This recycled plastic rain barrel has every feature you could want in a rain catching system. The sustainably manufactured rain water barrel holds 65 gallons of water. It includes an easy to replace bug and debris screen, two over flow ports and two drain ports. The drain ports are located in a recessed area that makes filling up plant watering buckets a snap. The over flow ports enable linking of two or more barrels together easy and convenient. A 6 foot flexible hose is included with every rain barrel. This hose can be cut to length for connecting barrels in series from one downspout and as an overflow hose into a separate container or plant bed. It's easy to replace this screen if it becomes damaged, just cut a piece of window screen material in a circle and use the four screws to remove the old and replace the new. The barrel also includes one 3/4 inch brass spigot. The solid brass valve is more durable than a plastic one and will fit most common garden hoses. Best of all, this eco friendly rain water barrel is made in the USA with 100% recycled plastic. A better solution for the environment and for our economy!
