Do I have to pay for these guides?

No. Every guide on this page is genuinely free. You enter your email address, and we send you the download link. That's it. You can opt out of any further communication immediately.

Who are these guides written for?

Asset managers, engineers, operators, and owners who work with water storage infrastructure. The language is technical and direct — these are working documents, not marketing brochures.

Are these guides current with Australian standards?

Yes. All guides reference current AS2304, AS1851, and AS4020 requirements. We review and update when standards are revised or when industry practice has materially shifted.

What is the difference between PC Tanks and PC Water Solutions resources?

PC Tanks is our water storage division — focused on tanks, liners, fire water compliance, and asset maintenance. PC Water Solutions is our water treatment division — focused on WTPs, operations, and remote treatment infrastructure. The guides are divided by division so you can find what's relevant to your project type.

Can I share these guides with my team or clients?

Yes, within your organisation. The guides are provided for professional use. If you are distributing broadly or using content in published work, please contact us.
