Water your plants and gardens with natural rain. Your plants will love you for it and best of all, it's free.
The amount of rainwater you will collect is going to determine your collection area. The roof of your home or garden shed will be the most practical areas to catch and collect rain. Measure the outside of your home including the overhang. This will give you the approximate area for collecting rain. For eample an area of 1,000 square feet you can collect approximately 600 gallons for every 1 inch of rainfall. The Carolina Rain Barrel comes in a kit with complete instructions or fully assembled and ready to connect to your downspout.
The Carolina Rain Barrel is made from recycled material and has an approximate 60 gallon capacity. Its opening head allows for easy cleaning and includes a safety locking band to seal the barrel. You will have a fitting in order to link to another barrel and overflow connector for attaching your garden hose for overflow.
