Does it work fine with the first barrel in this video? (FCMP outdoor)
Excellent video, thank you!!!!
I would use a level to avoid thinking it was marked as level when it wasn't.
Nobody wants to scroll down an endless list of other places this can be purchased , instead of directly from your website. What kind of stupid is that?
alot of work
start at 7:00
i don't ha a swimming pool yet!!!
People, it's a rain barrel accessory. Stop being so toxic. The link is in the title.
And, where's the link to order this?

Ok....literally scouring YT for a "How to Video" and I still don't know how to install this. We still have a Water Restriction here in YYC. Plans on creating a video with step by step instructions this time, with less distracting music?
@@kath6546 see our videos on rainbarrel.ca/bestdownspoutdiverter/ or this channel at ruclips.net/video/If8Rr9qDLwM/видео.htmlsi=oeFordzf-3JLFqnr
I have this diverter and it works very well with a brilliantly thought out design.
Thank you for your kind comment. We are thrilled to hear that our product is performing as designed and that is lives up to the goal of being the BEST downspout diverter you will ever own.
Just wondering why the diverter must be perfectly level with the overflow hose to work in the 2nd scenario you've described above. Can the diverter be placed anywhere above the overflow location for it to work properly or am I missing something?
If the diverter side outlet is placed higher, it will continue directing water to the barrel until the water level in the barrel is equal to the water level in the diverter. If you have a barrel with an opening in the lid or a solid removable lid, water could begin flowing out the top or between the barrel and the lid before it begins rising in the diverter and flowing out into the lower downspout. If the diverter outlet is perfectly level with the overflow outlet (which is being used as an inlet) water will rise to an equal height in the barrel and diverter and overflow into the lower downspout before it reaches the top of the barrel lid.
@@BestDownspoutDiverter Ah ok. Makes sense now.
If the diverter is installed above a barrel, it will constantly direct water to the barrel, even when the barrel is full. If the diverter outlet is installed at the same height as the inlet on the barrel, then when the barrel is full, water rises in the diverter and flows out and into the lower downspout and away from your home.
How difficult is the spigot to open? I'm concerned that elderly folk will find it very difficult to open, particularly those with arthritis. Also, what is the flow rate of the spigot?
Here in Texas we don’t worry about basement flooding and in fact we water our foundations to avoid ground movement which affects our homes-
Some homes are built on floating slabs and do not have basements, similar to garages and sheds. If a barrel overflows under these circumstances, there may not be any consequences such as leaky basements. In this case a diverter may not be necessary. In addition to preventing excessive overflow at the rain barrel, our diverter simplifies the process of winterizing a rain barrel as it can remain in place all year long, even when temperatures fall below freezing. Leaving it in place eliminates the need to reattach cut downspouts after the rain barrel is disconnected for winter.
My barrel can’t be placed close to the downspout, it’ll be further away and a little bit lower. If the barrel is sealed (water tight inlet, water tight outlet) can the downspout output be a foot or two higher than the barrel inlet? Would overflow back up from the barrel all the way back to the diverter before heading down the downspout?
Please let us know if you need assistance
If you have a closed or sealed system without any possibility of water leaking out, then you can install the diverter at a higher level where the diverter side outlet is higher than the inlet on the barrel. This however holds more water in the hose, adding weight to the hose and additionally stressing the hose and connectors on the diverter. You may find that you need gear clamps or mechanic's clamps to keep the hose secured at both ends. Shorter, horizontal hoses minimize the water weight and reduce stress on the diverter and hoses.
The diverter body mold was updated prior to June 9th, 2024 to simplify the gasket requirements. Each cap plug includes a gasket that can be removed once the plug is separated from the cap and reused after an outlet is inserted into the cap. This eliminates the requirement for two gaskets per outlet.
Can i order a filter if i got a kit last year?
Yes. Find your best option at rainbarrel.ca/
We think you mean you got last year's model of diverter. Please send a photo to team@rainbarrel.ca to confirm
Filter screens that connect to the waterslide were recently added to capture larger debris before it enters the diverter well. They are included with each new diverter purchased, but we do not currently have these filters available for sale on their own. We will have them available before the 2025 season begins. Filter screens may require more frequent maintenance. If they become clogged with debris, they can create a blockage and prevent water from passing through the diverter. If you plan to make use of the filter screen, be prepared to inspect it especially after each heavy rainfall.
Does the diverter include the barrel connection fitting or is that extra?
Two diverter hoses are included. You can see all the details of the diverter in the video as well as on our web page. rainbarrel.ca/bestdownspoutdiverter/
The diverter includes the hose but not the black piece that attaches to the barrel. It should be included rather than having to order it separately once you find out it is needed.
The t-adapter is a standard piece included with our rain barrels.
Our diverter is designed to connect to 1.5 inch outlets or inlets. If your barrel does not have this size of connector, options include: 1) finding an adaptor at your local hardware or plumbing store that transitions from a 1.5 inch barbed end to whatever size barbed end your rain barrel requires, or 2) drilling a 1 7/8 inch hole in your barrel and insert our T-shaped overflow adaptor. Be sure to leave enough space between the top of the adaptor and the top of the barrel to allow water to rise in the barrel at least as much as it needs to rise into the diverter before overflowing into the lower downspout.
@@RainBarrelCaIs the T adapter forced into the rain barrel?
Excellent clear presentation with very helpful information, thank you! Do you have a link to the diverter that you used?

