About the RainRouter Multi-Function Diverter System
This kit includes all parts needed to add a state-of-the-art diverter system to a rain barrel. The RainRouter Multi-Function Diverter
System can be used to send rainwater from a downspout to multiple collection spots. The RainRouter system lets you connect
two (2) garden hoses, a garden hose and a rain barrel, or two (2) rain barrels to a single installed diverter. A rain barrel can also
be located to a more convenient location, such as the center of a garden, using a garden hose to connect the rain barrel to the
downspout.
Some areas prohibit the use of rain barrels. Please check local regulations before installing.

Planning
A. Planning for new local installations:
Select a downspout on which to locate the RainRouter selector valve, keeping in mind the route to the areas that you intend
to send the water to and elevation changes or obstacles along the path of the hose. For garden hose or remote rain barrel
installations, it is recommended you lay out the hose before installing the diverter. For conventional rain barrel installations,
refer to the instructions included with your EarthMinded rain barrel.
B. Planning for new remote installations:
A rain barrel can be located away from a downspout to a different location such as the center of a garden by using a garden
hose to connect a rain barrel to the downspout. Follow the instructions in this guide for marking the height of the diverter
instead of the instructions in the EarthMinded rain barrel user guide.
Easy diverter installation method
This method does not automatically bypass water to the downspout
During rain, the water will continue to flow to this location unless the selector valve is set to the OFF mode.
A. For use with garden hose(s) only, without a rain barrel connection
Make a reference mark on the downspout where you will install the diverter as high as is convenient, at least 1’ (300mm) above
the highest point in the hose run.
B. For connecting a sealed rain barrel, or a rain barrel with an overflow hose where flooding is not a concern
Make a reference mark on the downspout where you will install the diverter as high as is convenient, at least 1’ (300mm) above
the level of the rim of the barrel or highest point in the hose run. The barrel will overflow when full. If flooding is an issue, use
the precision installation method or attach an overflow hose near the rim of the barrel.

Remotely locating a rain barrel
A rain barrel can be located away from a downspout to a more convenient location such as the center of a garden by using a
garden hose to connect the rain barrel to the downspout.
1. iFor the easy installation method, fitting an overflow hose to the barrel is recommended.
2. For the precision installation method follow the special instructions for marking the diverter height at the downspout. When
installing a top-fill rain barrel, the overflow hose will need to be removed and plugged to maintain the automatic bypass function
and discourage infestation. If two (2) barrels are connected, the rims of both barrels need to be at the same height or the lower
barrel will overflow.
For garden hose or remote rain barrel installations, the entire hose length must be lower than the level of the diverter or water will
not flow to the collection spot.

Precision diverter installation method
This method is recommended for:
• Connecting rain barrel(s) using the FlexiFit diverter’s automatic bypass function
• Connecting both a rain barrel and a garden hose
1. If the barrel is going to be installed near the downspout, place a level on the rim of the barrel, and mark the height of the rim of
the barrel on the downspout.
2. Measure down 3” (76mm) below that mark - this will become your reference mark for drilling the hole in the downspout.
When installing both a local and a remote barrel, measure from the rim of the barrel nearest the downspout (local rain barrel) and
be sure to use a sealed barrel or install an overflow hose to the remote barrel.
Note: The height of the top of the diverter will dictate the fill level of the rain barrel. If it is above the rim of the barrel, the barrel
will flood. If it is below the rim of the barrel, the barrel will only fill to the height of the diverter.

About the FlexiFit diverter
DO NOT CUT THE DOWNSPOUT UNTIL READING THE ENTIRE GUIDE!
The FlexiFit diverter redirects water from your downspout to the barrel and automatically passes water through the downspout
when the barrel is full of rainwater. The diverter is installed in a hole that is cut in the downspout.
1. The hole must be cut at the correct height for the diverter to work properly.
2. If the diverter is installed too low, the barrel will not fill properly.
3. If the diverter is installed too high, water will overflow from the rim of the barrel (this only applies to open top barrels).
IMPORTANT: There are two ways to install the diverter depending on the type of barrel you use. If the barrel is a sealed container
without a lid or screen, the diverter can be located at the same level as the rim of the barrel or higher. This will improve the filling
efficiency of the diverter.
If the barrel has a removable lid or screen, the center of the diverter hole must be drilled 3” (76mm) below the level of the rim of
the barrel to prevent water from leaking from the lid seam or screen. The diverter will not work if it is placed below the level of the
water inlet on the barrel.
The diverter provided in this kit is not for use with round downspouts.
