The seemless kind are best as they are less prone to leaks. Be sure that your fascia is in good shape and well sealed. This may not be bad to do, but do your research first, and do it right the first time. We've had leaky gutters before and they can cause BIG problems.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6525334973892331389.post-75226224778749055922008-04-24T10:18:00.000-04:002008-04-24T10:18:00.000-04:00This is great- We are planning on putting one in ...This is great- We are planning on putting one in this year.

After living in an area that was very supportive of rainwater harvesting, I thought it would be good to share our expertise.<BR/><BR/>good to meet another member of the old chevrolet set.<BR/><BR/>cheersAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6525334973892331389.post-34415936900039391392008-04-21T15:37:00.000-04:002008-04-21T15:37:00.000-04:00Wow.

We live on the Colorado prairie and considering our lack of natural water, we should really have a rain barrel. <BR/><BR/>BTW this is the first time (but definitely not the last) that I've been to your blog. I love the photo of the Chevy (my Dad still has the same model and color -- I have very fond memories of riding in it as a kid). And, I also think Suze Orman is a shill, although truth be told I had to look up the definition of shill! Thanks for blogging and submitting this post to the Green It!
