Garden Tool Buyer's Resource

Rain water is a thing that many don’t realize can be saved and used for many different things. Think about it – rain water that falls off your roof typically just goes to waste. However, you can do something about it. By purchasing a Rain Water Diverter, you can channel the rain into a rain barrel, or reroute the rain water to anything else you feel might need watering, such as plants, ponds, areas of the lawn that don’t receive enough sun and even fountain basins.

A nice feature to this rain water diverter is that it can be flipped between on and off positions, meaning you can really regulate how and when you use the water. In addition, you can use it to prevent runoff and the erosion that occurs with it. Basically, it’s a way to preserve the sanctity of your lawn or garden and conserve and reuse a natural resource while doing so.

This manual water pump works quickly and efficiently. Even if you were on a sinking ship, you would want to have one of these babies aboard. It can crank out 40 to 90 gallons of water per minute, and sets up quickly as well. You don’t need any priming, and there’s no starter plug or spark plugs. Plus, it moves high volumes of water at low RPMs.

Think about this manual water pump, and then think about cleaning out a rain barrel. You could accomplish the task in no time. This can help you a lot also when you are gardening or doing lawn work in places that might be hard to reach when using a traditional water pump…forget about extra extension cords, ventilation or anything of the like. Just some natural power from your arm, and you are good to go. Truly a great find.

Finally – someone has made a rain barrel that can really look great on the side of your house. This Rain Barrel is made to look like an old fashioned oak barrel. You can sit it on the side of the house nicely and catch any rain water that may fall. Made of plastic, this barrel blocks any light out – so you don’t have to worry about moisture, algae, and bacteria growing.

If you are looking to upgrade your rain barrel and add a touch of style and class to your lawn, then this is right up your alley. It will nicely sit out of the way, and will prove to be beneficial in the long run.
