Looking for a great way to reduce the
amount of water you use? Want to save
money on your water bill and help the
environment? EcoSuperior invites you
to consider a rain barrel to capture
run-off from your rooftop for use in
your garden. It’s easily installed
and a simple, inexpensive way to meet
your outdoor water needs.
On average, Thunder Bay receives 53.5
cm of rain annually, and when you consider
an average roof size of 1000 square
feet, this adds up to more than 50,000
litres of water FREE for lawn and garden
irrigation!
Why water plants with with costly drinking
water? Install a rain barrel and you’ll
be giving your plants non-chlorinated
soft rainwater at just the right temperature.
It’s guilt-free watering...economical
and environmental. Rain barrels also
help reduce the load on storm sewers
and wastewater treatment facilities,
and help reduce peak water demands in
hot summer months.
