Going Green
The two main drivers for a rainbarrel market are conservation and chemical free water for plants.
Plants simply are much healthier if the water source is rain water, especially if it's rich with oxygen. Gardeners have always known the chemicals added at treatment plants to make it safe for drinking are not desirable for plants.
Water conservation is just starting to gain momentum, but this momentum is increasing quickly. Water management agencies are becoming more vocal about supply of ground water, and water entering city sewers, lakes, and rivers.
When it rains roof water collects pollution as it runs down the street to the storm sewers. Consequently, this beautiful, chemical free, naturally soft water contributes to pollution in our rivers and lakes.
Why Buy Our Rainbarrel
- Good quality plastic barrel. We add a metal spicket and overflow. Most barrels are plumed with plastic components. They break quickly and easily. A screen covering the entrance hole keeps insects and debris out.
- Decorative enclosure. Made with cedar wood and aluminum. Fact: Most barrels are so unattractive that people don't want them in their front yard. Only the very committed to the concept will buy barrels and they will do their best to hide them. The barrels we make are attractive enough to become conversation pieces in the front yard or anywhere. Building GREEN has become the trend.
- Add decorative and functional hand pump. Looks great and allows for rain water to be carried to different locations, such as indoor plants.
- Oxygenator. An oxygen pump will fully saturate water with oxygen in fifteen to twenty minutes. Plants like the extra molecule of oxygen. It attacks fungus on the roots and helps them grow.
- Because we are a gutter business, we make the installation of barrels look professional.
- We are just great to work with!
