Water conservation opportunity available to residents of New Hampshire 

Hampton, NH – February 24, 2022 Aquarion Water Company announced today that it will be offering for sale upcycled rain barrels as part of the company’s ongoing water conservation efforts. 

For only $75, New Hampshire customers can purchase and have delivered to their home a high-quality, 60-gallon upcycled rain barrel designed to fit under a downspout and catch rainwater running off of the roof. Customers can collect and store water for use in a garden whenever it rains. It takes just one quarter-inch of rainfall on an average roof to fill the barrel and provide water to use during dry periods, even when restrictions are imposed on water usage. The usage of rain barrels can help conserve water and reduce water bills.

Key Features:

  • 60-gallon food-grade upcycled rain barrel with brass spigot
  • Removable intake screen keeps insects and debris from entering
  • Overflow directs water away from the foundation
  • Connects to drip irrigation, soaker or garden hoses
  • Terra cotta color prevents light transmission & inhibits algae growth
  • Easy to set up and use – screw off top for easy cleaning
  • Join multiple barrels for extra capacity

Aquarion and Abenaki customers in Bow, Carroll, Gilford, Hampton, North Hampton, and Rye, NH can order barrels online at www.aquarionwater.com/rainbarrels. Orders must be received by May 6, 2022.  Rain barrels will be delivered to purchasers via contactless delivery between May 14 -21, 2022.
