Compact Rain Barrel Diverter Kit for 2x3 Downspout

The DIY rain barrel diverter and parts kit for 2x3-inch downspouts is a state-of-the-art water collection system that allows you to convert any barrel or container into a rain barrel in minutes. This comprehensive kit fits standard 2x3 inch rectangular downspouts and works with plastic barrels, wooden barrels, and garbage cans. (Note: It is not suitable for circular downspouts or metal drums.)

The key components of this kit include a downspout diverter, winter cover, screws, a 31-inch fill hose, a hose seal, hole saws, and an instruction manual. The diverter head is flexible and rubber-coated, allowing for easy insertion into the downspout with a simple hole, without the need to cut the downspout.

One of the primary benefits of this rain barrel diverter system is its ability to reduce overflow. The diverter regulates the amount of water entering the rain barrel, ensuring a consistent water level. Once the water reaches the height of the diverter, the excess flow continues down the downspout, eliminating the need for a separate overflow hose.

Additionally, the diverter helps to store cleaner rainwater. Without a diverter, debris can flow directly into the top of the rain barrel, but with the diverter in place, the debris continues to flow down the downspout, leaving the collected water cleaner and more suitable for irrigation and other outdoor uses.

The kit includes all the necessary parts to convert any barrel into a rain barrel, including the free small hole saw for drilling the hole for the spigot (spigot not included). This complete package ensures that you have everything you need to set up your rain barrel system quickly and easily.

When the rain barrel is not in use during the winter months, you can remove the diverter from the downspout and install the provided winter cover, protecting the system from the elements.

With this rain barrel diverter kit, you can start capturing and storing rainwater for a variety of outdoor tasks, such as watering flowers, plants, lawns, and landscaping. This approach to water conservation allows you to save water and reduce your water bills, making it an effective and environmentally-friendly solution.

By purchasing this complete kit, you can ensure that all your rain barrel needs are met, from the initial setup to the winter storage and everything in between. Whether you're a seasoned DIY enthusiast or new to rain barrel systems, this kit provides a hassle-free way to start collecting and using rainwater around your home or property.
