One Texas Water is a full service Rainwater Harvesting System consultation, design and build company. We offer the expertise of our ARCSA Accredited Professional in designing a rainwater harvesting system for your potable (drinking) water or irrigation needs.

Corrugated metal tanks plumbed together to increase storage capacity in an area where one large tank wouldn't have fit.

Rainwater Harvesting can also be used as a means of storm water mitigation and containment. Here in Texas, RWH (Rainwater Harvesting) is also used for livestock and wildlife drinking water. Tanks or cisterns for any of the systems can be placed above or below ground and can be designed in a number of different ways to address the aesthetic and functional needs of the end user.

As more and more people and municipalities are becoming increasingly aware, rainwater harvesting is a system that collects and conveys rainwater from roofs, filters debris from the water and stores the rainwater for use. Systems can be non-potable or potable, the latter requiring additional filtering after the water is pumped from the tank.

Across the United States, people realize the need to conserve water. Rainwater harvesting enjoys widespread use in areas around the world such as Europe and the Caribbean islands, and these systems are a logical solution for our country’s water resource challenges.

There is growing enthusiasm about green, sustainable living systems and practices that save water, energy and money, while preserving and improving our natural environment.

Rainwater harvesting supplies alternative water for such non-potable uses as irrigation, toilet flushing, laundry, vehicle and facility cleaning, fire suppression systems, HVAC cooling towers and agriculture. Potable rainwater harvesting systems can be used for drinking water, as well as showers/baths, dishwashing, swimming pools and food processing. Rainwater harvesting is a powerful solution to a range of water problems.

Plastic tanks come in a variety of colors and sizes.

With a growing population, declining quality of surface water and groundwater and an aging water infrastructure, the need to explore alternatives to our current water supply system is clear. By collecting rainfall that would normally become runoff and instead using it to meet water needs, rainwater harvesting provides an alternative that both lessens the strain on our current water supply system and helps protect the quality of surface waters.
