Linking Hose
Pick-up will be Wednesday, October 28th only from 12PM through 6PM at the NEW WCCD office in the front parking lot (705 N. Zeeb Rd, Ann Arbor 48103).
Please do not order a rain barrel if you cannot pick up at this this time. We are having the barrels delivered to the front lot just for this pick up date and do not have a location to store barrels overnight safely. If you cannot pick up, please send someone else in your place. A barrel will fit easily in the back of a sedan.
Used for attaching multiple barrels together with the linking fitting toward the bottom end of the barrel directly below the overflow fitting.
This allows you to modify only one downspout from the roof in any given location around the home or building and have increased storage capacity.
Simply remove the cap from the two linking fittings, thread the linking hose to the two linking fittings and the barrels are now joined. No tools required.
The barrel taking the water from the roof then shares with the rest of the barrels that are linked together with the linking hose. All barrels fill equally and then empty equally.
Some increase in pressure will be realized. However, the main advantage is increased capacity.
