Product Description

When drought sets in and rain is short, rain barrels can provide that precious water you need for your lawn and garden. The Rain Wizard 40 can provide up to 40 gallons of pure, unchlorinated water when municipalities declare periods of low water usage. During heavy rain falls, a typical roof can produce hundreds of gallons of water. By saving that water, you can reduce your average water usage by up to 40%. With those kinds of savings, the Rain Wizard 40 can pay for itself in just a few seasons. The Rain Wizard 40 features an attractive faux oak barrel design so it naturally fits in with your landscape. And the wide variety of colors allows you to even further match your barrel to your home and yard without standing out. Its plastic screen mesh is newly designed to keep out bugs, animals, and debris while still being easy to remove for cleaning and maintenance and is gentle on skin. A front side overflow keeps water from flooding against your outside wall. The flat-back design is one of the most convenient features as it allows your barrel to sit right up against your home so you don't have to worry about purchasing excess downspout parts. These barrels are tough. While most barrels will crack or become brittle in the winter time, the Rain Wizard 40 will stay strong. It is still recommended that you drain your barrels when temperatures approach the freezing point. And if you're looking for the best deal for the planet, be sure to get a Black Rain Wizard 40; These barrels are made of 100% recycled resin. Don't forget, you can increase your storage and savings with the Rain Wizard connector kit (don't worry, it works with nearly all Rain Wizard models). Or boost your pressure and make room for buckets with the Rain Wizard Stand

46 customers mention20 positive26 negative

Customers have mixed opinions about the leakage of the rain barrel. Some mention that the water is retained and can either drain it off for use or just collect run off water from the gutter. They really love the ability to water the flower bed with saved water, which saves on the water bill. Others say that the overflowing water runs out and down the front of the barrel, and that the bottom never drains properly. This means that barely a trickle comes out, and customers have to tilt and prop up the barrel.

"Very nice container, but fills up quick in a heavy storm. I replace the spicket with a higher flow rate to discharge rain water." Read more

"...Sure saves on the water bill !" Read more

"...So yes, overflow will exit the cutout on the top front of the barrel spilling down the front. Connect a hose to it...." Read more

"...Now the water is retained and I can either drain it off for use or just leave it open to a hose to deplete when not needed...." Read more

9 customers mention6 positive3 negative

Customers have mixed opinions about the water resistance of the rain barrel. Some mention that it's a good rain barrel, while others say that heavy rain overflows the top and washes the soil out. Some customers also mention that the inside of the barrel was wet when the box arrived.

"Good rain barrel, nothing particularly special." Read more

"Good in theory. Heavy rain overflows the top, washed the soil out. Modified it to put the downspout directly into the barrel...." Read more

"Great rain barrels. Now buying some for family" Read more

"Great rain barrel. Looks great next to the house. Easy to set up. Looking into gerting another one soon." Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Be sure water can drain away from your foundation.
Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2018
Excellent barrel. Just installed this with a diverter as shown in my pic here. I highly recommend the diverter so you can divert water to the regular downspout during winter. Also, when there is heavy rain you can divert a slower amount into the barrel so it doesn't overwhelm the screen. The screen is meant to keep mosquitos out so it doesn't allow a lot of water to enter the barrel without overflowing the top of the barrel. I plan on just using my regular downspout when there will be heavy rain. If you don't use the diverter just make sure the ground around the barrel will drain excess water away from your foundation. Since my ground does slope away a little bit I didn't bother attaching an overflow drain. I will just let the overflow drain down the barrel's front overflow screen.

Update: I've had this barrel since 2/2018 and have had no issues however, I highly recommend you change out the spigot. I installed a full flow ball valve recently and now the water flows out faster when the water level is low. It's also easier than having to twist the valve handle with the spigot that comes with the barrel. The ball valve is a quick on and off lever that you can throttle too.
