Why Save Rain WaterOnly ¼ inch of rain is needed to fill a 60 gallon barrel. Sixty gallons can cover about 100 square feet with 1 inch of water. This can go along way in offsetting garden needs in the spring and summer months when water consumption increases anywhere between 20 and 200%. Capturing rain water in a barrel before it hits the ground decreases stormwater runoff which otherwise carries pollutants from paved surfaces into groundwater and rivers.

Installation GuidelinesTools needed: a hacksaw & measuring tapeDiverter attaches easily to gutter downspout Draw a line on the downspout approximately 9 inches above the top of the rain barrelMove the barrel awayUse a hacksaw and cut the downspout at the line or markingNote: if a downspout bracket is below your cut remove the bracket and place it above the cutAttach diverter and set angleThe diverter is designed so that you can crimp the sides of the downspouts to fit the diverterDone!
