BlueBarrel Customer Reviews

"I have been sharing my joy with the BlueBarrel Systems I have in place. Its the best system I’ve found, and I’ve tried a number of them!" 

- Amy in Cotati, CA

 

"We love our system and BlueBarrel's sales staff and instructions made it so simple that my son and I completed the project in no time with absolutely no plumbing skills whatsoever! Thank you BlueBarrel!"

- Danny in Columbus, OH

 

"Thanks for creating a very useful product. The directions were well done and I loved the way the parts were packaged in a step-by-step way so that we could move from one bag to the next and feel a sense of completion as we went along. The system was easy to customize around some obstacles we had on our site as well." 

- Ashely in Fort Collins, CO

"We love our system and BlueBarrel’s sales staff and instructions made it so simple that my son and I completed the project in no time with absolutely no plumbing skills whatsoever! Thank you BlueBarrel!"
- Danny in Columbus, OH
"We hosted a workshop to install our 12-barrel BlueBarrel System. It was an amazing experience building something sustainable for our home together. It was a positive and fulfilling experience for our whole family."
- Jeanna in Windsor, CA
"Just wanted to share the exciting news that our barrels filled up for the first time yesterday! Thanks for all your help, BlueBarrel. Rain is so much more exciting now. I've run outside in the rain several times this year to check the tank gauge and watch the system while it's working. Happy days!"
- Steve in Davis, CA
"I painted my barrels to match my house. The setup was straightforward. The directions were simple to follow and I recommend watching BlueBarrel’s videos as well. It's amazing how quickly they fill. I’ll be setting up the soaker hose I bought from BlueBarrel to water my four raised beds."
- Jay in Denver, CO
"The installation went well and I just received a rebate from the City of Santa Monica through the SoCal Water Smart Program that covers the total cost of the system. Thanks once again."
- Pieter in Santa Monica, CA
"I am set and ready for rain with these six barrels tucked around the corner on my deck! Soon I will be installing a second set in the front yard. Thank you, BlueBarrel!."
- Kelly in College Station, TX
"We built an 8-barrel BlueBarrel System to irrigate part of our school garden.  I could see the students' minds light up when they learned about the huge volume of water that could be captured from just a small portion of the school roof. Installing our system has helped to create a culture of environmental stewardship on the campus."
- Tim in Healdsburg, CA
"Just finished building a 4-barrel BlueBarrel System. Pretty easy to do. I stacked two 8x8x8 cinder blocks front and back, and laid 2x6x8 boards for a platform. SoCal Water Smart rebates covered all but the blocks and boards."
- Jeff in Murrieta, CA
"Being new to rain catchment, I found that BlueBarrel and their staff were very supportive in helping me get started with my system. They were very organized in getting me a voucher to pick up my barrels locally, and sending me a complete kit with all the pieces I needed to set it up. I ordered their tools, too! The system works incredibly well and I am very happy with it. I could not be happier with the BlueBarrel organization and the system they have provided me with."
- Dean in Santa Rosa, CA
"I'm so happy I decided to purchase and install these rain barrels. I got four of them, and they sit discreetly at the side of our house. During the rainy season, all four of them filled up in about two days, I couldn't believe it! I use the water for my citrus trees, which they love. I even got a rebate of $100 from the county, so the setup cost even less than I expected."
- Scott in San Carlos, CA

 BlueBarrel On the Map: Our Customers' Impact

A map is the best way to show the collective impact of rainwater harvesting. Here we show approximate customer locations. To respect customer privacy we don't show specific parcels, but you can zoom in on the cluster bubbles to see pin-points for each location we've served. Mouse over the blue pins to see how many barrels are installed at each site. The average size for a BlueBarrel System is 4 to 5 barrels, but many go much larger. 44 is our max to date. Can you find the site with 44 barrels? (Hint: zoom in on California)
