Top 3 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. How heavy is this tank when full? A full 4750L tank weighs approximately 4.75 tons. It is critical that the tank is placed on a level, smooth concrete plinth (at least 150mm thick) to prevent structural failure and maintain the warranty.

2. Can this tank be buried underground? No, this is a vertical surface tank. If you need an underground solution, you must purchase a specifically engineered "Conservancy" or "Underground" tank designed to withstand soil pressure.

3. Does the Olive Green color attract heat? While darker colors can absorb more heat, the thickness of the polyethylene and the black inner lining provide excellent insulation, keeping the water temperature relatively stable.
