San Diego
Rain barrels are extremely popular in San Diego. Why could this be?
One primary reason may be that most San Diego residents qualify for amazing rain barrel rebates. Both the City of San Diego and the SoCal WaterSmart Program offer rain barrel rebates for eligible ratepayers. Those who live within San Diego city limits can apply for both of these rebates and double down on the savings.
“Home-made” systems will not qualify for southern California’s rain barrel rebate programs, but BlueBarrel provides a great DIY kit that meets all California state code requirements and has been approved by both rebate programs, so for those who wish to use recycled barrels to build a qualifying system, we’ve got just the answer. (See below for details on getting started with BlueBarrel).
With an arid southern California climate, San Diego’s most eco-conscious understand that collecting rainwater has many environmental benefits; among them water conservation, drought mitigation, stormwater runoff reduction, and watershed protection. With uncertainties related to climate change, emergency preparedness is another benefit to storing rainwater on site.
