News from the inventor of the rain barrel
Back in the 1980s, we were already ahead of our time: the classic rain barrel that everyone knows today was in fact invented by Speidel. The further development is the rain column.

How to set up your
rainwater column tank
Here you can see how to connect your rain column to the downspout with a rain collector.
You will also find detailed installation instructions including sketches on the service page.
The built-in filter screen catches dirt and the water is directed into the column. At maximum level, the water runs out of the column back via the rain collector into the downpipe, where it drains off.
On the back of the rain column there are three flat surfaces for the connection of the downpipe.
Take the height of the center of the opening of one of the planar surfaces and transfer it horizontally from the rain column to the downpipe.
Next, saw off the downpipe 85 mm (L1) below this mark.
Place the second cut 300 mm (L2) above the first cut.
In the resulting gap insert the rain collector.
In order to connect the rain collector to the rain column, you must drill out the corresponding flat surface. To do this, select a drill bit with a diameter of 50 mm and drill in the center. Now mount the hose nipple and attach the connecting hose (shortened to 10 cm).
