Water Storage

These TS50 Water Storage Tanks are so cool we just had to have them for our product line. They are Stackable! ... but please, we advise no more than two high! Each TS50 holds approximately 50 gallons. The "fresh water green" which we cleverly identify as our "green" model contains a special pigmentation to limit sunlight penetration and thereby inhibit growth of undesirable organics in the stored water. The white model appeals to some and is more appropriate for indoor applications. Both are molded of food grade polyethylene. The 2" fill port (approx 1.7" ID) is on the center top, recessed, and equipped with a black cap. A drainage trough allows spillage or precipitation in the vicinity of the fill port to drain to the outside thereby reducing prospects for contamination. The contents can be accessed from the 3/4" FNPT fitting on the side of the tank. The center of the fitting is about 1.25" from the outside bottom of the tank with the lower edge of the ID of the fitting within about 1/2" of the bottom of the inside of the tank. Because the bottom of the tank is domed to allow it to stack on another tank, nearly complete drainage can be achieved without tilting of the tank.

OUR COMMON SENSE WARNINGS: Do not stack more than two high. Secure as necessary. Install only in suitable, structurally sound locations. If installed on soils, be aware that water saturation of soils may lead to instability of tanks. Do not use a full or partially full tank stacked on top of an empty or partially full lower tank. Lower tank should be full for stability. These tanks are intended for emergency storage of potable water only. Follow government published potable water storage guidelines. These warnings are intended to advise against potential safety hazards.
