One of the first things to consider should be the facility to store the water.
The size of any water storage facility will be determined by one or more of the
following factors –
|
Supply rate of incoming water. |
|
Consumption rate of water |
|
Required reserve of water |
|
Future requirements of system |
|
Space available – aesthetics |
|
Budget |
Corrugated steel (sectional) water storage tanks
We supply tanks from the Gordon Low range of surface mounted butyl rubber lined
steel water tanks. Capacities range from 4500 litres (1000 gals) to 214,800
litres (47250 gals). The tanks are sectional and require an outlet and over
flow, which mean some knowledge of installation is required.
Three types of cover are available for these tanks
|
Floating type |
|
PVC tent type |
|
Steel type with access hatch |
All covers help prevent algae growth and the build up of debris; however the
steel lid provides the best results.
Reservoirs
Butyl rubber sheeting can be fabricated in to a liner to suit any size of
reservoir, and are ideal for the storage of excess drainage water- roof water or
reclaimed irrigation water. See filtration section
