Years of drought, a rising population and demand for water led to restrictions and more expensive water for Australians. It also led to innovative new ways to collect, treat and store water for domestic use. Aussie Rain Tanks was established to bring this state of the art design and functionality to the United States.
While it would be ideal to harvest and use rainwater all year round, in California we are stuck with a Mediterranean climate giving us wet winters and dry summers. Just like farmers, we have a time to harvest and a time to sow. Modern rain tanks are purposely designed to collect as much water as possible when it rains and store it for long periods of time (3-4 months) in the dry.
Let the experts at Aussie Rain Tanks walk you through the variety of products and introduce you to the best rain harvesting system for your property. You'll have fresh rainwater for the garden and at the same time, reduce urban run-off.
