Emsco 60 Gal. Deluxe Rain Barrel with Gutter Diverter Water Collection System, Hunter Green, 2771-1 (072358277113)

Rescue Deluxe Rain Barrel

You probably learned all about it in 5th grade science class. Rain falls, evaporates, and falls again. You should get in on that action. The Rescue Deluxe Rain Barrel Rainwater Collection System invites you to connect with nature's perfect circle, harvesting pure rainwater for your home and garden. You'll also reduce your water bill by cutting out the municipal middle-man.Simply connect the Rescue Deluxe Rain Barrel to your rain gutter using the provided downspout diverter kit. Through showers or thunderstorms, your rain barrel collects the water that naturally runs off of your roof, filling up after two or three hours. Instead of running into the storm sewers, the precious water stays in your rain barrel, saved up for a sunny day.How you use your fresh, natural water is up to you. Connect a soaker hose, guiding the rain to a thirsty patch of garden. Open the valve at the bottom and fill up a bucket when it's time to wash the car, the dog, or the patio furniture. Or simply lift off the lid, dip in a watering can, and give your rainwater back to nature: water your flowers, fill up a birdbath, or add some moisture to your compost bin. Are the kids going stir-crazy, but insisting it's too hot to play outside? Head to the rain barrel, fill up the squirt guns, and enjoy a spirited water fight while practicing sustainable water usage.About Emsco GroupEmsco Group was founded in 1867, manufacturing practical and innovative things to make life better and easier.
