Abstract

See full text

A downspout diverter for rainwater collection that is installed through a hole in the wall of a downspout and functions as a gate valve by redirecting the flow of water from a pan-like Interior gate through a fitted bushing and exterior hose spout. The gate can be turned from its horizontal capture position to its vertical non-capture position by rotating the bushing. It is easy to install and remove without disconnecting the downspout, and its small size and accessory plug effect a finished appearance to the downspout.
