About the Business
Pristine Water Systems is Australia’s only dedicated water tank cleaning franchise, rapidly expanding into new regions. Our services include water tank cleaning and sanitising, as well as the supply and servicing of premium filtration and UV systems.
While clean mains water is common, over 10% of Australians rely on rainwater tanks. With limited competition, Pristine Water Systems has established itself as the country’s premier water tank cleaning company. Our exclusive QuadClean™ process and industry-leading sanitising products give franchisees a clear competitive advantage.

Our innovative Bio-Cleanse™ system removes biofilm from household and commercial pipes, generating recurring revenue.
Our customer base spans all ages — from young families to retirees — as everyone relies on clean, safe water. Regular maintenance is essential for rainwater tank users, ensuring ongoing demand.
