Rainwater Harvesting

Rainbarrels

Did you know:

  • A 1 inch rainstorm on a 1000 square foot roof produces over 600 gallons of water
  • Most storms are 1/2 inch or less.
  • Four rain barrels would capture over 70% of the water in your gutters from these smaller storm events
  • Rain barrels reduce the amount of stormwater leaving your property.
  • If used to water plants, it provides fresh ambient temperature water and saves money.
