By the NumbersThis rain barrel should capture 2,500 to 5,000 litres (680 to 1300 gallons) of water during a normal season. The barrel prevents storm water from reaching catch basins and provides chlorine free water to your garden or lawn. You will save on water costs and your local municipality will save on the energy required to chlorinate, pump and treat the drinking water. Bottom Line: Using drinking water in your garden simply doesn't make sense when so many people in the world do not have access to good clean drinking water.
Harvesting HazardsWinter: Drain the barrel before the winter arrives. Water expands when it turns to ice. This is a powerful force that could damage the barrel. Just enter your email address below and we'll send you a yearly reminder to open the water valve.
