  • what song plays during the video, please?

  • Bela Fleck and the Flectones

  • You are right...I incorporated those vents from another online instruction but there is plenty of room by the downspout to allow all the air you want.

  • Over 100 gallons of water from a 2 inch rainfall?  Time to expand your storage capacity.

  • You are so right...but, those were set up at a school where I taught and it was partly a demonstration project...but this summer I plan to install several at home. No gutters installed yet but it will all happen.
