A stormwater rain barrel/storage tank is a container, often connected to a downspout that collects and stores stormwater runoff from a roof, which reduces the amount of stormwater flowing onto your property. A rain barrel installation is a quick and easy DIY project that allows you to harvest rainwater. When properly installed and maintained, a rain barrel/storage tank is a great way to conserve water for outdoor use, like maintaining outdoor plants.
Never use collected stormwater for drinking or food preparation.

$0.25 per litre of storage
To receive a rain barrel/storage tank rebate, the following conditions must be met:
Make sure that you have all of the necessary photos and documents so that we can efficiently process your application and claim. View helpful tips for filling out your application.
Keep all project-related receipts. You will need to include them when submitting your claim.
Use the Rain Barrel Sizing Tool and Alberta Clean Runoff Action Guide: Rainwater Harvesting to help determine how many rain barrels/storage tanks you need to store the runoff generated from your directly connected impervious area (DCIA). We recommend you try to capture 100% of the runoff generated.
A property is planning to install one (1) rain barrel. The rain barrel has a storage capacity of 55 gallons (208 litres). In this case, the applicant would receive a $52 rebate ($0.25 per litre of rain barrel storage).
