Hello All,

I live in the burbs of Virginia right outside of DC...*sighs*.. I spend most of my free time on projects, mostly Homesteading and Sustainability/ Efficiency remodels to improve value and provide more function. I'm almost finished on the Laundry Cove that's gonna make use of that dead space under the stairwell and add some livable square footage to the house, but i'm having a little trouble planning for my next project which will be a rainwater diverter system for my second story patio garden. Does anyone know of a subtle looking diverter kit that blends in color and shape with basic white aluminum drain spouts? I saw the "Oatley" system in my searches but that has a curve that is not symmetrical to the spout protruding enough to make it obvious to my HOA. I will probably mount this diverter towards the top of spout close to the horizontal catch spout (30 feet up). I am also open to any DIY system that's installed in the half spout drain opening or a passive system with over flow control capability at the collection point on the second deck about 20 feet below, HAS TO BE HIDDEN OR HIGHLY CONCEALED DURING NORMAL OPERATION. Thanks for any advice on where to look.