Bro, why are you not on amazon? I will NOT sort through a list of partner websites that don't even allow me to buy your product because it's not in stock near me. Come on, get your distribution fixed. You got this.
rainbarrel.ca/bestdownspoutdiverter
Partner website? It's sold directly from their website in the title. Amazon is a trash company run by a billionairre that abuses its employees. I'm glad it's not on Amazon.
I am also looking for a detailed installation video. If anyone has found one can you kindly post a link? Thanks
do you live in canada. how were you able to purchase one. i live in texas.
@@ethanolive6998rainbarrel.ca/
your website is garbage
I was able to install this easily . The instructions ,even though very elaborate, are a bit confusing
I wish you guys had a more detailed instruction video for newbies like me. If would be a huge help if you picked the most common type of downspout situation and showed us how to set this up with a kit you sell - for example, the "2 barrels + 1 diverter" set. I can't find any setup videos for this particular type of diverter, only the older styles on your channel from about 10yrs ago...
This is why I came here. I’d like to see his installation looks before I buy.

Yeah
Looks like a great opportunity for my daughter's baseball league!
you guys really need to include a link to your website

Hi, where can I get parts for my rain barrel? The ring with the net tore.
No link, website is super hard to find. Once found it's only available for pre order. Need to do better before put on youtube.
i think i found the website but it says sold out. did you ever get one
Literally in the title
Could it be mounted on a Camaro
@pppppppf Yes, providing the exhaust pipe is at least 2x3
HAHAHA, thanks! I needed a good laugh this morning!
great tutorial, instructions were clear, and simple, not complicated or too technical, visual instructions are also great, esoecially for us visual learners. I am more confident installing my rain barrel after viewing this video than the many others I have viewed.
When i installed the spigots in my rain barrels they leaked so i got 2 brass rain barrel spigots from home hardware.
Also hows the overflow supposed to work the water in one of my barrels is above the overflow.
You need add instructions for connecting the downspout to the barrel.
Can you redo the video in a higher quality, particularly on how to install the downspout diverter?
Thanks for the suggestion. On our "to do" list!
Did you ever create a new video? A proper install video is needed by many.
How do you remove the end to connect barrels in parallel? It doesn't seem to screw or pop off. "Remove" is a vague term when it's not obvious. I don't want to take a saw or drill to it and ruin it.
You had the right idea! Use a saw to cut off the closed end or drill into it. You may wish to file the edges to make them smooth.Leah[at]RainBarrel.ca
@@leahpomerantz Thank you.
What a great idea!!!
Can you connect more than two barrels (of the first type in this video) together in a series?
Yes. You can add as many as you like
Do you have a video explaining how the diverter works? Thanks!
We can help you if you reach us on rainbarrel.ca/contact/ Please scroll to the bottom to fill out the form.
turn off the MUSIC !!!! can't even hear the guy! WHo made this and let it pass as a instructional video!
I just received a rain barrel. The hole of overflow is 2 inch and the T- shaped adaptor is 1 and 7/8 inch. The hole is too big. How can I install it? Is there someone Who can teach me?
Hi Mary. With hundreds of thousands of barrels sold, we've never heard of this! We definitely want to help you out. Please reach us on our website comment form! Thank you
When I was about to install the T-shaped adaptor in the overflow hole of the rain barrels that I bought I ran a bead of silicone around the end of the adaptor before I inserted in the overflow hole. So, even if the overflow hole is a little to big the silicone will seal it up.
The video switches to a different rain barrel type when connecting the downspout diverter. So...how do you connect the downspout diverter to an open top (screened) rain barrel? Is there a video for that?
There isn't a video yet. On the side of the downspout diverter is a large cap that you can unscrew and replace with an outlet. Attach the diverter hose to that outlet and the other end of the diverter hose to the t-shaped adapter that fits in the upper side of the barrel. Please use our contact form on our website if you have additional questions. Thank you
The downspout diverter connects to all barrels the same way.
Thank you, just got my rain barrel
do leafs get clogged in the diverter? how to clean the system from leafs
Leaves generally get washed out with the rushing water just like the downspout itself.
This is awesome
Our County Sustainability Group in Prince Edward County has been partners with the good people at Rainbarrel.ca for the past 10 years and would recommend them to anyone wanting to fundraise for their not for profit group. We’ve been able to raise funds to support 2 bursaries . One for students graduating from our local high school going on to Environmental studies, and another for local organic farmers here in The County. Nothing but good things to say about working on this annual event with them.
It is very informative. Thank you
How to open the closed overflow? Like cut it? You said pop it open but it does not pop for me, it is too tight. Please help?
We ended up drilling through it
Yes it wasn’t clear I tried unscrewing it but it’s part of the entire tool no detachment option. Should have clarified in the video.
Anything on what to do if there is no downspout? My house is designed to have the water fall the full distance to the ground from eaves-trough extensions. Anything on collecting water in free-fall?
Hi Robert! We are sorry that we have not expanded to that level of harvesting. Our understanding is people use tarps or some other funneling to gather water to enter into rain barrels.
Ok I just bought the barrel but I need to know what size the opening is on the barrel to fit the T shaped overflow snugly to my existing barrel . This info didn't seem to be in the video or on the website.
