Remember—you are now the Water Department.
The quality of your water is a direct link to the quality of your health.
Uncle Tilo’s Clean Water is raising the bar for clean water in Hawai‘i—because standards matter.
In Hawai'i there are no regulations or safeguards for catchment systems, homeowners must protect themselves. That’s why UTCW empowers you to verify credentials before anyone works on your rainwater catchment system. Ask if they are ARCSA members—and check for yourself.
Too often, well-intentioned but unqualified individuals arrive claiming expertise, leaving behind costly mistakes: roofs painted with improper coatings, unnecessary tank draining, advice to skip mineral balancing, or systems installed with wet conveyance. We’ve seen the damage—and we’ve heard the stories over the past eight years.
You deserve better.
UTCW educates catchment users to become informed, confident Rainwater Harvesters—so you can make smart decisions, demand professional standards, and protect your water supply and your health.
