Water infrastructure for the places ordinary setups leave behind. Pumping. Treatment. Storage. Power. One coordinated plan—from a pallet to a freight container.
The supply is weak. The road is narrow. The power is uncertain. The nearest parts counter is a long way away.
That is where the design starts—not where the conversation ends. Aqua Vitas brings the practical water-system experience of Total Wells into modular infrastructure for rural properties, remote operations and continuity planning.
We begin with the water you can actually access, the service you need to maintain, and the conditions the equipment must survive. Then we build the project around those requirements.
See what a complete scope should include ↗Known supply, intermittent supply—or a question mark.
↗02 / ENERGYGrid electric, generators, solar, batteries and stored water.
↗03 / ACCESSFreight, unloading, terrain, clearances and the last mile.
↗04 / CONTINUITYReserve, replenishment, consumables and an operating plan.
↗Not everyday setups. Original concepts that show what the category can become: estate-scale resilience, emergency response, precision skid modules and off-grid container infrastructure.
Purpose-built reserve, treatment and pressure systems for large homes, compounds and mountain properties—whether the normal feed is municipal, well-based or blended by written design.
Trailer-mounted and rapidly deployable treatment concepts for continuity, recovery and interim water support where packaged response matters more than convenience.
Pallet and skid systems for treatment, pressure conditioning, transfer and modular process duty—ready to be enclosed, sheltered or integrated into a larger architecture.
Bold enough for isolated sites and continuity planning: treated reserve, power integration, environmental protection and the kind of water capacity ordinary setups do not rise to.
No universal filter. No assumptions about safety. Choose the source and see how the design conversation changes.
Municipal water can be the normal feed while a protected storage and delivery system supports the property during interruptions. Begin with the utility’s water report, pressure conditions and connection requirements.
Utility-approved backflow protection or separation, tank hygiene, turnover and a plan to preserve water quality. Never directly cross-connect untreated alternative water to public supply.
Unknown or chemically contaminated water is not assumed treatable by a standard package. Source assessment and laboratory results come before any drinking-water specification. CDC safety guidance ↗
One coordinated system approach. Five formats to discuss. The enclosure follows the equipment, access and service requirements—not the other way around.
A container-class enclosure for coordinated treatment, pumping, controls and service access. A strong starting point when weather protection, equipment organization and a dedicated operating space belong in the scope.
These are custom-build configuration concepts, not stocked or certified model specifications. Footprint, packed weight, flow, treatment, reserve and power are established in the approved project design. Optional packages are not automatically included.
| Format | Best starting conversation | Logistics priority | Scope to resolve |
|---|---|---|---|
| Field pallet | Compact treatment / boosting package | Rated handling equipment and protected siting | Nominal 4 × 4-foot concept; final envelope may differ |
| Enclosed skid | Compact system with a protective enclosure | Lift points, packed weight and accessible service sides | Climate package, ventilation and support surface |
| Mobile trailer | Relocatable, temporary or staged operation | Tow vehicle, axle limits, route and setup | Road-compliant build and stabilized operating position |
| 20′ container class | Dedicated equipment space | Truck / crane access and prepared foundation | Equipment arrangement, structure and service aisles |
| 40′ / multi-module | Separated processes or larger custom scope | Oversize / heavy freight review where applicable | Interconnections, structural loads and expansion stages |
Electrical capacity, pump duty, treatment loads and the availability of fuel or sunlight shape the system together. Select a power strategy to explore.
Combine appropriate power sources with protected storage, control logic and a defined operating sequence. The objective is continuity through an identified interruption—not a promise of unlimited autonomous operation.
Resolve load priorities, transfer compatibility, fuel access, battery limits, maintenance and common points of failure.
Stored water can separate collection from periods of demand. Delivery still requires adequate gravity head or available pumping power. Direct solar does not imply overnight pressure or treatment operation.
Power selection is a qualified electrical-design task. Voltage, phase, starting current, controls and environmental loads must be checked; there is no universal generator or battery size. EPA power-resilience resources ↗
Start with an operating horizon. Then work backward through usable water, replenishment, power, consumables and the people responsible for the system.
Define the essential use first, establish a protected reserve, check the actual backup-power path, and set a trigger for replenishment or a verified alternative supply.
These are planning horizons, not guaranteed endurance ratings or maintenance-free packages. A 365-day plan is a sourcing, energy, service and replenishment strategy—not a tank promised to last a year.
Usable reserve, hygienic storage, turnover, sample access and a low-level operating limit.
Alternative power or verified supply, transition procedures and a clear shutdown condition.
Critical spares, consumables, maintenance intervals and an identified operator—not just equipment.
A complete specification includes the unglamorous parts that make the whole system usable, maintainable and appropriate for its water source.
THE LAST MILE IS PART OF THE DESIGN.Concept imagery / not a deployment recordShipping available across the USA. A delivery plan that respects what happens after the freight truck arrives.
Destination, approach roads, grades, bridges, turning space, overhead clearance and seasonal access.
Confirmed packed dimensions and weight, carrier access, receiving contact and suitable unloading equipment.
Prepared support surface, drainage, utility connections, storage location and working room around the equipment.
Local qualified trades, permitting, verification, commissioning and operating responsibility defined before shipment.
Freight, unloading and site installation are separately scoped. Alaska, Hawaii, islands and difficult-access destinations require route-specific arrangements. Shipment availability is not a promise of nationwide same-day field service. Systems ship drained unless a transport-approved exception is expressly specified.
Tell us where it needs to go ↗Different uses. Different acceptance criteria. The same refusal to treat the difficult parts as somebody else’s problem.
