        Why Tops Are Important

Barrel placement can be critical, so make sure you understand how it will "work". Our tops do not require you to direct the down-spout toward an inlet. This means that our rain barrels will not have to "stick out" from a corner or that you'll have to invest time and money to redirect the downspout.

1.

 Because shallow sloping tops allow the rushing water to over-run the inlet and actually fall off the other side, we have designed a vertical wall around our top's perimeter to help capture any stray water and redirect it back into the barrel.
2.
 Small inlets choke on too much water so we designed large ones.
3.
 A lot of rain water can be lost as falling water from a flat-roofed house hits the barrel top, we so designed the "Canale top", a large screened surface area to minimize it.
4.
 Notice how easily our tops can be cleaned.
