Tips for selecting your new water tank

It is best to choose the largest tank that will fit into your available area and then feed rainwater from as much roof area as practical into your tank. Here are some other useful tips:

A. Normal garden hosing can use up to 1000 litres per hour of water. A 5000 litre water tank will therefore provide around 5 hours of watering time. Make sure you size the tank to meet your expectations.

B. One metre squared of roof area will provide one litre of water for every millimetre of rain. Maximising the roof area feeding to your tank is the best way to ensure you collect as much water as possible.

C. Be aware that every 1000 litres of water is one tonne of weight. This is a factor in considering the location of your tank. Be sure not to place in an area with unstable ground or too close to existing house footings. Refer to back page for base guidelines.

D. Remember you will need to access the leaf strainer to clean out leaves. This may be a consideration when deciding the height and location of your tank.
