Selection

The small fits downspouts that are approx 2 x 3 inches or about 10-11 circumference and 3″ round.   The large fits downspouts that measure something greater than 3×4 or 14″ circumference or a 4″ round. the large diverter will not work with downspouts that are smaller the 3×4″ or 4″ round.

Details and Installation

• Draw a line on the downspout approximately 9 inches above the top of the rain barrel
• Move the barrel away
• Use a hacksaw and cut the downspout at the line or marking
• If the downspouts is a little larger than the diverter use needle nose pliers to crimp the edges so it will fit inside the diverter.  A snug fit is good and will hold it in place.

Note:
if a downspout bracket is below your cut, remove the bracket and place it above the cut

• Attach diverter and set angle
• The diverter is designed so that you can crimp the sides of the downspouts to fit the diverter
• Tools needed: a hacksaw & measuring tape
