Rain barrels area a great way to reduce your public water consumption, especially in the summer months. Rain barrels are connected to the downspouts of your gutter systems and collect the rain water that would usually flow out and away from your home. The water is stored in the barrel and you can use it for your outdoor watering needs like filling up watering cans or connecting it to a hose to water your pots and gardens. Using a rain barrel is great because you are using water that is free and you do not need to use water from the tap. This water should not be used for drinking unless you have purchased one that has a filtration system for this use. Below is one that is nice looking and is installed.
