INSTALLATION
All water tanks should be sited on a stable, flat, level base with at least 100 mm gap between the tank and any fixed object such as a building or fence.
One litre of water weighs one kilogram. So, for example, a full 1,000-litre tank weighs 1,000 kg, plus the weight of the tank itself. That’s why it’s very important to place your tank on a solid base that will support it evenly and keep it level. The preferred base is a properly constructed concrete slab that is slightly larger than the footprint of the tank.
Because round tanks are inherently stronger than other shapes, they can be installed on a well-compacted 100 mm sand base, as long as the edges of the base are protected from erosion. Any other tank shape, such as a slimline tank, must be must be installed on a concrete slab.
