to your order and we'll ship the diverter for no additional shipping charge. Please note - accessories ship from a separate location and may arrive before or after your rain barrel.
