TOP STYLES - Removable Canale |
|
| |
The removable 'CANALE' top - pronounced "ca-nal-lee", is designed to capture free-falling rain water from your flat roofed home. Notice the top is very open to capture as much falling water as possible, yet safe enough around children to comply with the regulations of the City of Santa Fe. It is this combination of safety and large collection surface that makes it unique. |
|
|
The large collection area is necessary because falling water "spreads out" as it falls. It occupies a much larger area after it falls six to eight feet, thus if the top is not properly designed, it will cause the falling water to splash excessively. |
|
The CANALE top is available in either the "Pie Shaped" pattern (some customers also call it the "Wagon Wheel' pattern), or the very popular "Polka Dot" pattern. Both are the same price and equally efficient so pick the one you like the best. The straining material is common door screen which keeps the barrel mosquito resistant, yet allows good water flow. It is attached using staples on the underside and can be easily and cheaply replaced at home. While this style is best with falling water, it also works very well with downspouts and Rain Chains.
This top is available on both our Agua Fria Series and Cubo Series. |

|
|
On our most popular rain barrels, the Agua Fria Series, this top is securely held to the main barrel body by (4) sets of embedded Aluminum threaded inserts, Stainless Steel set screws, and Phenolic/Brass 3-arm knobs.On our Cubo Series, this top is securely held to the main barrel body by 4 sets of embedded Aluminum threaded inserts, Black Steel set screws, and Zinc-plated wing nuts |

| The Canale Top works best handling falling water from a flat roofed home, although it can also be used under a downspout or with rain chains. The Canale Top is available in a Pie Shaped pattern and a Polka Dot style. Both are equally efficient. |
