Thanks for asking. I choose to empty completely because in spring I prefer to have a clean, empty barrel to start the season off... see here ruclips.net/video/cbGQIRn1p-k/видео.html If there is leftover water it may develop unwanted bacterias and even with the extra space it could still crack plastic. You can choose your best practice, for me I like to get all my clean up done in fall so spring is ready to go with zero added work! Thanks for watching.

Love that concrete splash block
Thanks! It works great.
Do you have to drain completely? Can you not leave it halfway full?

3. I just purchased a new one for this coming season because I broke it accidentally bending it impatiently! Otherwise seemed to be fine.
You are a Canadian girl, how did know, the Roberson screwws
