Crocus Black 8.5ft Rain Chain by Good Directions

The Good Directions Crocus Black 8.5ft Rain Chain is a beautifully designed and expertly crafted addition to your home. This 8.5-foot rain chain effectively channels rainwater while creating a lovely cascading effect from your roof to the ground with wide 3.25-inch crocus cups. Enhance your home's style and functionality with this durable and elegant rain chain, built to withstand the elements for years.

Rain chains are an attractive and functional alternative to traditional downspouts. They guide rainwater from the roof to the ground aesthetically pleasingly with linked cups or chains that create a beautiful waterfall effect. Available in various designs, including cups shaped like flowers or bells, they complement any home or garden.

They are eco-friendly and low maintenance, reducing soil erosion and requiring less upkeep than standard gutters. While they help manage winter runoff, they are not explicitly designed to prevent ice damage. However, their open design allows for better ice management by reducing blockages and minimizing the risk of cracking. Remember that ice buildup can stress the chain if not properly anchored, and dripping water can create slippery patches. Standard downspouts with heating cables may be more effective in extremely cold or freezing conditions. To reduce ice issues, securely mount your rain chain and consider using a basin or drainage bed to absorb runoff.

Installation is simple. Only a screwdriver is needed to install your new rain chain. A gutter installation clip is included for the perfect connection. The chain is 8.5 feet long, and the cup is 3 1/4 inches wide x 3 inches high. The Good Directions cups are the largest in the industry, ensuring all water is diverted from your home.
