Drawing on over fifty years of fluid handling and systems integration experience, each Rainwater Harvesting System is custom-designed to meet project-specific flow, pressure, and water quality requirements while complying with applicable plumbing and building codes.

The Rainwater Harvesting System integrates pumping, filtration, sanitization, storage management, and automated controls into a single factory-assembled package. Designed for reliable operation and ease of installation, Rainwater Harvesting Systems deliver consistent hydraulic performance and water quality for applications such as irrigation, toilet and urinal flushing, cooling tower make-up, and other reclaimed water uses.

Sustainable Building Integration

Rainwater Harvesting Systems support modern sustainability initiatives by reducing potable water consumption and minimizing stormwater discharge. The system is well-suited for municipal, educational, commercial, and industrial facilities seeking to meet water conservation goals and green building standards without compromising operational reliability.

Control System Integration

Options for Allen-Bradley or Siemens PLC-controlled systems are available, ensuring smooth deployment into existing facility controls environments
Options to add BAS communication modules are available
PCW system panels include complete integration with all system instrumentation, such as temperature, pressure, & flow instrumentation; as well as chilled water flow control equipment, such as automatically actuated valves
For systems that require high voltage components, voltage transformers can be integrated to segregate high voltage components & allow for the use of low voltage components for process variable transmitters & manual controls
System control panels are pre-mounted & pre-wired to the system skid & skid components
Electrical conduit, such as PVC rigid & flexible PolyTuff is utilized for system wiring
