envirosponsible.com This video shows how a rain barrel water diverter can be set up on any downspout. There’s only one point of access into the barrel, and that’s the hose coming from the diverter. When the barrel’s full, the water has no where else to go except up the hose and back down the downspout. If you like the way your downspout is getting rid of the water from your house then this kit will work great for you. Barrels fill very quickly. This diverter kit is a like an insurance policy, especially when you’re on vacation. There’s no way for the barrel to overflow and flood your basement while you’re gone or sleeping.
