I just searched and it seems the last thread on rain barrels was in 2008. They've become more popular since then and there now seems to be an infinite variety on the market.
I would like to install one to collect water from a downspout on the rear of the house. This would allow us to refill our (new) small water garden / goldfish pond without using a dechlorinator as well as potentially water the herbs and veggies planted out there.
I am looking for advice on what features to look for (or avoid) on barrels and information on how to install one. I would like to do it myself but if not would probably need to advise handyman on how to.
Thanks in advance!
