What are the benefits to using rain barrels?
• Rain barrel-gathered water is not subject to community watering restrictions. • Naturally soft water with no additives to irritate your plants. • Save money on your water bill. • Reduce water pollution in our rivers and lakes by reducing stormwater runoff. • Save money on your sewage treatment bill by decreasing the amount of water going into the sewer system. • Decrease energy consumption used to treat waste water and delay building/expanding waste-water treatment plants.
