Concrete underground water tanks from Sydney Water Tanks - out of sight, out of mind

New house blocks are becoming smaller while at the same time there is a need to capture and store larger quantities of water. Sydney Water Tanks offers a reliable way to store that water without using any yard space. Their tanks can be located under the front garden or driveway where it is completely out of the way of any future development. Sydney Water Tanks satisfy Basix requirements for new houses and extensions.

The tanks are factory pre-cast using 40mpa fibre steel reinforced concrete. They are delivered to site ready to use and fitted with a stainless steel submersible pump controlled by the very simple and robust WaterMarked rainswitch.

The only site works required to complete the installation is to connect the roof water to the tank inlet and the tank outlet to the rainswitch. As soon as rain fills the tank, free water can be used to flush the toilets, wash the car and water the garden.

Sydney Water Tanks' rainswitch supplies rain water to selected outlets such as toilets and outside taps. When the tank is empty the rainswitch automatically changes to town water, with the water source being used indicated on a display panel that can be located in a convenient position in the house. The pump does not operate when town water is being used.

Tanks are available in 3800, 5050, 6100 and 10,000 litre capacities. Tanks can be joined at the base to increase capacity.

Unique features are the variable inlet and overflow levels that avoid charged storm water systems. Call Sydney Water Tanks to find out more about this innovative design.

Installation is easy and a company representative can visit the site to assist in selecting the best tank location. The tanks are delivered and craned into position by the company's own crane trucks. Each tank is supplied with a detailed installation diagram.

If house and contour plans are available, Sydney Water Tanks will provide an accurate drainage profile for the particular site that will remove the guesswork from the installation.

The company was established in 1993 and supplies many leading project builders. Sydney Water Tanks has more information at www.sydneywatertanks.com.au or call on 1800 041 111.
