The rainwater from your roof is a valuable commodity: use Rainwater HOG modular tanks to catch and store your rainwater for reuse on your garden and even in your house. Irrigate with it, hose with it, even shower with it!
Rainwater can be used for watering your garden as well as for toilet flushing, laundry washing and bathing. Rainwater stored in food grade HOGs can be used as an emergency potable water supply. Rainwater is soft water, which means that it wont cause a build up of calcium in your plumbing like hard water can.
You can drink rainwater as long as your roofing material does not contain toxic materials. You will need to add a first flush diverter to the fine screen filter in the Inlet kit.
Don’t let your rainwater go to waste - the Rainwater HOG is functional, efficient and visually discreet rainwater storage!
Space is precious. Water is too. Sally Dominguez has designed an innovative vessel that stores the most volume of water possible in the smallest footprint. With a capacity of 51 gallons (193 litres), a footprint of 1.3 sq ft (0.11 m2) and vertical head of 6 ft (180cm) Rainwater HOG modules can fit under decks, up against walls and along side passageways.
Rainwater HOG won a prestigious Spark Award for Design in 2008 and was named in GreenSpec’s Top 10 Green Building Products for 2008.

February was a proud month at HOG Works as we packed our first container load of Australian made rainwaterhogs destined for the United States. The container was packed tight fitting in as many HOGs as we could.
