How to install a Water Tank

[Music] positioning the tank at ground level is the most common form of installation to prepare the site you need to ensure the tank site is flatter level free for rocks and stones and any foreign matter that may damage the tank space ensure the site is well compacted if fillers used to prepare or level the site ensure that the tank side is at least 300 millimeters larger and diameter than the tank ever sand base is used a retaining cover must be provided to prevent the sand from washing away after installation that is the tank base must remained fully supported at all times you can see the truck and trailer is big and needs a lot of clear access the truck is 21 point 3 meters long 3.1 meters wide and 4 point 2 meters tall please check gates roads roundabouts crossings and overhanging trees on your property so that we can deliver your tank without damage let me push it off the truck there and get it planned on that page the tank to be rolled into place the delivery driver will need help to unload your tank from the truck so could you please have people available to help at the time of delivery if you're not installing the tank straightaway it's best to secure the tank on delivery either by tying it down with rope or putting at least 200 millimetres of water in the bottom of the tank a uni seal is excellent to use for sealing your pipe into the tank some soapy water can be sprayed to help the pipe slide easily through the Uni seal for your safety please use caution when working on the domed lid note that the tank elites trainer must be lower than the gutter allowing a slope of at least 4 percent or more for the down pipe please note that the down pipe capacity must match the overflow capacity the number of Inlet pipes their sizes and capacities must equal the number of overflow pipes this sizes and capacity for example to nineteen millimeter down pipes would require two 90 millimeter overflow in this case the tank needs one overflow installed the same size as the down pipe the overflow must be piped clear of the base to avoid erosion note also that the tank overflows can go below ground and then come up again to meet the stormwater runoff to take advantage or the maximum catchment available from a shed or house roof it's ideal to place the tank at the end of the building down pipes can be fed from both gutters into one tank to increase collection if there are also down pipes at the other end of the building ensure a flexible hose is installed after the gate or ball valve with a minimum 300 millimeter length the tank outlet must not be subjected to extra force that is over tightening of the fittings a small household pressure pump is placed in the outlet line to give tap pressure to several outlets and to the hot water system do not allow the tank side to deteriorate after installation due to any form of erosion or site destruction caused by vermin such as rabbits give us a call to discuss options on a 800 double seven double six to nine [Music]
