Rain barrels collect water from the roofs of homes through gutters and downspouts for use on landscaping.
“People would be surprised how quickly a rain barrel can fill up during a storm,” said Mario Remillard, water conservation coordinator for the Carlsbad Municipal Water District. “Even though we don’t get as much rain as some parts of the country, a home’s roof has a lot of surface area to gather the water and direct into a barrel for later use.”
