An exclusive addition to the tapered cups designs, this rain chain design is made of steel and plated in copper to easily co-ordinate with any style gutters and trim to give your home a modernized look. The patent pending design with seamed cup construction makes for an extremely strong and durable rain chain. This rain chain will easily handle heavy rainfall conditions. Comes with a copper installation kit making installation easy. NOTE: To prevent damage in transit and reduce packaging volume, the chain is shipped with cups nestled inside each other and require assembly. Assembly takes very little time and requires no tools.
How Rain Chains Work
Rain Chains are decorative replacements for downspouts and are required to be used in conjunction with gutters. To install, remove your current downspout and place the included installation kit in the hole in your gutter. We recommend using an all-weather caulk as well. Hang your chain off the bottom of the installation kit so it hangs directly down and ensure you purchase enough length to reach the ground. It is very important to secure your Rain Chain to the ground with a decorative pot or stake to prevent it from swaying in the wind.
It is important to note that rain chains cause slight amounts of splashing in rainstorms but not enough to effect the function of your gutters.
