Normally the priciest component of the rainwater harvesting system, storage tanks, come in a wide selection of sorts and sizes. When choosing the kind of tank to use, the primary aspects to consider include your budget and where you live.
A myriad of variations on storage tanks and cisterns have been employed over the centuries as well as in different geographical regions: earthenware cisterns in India, large pottery containers in Africa, above ground vinyl-lined swimming pools in Hawaii, concrete or brick cisterns in the central Usa, and, in Texas and Colorado, galvanized steel tanks and site-built stone-and-mortar cisterns.
Tanks can be above or under ground. Variables such as outside temperature ranges, soil, and price needs to be used to decide whether a tank is set above or below ground. Some kinds of tanks are constructed to be entombed (i.e. polyethylene tanks designed for interment).
Hence, understanding all of the details about the options available since it should prove to be something you live with for a long time is vital to making a good decision regarding the kind of tank to buy. Below is a general summary of the various tank types to pick from and some of these characteristics.
Galvanized sheet metal tanks can be an enticing alternative. They're available in sizes that range from little tanks of 150 gallons to medium-sized tanks, and gallon 2,500 are lightweight and relocate to easy if required.
Most tanks are corrugated galvanized steel dunked in zinc that is hot to improve corrosion resistance. These tanks ought to be lined using a food-grade liner, typically polyethylene or PVC, or coated inside with epoxy paint. Liner or the paint will extend the life of the metal and, if being used for potable water, must be FDA and NSF approved for potability.
These tanks are for above ground use. Old or recycled tanks may contain lead and should be avoided. As they'll cause corrosion, bronze fittings and brass must not be joined directly to the tank. Additionally, care needs to be taken when cleaning these tanks, as a movie develops naturally on the inside of the tank, which coats the tank and inhibits corrosion.
