Commercial Rainwater Collection
A Dependable, Sustainable Water Source for Your Business
For nearly three decades, Lakota Water Company has partnered with businesses, developers, municipalities, schools, agricultural operations, and industrial facilities to deliver high-performance, long-lasting commercial rainwater collection systems.
As the first full-service rainwater collection installer in the USA, Lakota brings unmatched engineering expertise, end-to-end project management, and safe-water treatment experience to every commercial installation.

Engineered for Commercial Use: Potable & Non-Potable Systems
Lakota designs systems for both potable and non-potable applications, depending on your project requirements.

Right-Sized Storage for Commercial Demands
Commercial water demands vary widely, which is why Lakota engineers every system to match the specific needs of your building, roof area, usage patterns, and operational requirements. Storage capacity can range from 50,000 gallons for small buildings or irrigation-only applications, to 100,000–250,000 gallons for most mid-size commercial facilities, and 250,000 gallons or more for campuses, industrial operations, agricultural properties, or multi-building sites.
During the design phase, Lakota evaluates key factors such as roof catchment area, daily and peak water demand, occupancy patterns, drought resilience needs, potable vs. non-potable usage, and compliance with building plans or permitting requirements. The result is a right-sized system that supports your long-term operational needs, without overspending on unnecessary storage or risking undersupply during critical periods.
