Did you know that horses prefer rainwater over any other water source? Three TinyTimber ™ Tanks are used for residential rainwater harvesting to convey water from the house and barn to provide water to the animals and irrigation. The aesthetic of the Eastern Red Cedar fits right in to this beautiful property located in Boerne, TX.
This 24,000 gallon rainwater harvesting Cistern was installed to provide potable water for a residence in Fredricksburg, TX. It incorporates filtration inside the tank and utilizes a 2HP submersible pump for a clean finished appearance. The 12′ windmill provides aeration for the stored water in the tank keeping it from getting stagnant while inside the residence are additional carbon and UV filters to provide clean, pure drinking water for the family and their domestic needs.

We were fortunate to work with the owner, Carlos Russo, to provide a 5,000 gallon CorGal water tank that assisted with the stormwater plan for his site and also serves to irrigate the plants in the beer garden area.
Big buildings require big fire protection. We supplied a 36,000 gallon tank to a leader in the rental industry, Texas First Rentals. Without this large tank TFR would not have a had a cost effective means for fire protection that met NFPA 22 and the local fire marshal’s requirements.
We are proud to be one of the only companies in the nation who consistently works with tanks on towers. Our work has inspired many designers, so when the landscape architect for DR Horton’s new Creekside Village subdivision wanted an entry feature, he consulted SWS. The tower was custom engineered to hold a large CorGal® water tank. We fabricated all the custom brackets and manipulated huge 12×12 and 10×10 timbers into place. The end result makes a statement and welcomes residents home.
When the architectural design for the new Hondo Public Library specified a tank and tower as a central feature, Specified Water Systems was called to assist. Being very limited on budget, a traditional tank and tower were not feasible. SWS consulted with the architect, proposing a hopper bottom grain bin, which accomplished the design objectives and stayed within budget. We custom made letters that attached to the side of the bin for signage, achieving the look that was desired. The new library is now a modern gathering place for the community.
This beautiful chapel located near New Braunfels needed a fire protection water tank in time for a wedding. Specified Water Systems was able to produce a 13,000 gallon tank just in time for their grand opening.
