The Rainwater HOG system has been recognized with multiple industry awards, underscoring its unique approach to water storage. The primary manufacturing of the product is done in California, United States, to serve the North American market, but the core design and the company's roots are in Australia.

Products and Services

The entire product and service offering of HOG Works Pty Ltd is centered around the multi-award-winning Rainwater HOG tank and its associated system components. The company focuses on a single, highly adaptable product designed to be a "water-filled building block."

1. The Rainwater HOG Tank

The Rainwater HOG is a distinctive, slimline, modular water storage tank that serves as the company's flagship product.

• Design and Functionality:

  • Modular and Stackable: The HOG tanks are designed to connect together and can be stacked or installed in any orientation (horizontal or vertical), offering unparalleled flexibility in placement. This modularity allows customers to scale their water storage capacity precisely to their needs and available space.
  • Slim-Line Profile: The narrow, flat profile is engineered for safe and effective use in confined spaces, such as along fences, beneath decks, under house eaves, in crawl spaces, or against walls, without compromising pedestrian or vehicular access/egress.
  • Capacity: Each standard HOG tank stores 50 gallons (approximately 189 liters) of water.
  • Material: The tanks are manufactured from food-grade plastic, ensuring the stored water is suitable for a wider range of uses, including irrigation, toilet flushing, and laundry, and potentially emergency drinking water if properly maintained and filtered.
  • Decentralized System: The HOG system promotes a decentralized approach to water storage, which typically involves minimal pipework and allows for quick and easy installation compared to large, centralized tanks.

• Applications and Target Audiences:

  • Residential Use: Homeowners seeking to conserve water for gardening, toilet flushing, and laundry, particularly those with limited yard space who cannot accommodate traditional large tanks.
  • Commercial/Institutional Use: Schools, businesses, and public parks use HOGs for sustainable rainwater harvesting, often utilizing them for irrigation or as part of educational displays on water conservation.
  • Emergency Water Storage: Due to their durable construction and food-grade material, the tanks are ideal for safely storing emergency water reserves, which is a key market segment the company addresses.
  • Grey Water Storage: The tanks are suitable for the storage and reuse of grey water (water from sinks, showers, and laundry).

2. System Components and Accessories

To facilitate a complete rainwater harvesting solution, HOG Works provides necessary system accessories:

• Connecting Components: Specialized fittings and connectors that allow multiple HOG tanks to link together seamlessly, creating a continuous, large-capacity storage array from the individual modules.
• Minimal Pipework: The design minimizes the need for extensive plumbing, allowing for efficient connection to downpipes and distribution systems for the stored water.
• Installation Kits and Instructions: Comprehensive guides, including videos, demonstrating how to easily install a rainwater harvesting system using the HOG tanks.

3. Technical and Support Services
