Georgia Water Tanks is a manufacturer's rep company, providing water tanks, pumps, and filters on commercial and residential projects. As we grow, we look for ways to leverage our manufacturers' capabilities in all markets we serve. Our goal for every project is to "make it work the way everybody thinks it should."
To that end, we provide design assistance, custom coordination drawings, and commissioning on all our rainwater packages. More than commissioning, we provide jobsite supervision, to help all trades learn this "new" concept. Don't rely on sizing based on rooftop area. They are based on rainfall rates in Europe, and do not account for thunderstorms like we have in Georgia.

Rainwater is BETTER than city water, because it doesn't have chlorine. This is one of the simplest uses for the water, and often we can use all the rainwater available just keeping the landscaping pretty.? It's done all the time, but the art has been forgotten in much of the USA. Strain out the leaves and sticks, flush away the first portion of the rainfall, and keep the water cool and dark.
This is one of the simplest uses for the water, and often we can use all the rainwater available just keeping the landscaping pretty. Rainwater is BETTER than city water, because it doesn't have chlorine. Also great for washing your car! Size tanks with the 1:1:1 ratio. Dura-cast above ground plastic tanks in special colors, Rotoplas for lowest cost, available in sand, black, or green.
Size the collection tank and surface based on the 1:1:1 ratio. For every 1 square foot of garden, you need 1 gallon of storage and 1 square foot of rooftop. Larger tank or collection surface is better, more resilient. But the 1:1:1 ratio is good. Prefilters can be self-cleaning (Intewa Plurafit or Leafeater) or a basket filter in the manway of the tank.
Cost - Above ground tanks cost approximately 40% less than below ground tanks. Especially in areas of Georgia with rocky soil or high water table, above ground tanks are worth extra consideration.. Maintenance - With a properly functioning prefilter, neither tank requires much maintenance. Maybe every few years.

I was recommended by the manufacturer of our reclamation tanks and reached out to Rich and his team. He responded the same day. He was able to send out Ron who was an expert for our complex reclamation system. Within a few hours he was able to completely rebuild the system. I struggled these past few years finding a company that could actually come in and repair it and never could find the right company. I highly recommend them for your next system or repair. #reclamation

Richard is a top-notch guy and very knowledgeable and friendly. Got tons of help with picking out the water tank for rainwater harvesting, as well as suggestions for the accessories to go with it. He was very flexible with my schedule for pickup and even lent me strap-downs for the drive home. Very satisfied!!
