INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Choosing a location and base for your tank

A flat and well constructed base is critical for all water tanks. The whole under side of the tank must be fully supported. Every 1000 litres of water weighs 1 tonne. It is critical that the overall weight of your tank is considered before deciding the location.

Some base options are:

Water Tank

Water Tank

Water Tank

Concrete Slab: Always the best long term solution for your new water tank. A well laid concrete slab min 100mm thick with reinforcing mesh ensures the base will last as along as the tank.

Pre-cast Concrete Pavers: Suitable for when the ground is already flat and stable. Lay the pavers on a 50mm dry mix of sand and cement. Ensure they are level and stable

Crusher Dust / Sand Base: For round tanks. The sand or dust must be well contained to ensure it will not be undermined by water run off etc.

Tank Stand: The stand and footing should be engineered to take the intended weight. A less expensive option is to make the tank taller and add a bucket tap.
