1. Estimate required storage
Consider daily demand, backup duration, rainfall capture or process requirements to estimate the useful storage volume.
2. Check installation space
Measure the available footprint, access route, height restrictions and base area before selecting a tank format.
3. Plan inlet, outlet and overflow
Connection positions, pipe sizes, overflow routing and isolation valves should be coordinated with the installation.
4. Decide how water will be delivered
Gravity supply and pumped supply have different requirements. A pressure pump or booster system may be required where outlet pressure is important.
5. Consider water quality
Filtration, disinfection and tank maintenance requirements depend on the water source and intended use.
6. Add monitoring and protection
Level gauges, float valves, controllers, dry-run protection and non-return valves can improve operation and protect equipment.
Use this guide to prepare your enquiry. Final product selection should be checked against the actual system duty, installation conditions and project specification.
