How much water can a rain chain control?
If you wish to be entertained by a more visual experience, we recommend a link style rain chain. However, in areas of heavy downfall we suggest purchasing a large or X-large cup style to efficiently and effectively control most of the rainfall. Some splashing is to be seen as a natural occurrence.
Does a rain chain work properly in areas of heavy snow fall?
This is a usual concern among homeowners especially those living in parts of the east coast who experienced record snow fall earlier this year. Given necessary precautions are considered and exercised, rain chains have the ability to withstand heavy snow storms. In addition, the outcome is usually one of a marvelous sight as ice formations accumulate overnight producing a beautiful sight. We strongly suggest strengthening your gutters before installing your rain chain to effectively control the extra weight.

Our customers are innovative and have also attached a fish line at the end of the rain chain and staked it to the ground.
