Rain Barrels Help You Save Money and Conserve Water

  • Rain barrels collect and store rainwater for outdoor water use which means you’ll save money on your water bill.
  • In New England, rain barrels can save up to 1700 gallons of water during extended summer months.
  • Rain barrels reduce pollutants from entering into the water supplies by reducing runoff – which helps towns manage the water supplies and keep costs down. 
  • Rain barrels are low cost and easy to install.
