GATE VALVE DOWNSPOUT DIVERTER FOR RAINWATER COLLECTION
A downspout diverter for rainwater collection that is installed through a hole in the wall of a downspout and functions as a gate valve by redirecting the flow of water from a pan-like Interior gate through a fitted bushing and exterior hose spout. The gate can be turned from its horizontal capture position to its vertical non-capture position by rotating the bushing. It is easy to install and remove without disconnecting the downspout, and its small size and accessory plug effect a finished appearance to the downspout.
Diverter and lid assembly for use with a rain barrel device and system
A diverter for a rain barrel includes a scoop portion configured to fit within a gutter downspout, a rain barrel fitting portion configured to fluidly attach the scoop portion to the rain barrel, and a wing extending outwardly from the scoop portion to direct a flow of water in the gutter downspout towards the scoop portion.
