The Great American Rain Barrel™ is made from recycled 60 gallon olive drums which are among the largest capacity rain barrels available today. A 60 gallon rain barrel can fill with less than ¼ “of rainfall (depending on the size of your roof and gutter system). Rain barrels can go a long way in offsetting your domestic water needs.
About The Design
The Great American Rain Barrel™ Signature holds a total of 60 gallons of rain water. The exterior of the barrel is steel gray and contains character usage marks due to the prior usage for olive shipments. This naturally distressed design is visible after the buffing and painting process. The smooth interior of each barrel discourages the build-up of algae and bacteria while the one piece design deters pets and wildlife from gaining access. The barrel comes with a threaded spigot positioned 14” from ground level. Simply flip open the spigot and the natural flow of gravity provides pressure for watering flower gardens or washing your car. The cover contains drainage holes and screws on to the barrel to ensure a snug fit and is sturdy enough to display your favorite river stones for an added decorating touch.
About The Materials
Each UV protected polyethylene rain barrel is remanufactured and assembled in the USA from a recycled shipping barrel that stands 39" tall by 24" wide and weighs 20 lbs. empty. High quality polyethylene is an extremely durable plastic that is ideal for outdoor products because of its resistance to fading and longevity. Polyethylene is not considered biodegradable, as it takes several centuries until it is efficiently degraded. The reuse of polyethylene containers for Great American Rain Barrels™ Trio System is an ecologically wise alternative.