Low-yield wells, seasonal supply, cisterns, outbuildings and a water plan that can grow with the property.
Separate domestic, livestock and process requirements. Match water quantity and quality to the actual use.
Temporary or longer-term operation with a defined receiving plan, service access and an accountable operator.
Critical-use reserves, verified alternative supply, distribution planning and authority review when required.
These are applications for project evaluation, not claims of completed institutional deployments or agency endorsement. Community, camp and public-serving systems may require public-water-system approval and qualified engineering. EPA public-system overview ↗
The promise is a disciplined process: establish the duty, specify the system, and agree how performance will be demonstrated. Not a brochure number detached from the water and the site.
Source records, samples, daily and peak demand, power, access and intended use.
Configuration, process limits, interfaces, approvals, price and written acceptance criteria.
Assembly, labels, documentation and agreed pre-shipment checks within the project scope.
Freight, unloading, site connections, field verification and operator handoff.
Maintenance, consumables, monitoring responsibilities and a resupply strategy.
Capacity is a number we establish.
Not one we invent.
Final output, water quality, pressure and runtime depend on the approved source envelope, equipment, operating conditions and upkeep. No universal potable-water, off-grid or zero-downtime guarantee is implied.
A practical first conversation, not an instant equipment quote. Your choices stay in this page until you copy, save or send them through your own email app.
Yes—as an assessment project. Unknown does not mean safe or automatically treatable. We first need to identify the source, understand the hazards, evaluate available quantity and define appropriate laboratory testing. Drinking-water equipment is selected only after a treatment objective and acceptable feed conditions are established.
No universal system should make that promise. Microorganisms, dissolved chemicals, salinity and toxins require different controls. Suspected fuel, chemical or radioactive contamination requires a verified alternative supply and specialist review; ordinary boiling or disinfection is not an adequate remedy. CDC guidance ↗
That can be evaluated, but sources must not be casually connected together. Utility requirements, approved backflow protection or physical separation, protected fill points and appropriate storage management must be part of the design. Alternative raw water never gets an unprotected connection to potable municipal piping.
The enclosure size alone does not establish capacity. Available source yield, raw-water quality, process recovery, treatment contact or exposure requirements, power, peak demand and required delivery pressure all matter. The proposal defines the output and operating envelope for the selected configuration.
Possible configurations include generator-supported, direct-solar, battery-backed or hybrid operation. Direct solar may collect water during sunlight and use storage to shift delivery, but pressurization and treatment still need an adequate energy or gravity path. Off-grid operation always depends on verified resources and a maintenance plan.
Nationwide shipping is available subject to destination, configuration, carrier capability and a confirmed receiving plan. Alaska, Hawaii and difficult-access routes are quoted individually. Freight, unloading, site preparation, local work and commissioning responsibilities are defined separately before shipment.
A preassembled package can simplify site work; it does not eliminate it. The receiving site still needs appropriate support, utilities, source and discharge connections, protection, verification and commissioning. Potable-water acceptance may also require testing and authority approval. The actual factory and field scope is written into the project.
These are project-built configurations rather than an inventory catalog. Price and schedule follow source review, duty requirements, equipment selection and shipping scope. Any required product certifications, electrical listings, professional engineering or public-water-system approvals must be identified and verified for the specific build. No blanket certification, fixed lead time or universal warranty is implied.
This site supports preparedness and project inquiries; it is not a monitored emergency-dispatch channel. Call to discuss current availability. During a current water-quality emergency, follow public-health instructions and use a verified safe supply rather than waiting for a custom system.

Nationwide system shipping. Field work by agreed scope.
Your planner choices can become an email draft. You review it and send it from your email app. Nothing is sent automatically.
Staining and metallic taste. Treatment depends on form (dissolved vs particulate) and oxidation strategy. Testing guides media choice and pre-filtration.
Dark staining and filter loading. Often needs targeted media and stable pre-treatment conditions to prevent recurring breakthrough.
Scale formation on water heaters, fixtures, and appliances. Hardness informs softening and helps reduce total maintenance cost.
A key driver for corrosion vs scaling risk. pH affects metal solubility and helps determine whether neutralization is needed before filtration stages.
Baseline indicator for dissolved minerals. Helps set expectations and decide whether point-of-use refinement is appropriate for drinking water.
Common in municipal supplies. Carbon filtration is typically used for chlorine reduction and taste/odor improvement, protecting downstream components.
For microbial risk, we typically recommend UV disinfection as part of a staged system. UV performance depends on peak flow sizing and adequate pre-filtration to protect the quartz sleeve and maintain UV transmission.
Best for a single targeted stage (e.g., sediment protection or carbon taste/odor improvement) when water conditions are stable.
Most common staged setup: sediment → carbon (or sediment → specialty). Improves performance and extends cartridge life.
For higher sediment loads or more complex treatment: coarse sediment → fine sediment → carbon/specialty polish.
Big Blue housings are building blocks. For bacterial risk, a typical sequence is: pre-filtration → (iron control if needed) → UV → post-polish. Your consultation output will specify assumptions and service intervals so the system performs consistently.
UV works when the dose is achieved. That means correct sizing for peak flow, clean sleeves, and stable pre-filtration to keep UV transmission high. If your water contains iron or turbidity, we design pre-treatment first to protect UV performance.
We request these, or estimate conservatively:
City or well, your state, what you’re seeing (staining, odor, scale, chlorine taste), and any prior test data.
We recommend a minimal test panel aligned to iron/manganese, hardness/pH, TDS/chlorine, and microbial pathway.
Pre-filtration, media stages, UV sizing assumptions, and service intervals—so the system performs consistently.
