Great American 60-Gallon Forest Green Recycled Plastic Painted Rain Barrel

Rain happens. Rain is free. A 60 gallon rain barrel can fill in less than .25-inches of rainfall (depending on the size of your roof and gutter system). Rain barrels can go a long way in offsetting your domestic water needs: including gardening car washing and pool topping. In turn the burden on the local water system or your well will diminish and ultimately save you money. Collecting rain water has become as typical as recycling bottles cans newspapers and composting. Link two or three barrels together and you can save up to 180 gallons of precious rain water.The Great American Rain Barrel is built to be extremely durable with a wall thickness of 3/16"""" resulting in a rigid heavy duty rain barrel that will last virtually forever. Each UV protected polyethylene rain barrel is manufactured in the USA from a recycled shipping barrel that stands 39-inches tall by 24-inches wide and weighs 20 lbs. empty. The barrel comes complete with overflow fitting drain plug and screw on cover. You can also choose an optional spigot and have it positioned 4 or 14 inches off the ground. Attach your garden hose to the spigot and water your garden or lawn even wash your car. We suggest raising the barrel for use with a regular garden hose as it's gravity fed. Our rain barrel arrives with simple instructions for fast and easy installation.How to Link Barrels TogetherTo save even more water you can link your first barrel to a second using a (shorter) piece of 3/4"""" hose. Simply unscrew the upper plug (on the second barrel) and replace it with a second elbow. Attach one end of your hose to the overflow fitting (on barrel one) turning the fitting so that it is horizontal and then attach it to the other end to the new elbow on the second barrel (which should also be turned horizontally). Attach your overflow hose to the second elbow (on barrel two) so that once that barrel has filled you can direct excess water away from the foundation. We recommend keeping barrels close together for best
