Georgia Water Tanks is a manufacturer's rep company, providing water tanks, pumps, and filters on commercial and residential projects.

We were founded January 2014 with the goal of making rainwater harvesting a part of every construction project where stormwater management is required. 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.
