Short answer: any Aqua Cat system can wear a custom look. Pick one of our in-stock Cat Series designs for $200, or submit your own design from $500 — you approve a proof before anything is made. Covers are removable, service-friendly, warranty-neutral, and made from UV-stable materials chosen for Arizona garages.
Why we do this
Every Aqua Cat system is named after a cat — Tiger, Bobcat, Snow Leopard, Jaguar — and the flagship Tiger wears the design that matches our logo. Customers kept asking about it. So we made it official: your system can wear one of ours, or one of yours. A water softener sits in your garage for 15+ years; it might as well be something you like looking at.
Two ways to do it
| Option | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| In-stock Cat Series look | Choose from our designs — tiger, bobcat, panther, snow leopard, lynx and more — color-matched to the Aqua Cat style. | $200 |
| Your own design | Send us your idea — art, colors, theme. We prep it, you approve a proof, then we produce and fit it. | from $500 |
Both options are add-ons to any Aqua Cat system — new installs or systems we’ve already installed. Custom pieces are produced after your install and fitted when ready, so your water treatment never waits on artwork.
The practical stuff (because we’re plumbers first)
Service access is untouched. Covers are removable in seconds — the valve, display, bypass, and salt lid stay fully reachable. Your warranty is unchanged — 2-year labor and manufacturer coverage apply exactly as before. Arizona-proof materials: UV-stable ASA plastic with a clear topcoat — the material class used for outdoor automotive parts — not the cheap stuff that warps in a hot garage.
Ground rules for custom designs
Three, and they protect both of us: no trademarked or copyrighted art (we can’t print someone else’s logo or characters); you approve a written proof before production starts; and Aqua Cat has final say on what we’ll produce. Beyond that — your garage, your cat, your call.
Bottom line
Nobody needs a custom tank. But nobody forgets one either — and nobody else offers it. If you’re getting a system anyway, $200 turns it into the most interesting thing in the garage.
