Aquabarrel Unveils New Rain Barrel Product

Aquabarrel's new product allows homeowners from previously overlooked market segments to discover the benefits of using DIY rain barrels.

GAITHERSBURG, MD, July 08, 2012

Aquabarrel recently announced the launch of a new product: the Complete DIY Rain Barrel Parts Kit for Round Downspouts. The product will allow homeowners from previously overlooked market segments to discover the benefits of using DIY rain barrels.

The Complete DIY Rain Barrel Parts Kit for Round Downspouts grants homeowners the ability to transform any watertight container into an eco-friendly rain barrel. According to Aquabarrel founder Barry Chenkin, "Aquabarrel and its manufacturing partner found that a substantial part of the market was not being addressed - especially in older cities such as Philadelphia and D.C., where urban homes have round downspouts for gutter systems." With Chenkin's product development input, they created a DIY rain barrel parts kit that caters to homeowners with round downspouts.

Aquabarrel is a microbusiness whose mission is to promote water conservation through the use of rain barrels. Today, Aquabarrel continues to drive the "green" revolution by offering an array of rain barrel products, including above ground cisterns, downspout diverters, downspout filters, and of course, the rain barrel itself. In addition to offering rain barrel products and accessories directly to consumers, Aquabarrel is always interested in partnering with municipalities and organizations in order to foster better water management at large.
