Every time it rains, your collected rainwater can be put to good use—in the garden, on the lawn, or in washing your vehicles or pets. Rainwater is so soft; you can wash your clothes with it. It’s slightly acidic and free of elements such as chlorine, fluoride, salts, and other minerals that tap water contains. And in cases of emergency, once you boil it, you can even use it for drinking.
Up to 40% of domestic water consumption is due to residential irrigation. The Spruce Creek Rainsaver rain barrel changes all that. You can collect rainwater efficiently for all of your outdoor watering and cleaning needs—maybe even reducing that percentage to zero.
Here’s what the Spruce Creek Rainsaver rain barrel can do:
- Holds up to54 gallons of water for garden and outdoor use
- Captures fresh, untreated water otherwise lost to runoff
- Stores water at a comfortable temperature, reducing shock to plant roots
- Keeps a free supply of fresh water readily available for all your outdoor water needs
- Prevents waste of energy and money on water purification
- Reduces water bills, depending on how much rainwater you collect
- Lowers electricity costs of running sump pumps
- Reduces runoff and helps prevent water pollution
- Draws upon your own resources, rather than taxing municipal water supplies
