www.durgan.org/URL/?Rainwater Utilizing Rainwater Downspout Rainwater Pictures indicating a simple, practical method of utilizing downspout rainwater. Barrels cost 15 dollars and all parts and tools are readily available. Any urban downspout system must address the overflow problem during rainfall. The large bung hole is a reasonable compromise for overflow. The height is such that a hose may be utilized for watering plants. The system is readily expandable. I have four barrels, two on each side of the house. www.durgan.org/URL/?Downspout Downspout Water Connection The downspout water system was switched over to Summer mode by connecting the downspout to the storage barrels.
