Concrete Water Tanks
As of 1 January 2004, the State Government made it compulsory to install a rainwater tank with all new dwellings.
We have a huge range of concrete water tanks available.
Our precast concrete water tanks range in size from 5000 litres upwards.
Whatever your situation, we have a tank to suit ...
Our water tank packages include an Onga water pump, the freight to carry the tank and the crane to place, the excavation for the tank and a load of water. Of course, if you would prefer to provide the excavation service yourself, that's OK - we will provide you with a drawing showing the size of the hole to be excavated, the amount of bedding sand you'll need etc.
Inground RW Series concrete tanks scroll down for the specs Our inground concrete tanks are buried with approximately 150mm of the tank left above ground to prevent surface water from entering the tank. Note: these tanks are also available wtth a "flat top" option.
Underground UG Series concrete tanks scroll down for the specs Our underground concrete tanks are completely buried. They are ideal for beneath your lawn, driveway, garage slab etc.
Benefits of concrete tanks over tanks made from other materials
- Concrete is comprised of relatively environmentally friendly materials.
- Concrete tanks can be buried underground 90-100%, and being underground provides several benefits:
- It helps to keep the water cool (think about Coober Pedy!) making it much nicer to drink;
- because the water in the tank is cool, algae growth is virtually eliminated (algae do not like the cold);
- the algae growth having been eliminated, you will experience less problems with your pumps and valves (that's money in your pocket);
- the visual impact of buried tanks on your property can be as little as 100mm (that's the lid) above ground.
- Concrete tanks are hard-wearing and long-lived. Provided the tank is supported in the ground by a sound excavation, you will get many years of useful life from it.
