Capacity When it comes to water storage, the first thing you need to consider is the capacity of the water tank. It depends on the amount of domestic water and the number of people for all daily needs such as drinking water, cooking, cleaning and washing. A typical family of 4 people needs about 1000 liters per day. Large buildings with hundreds of people should prefer larger tonnage polyethylene water tanks. From 100 liters to 20000 liters of polyethylene water tanks up to 500 tons of different water tanks, please consult Santaş water tanks sales representative. Color When it comes to water storage systems, color plays an important role in preventing algae growth. It is important to have a dark opaque layer in the tank to prevent light from entering the tank and causing algae growth. For this reason, you can choose our double-layer and triple-layer polyethylene water tanks. Durability: This is an important factor when choosing a water tank. The water tank must be robust and strong to withstand outdoor temperature changes, animal attacks, internal pressure of water and other factors. The material of the tank should be high density original linear polyethylene, which provides strength and can withstand current threats and prevent leaks. Number of Layers: In a 3-layer polyethylene water tank, the inner layer of white color provides suitability for drinking water, the middle dark gray layer provides strength, and the outer UV-protected layer provides durability and resistance to hot and cold climate changes. Installation: The ground your tank is placed on affects the water pressure, which can directly affect the water flow. Overhead tanks serve to meet daily water needs. On the other hand, underground tanks and tanks placed at ground level allow for emergency water storage in case of water shortage. Duration of Use: Better quality means longer periods of safe storage service. You can use your tanks for many years if the instructions for use are followed and the most important issue, which is the most effective factor in the life of the tanks, is the use of flat concrete floors without slopes. Price When comparing the prices offered by different water tank suppliers in the market, please learn their features (the originality of the raw material used, whether the tank molds used are old / new, the calculation of the water intake capacity with the dimensions of the water tank, how many layers the tank has, whether it passes the sun’s rays) and then decide to buy. Do not compromise on quality because quality cannot be bought cheaply. You can use your water tanks for decades, as long as you don’t choose them just because they are cheap. Ultraviolet (UV) protection: Prolonged exposure to UV radiation in sunlight causes unprotected water tanks to crack, break and burst. It also affects the physical properties of the water tank, causing discoloration and loss of strength. When UV stabilizers are added to the polyethylene resin during the production of the tank, the plastic structure is protected from the effects of UV radiation, which increases the durability of the tank.
– The factors to be considered when choosing a water tank are the intended use of the water tank and where the tank will be located. – The most hygienic and economical storage method for drinking water is polyethylene. Our polyethylene water tanks, with the advantage of double-layer and three-layer production technology, do not absorb the sun’s rays and do not cause algae and odor. – Since polyethylene tanks are usually located in outdoor conditions, UV additives are required for long-lasting use. The last layers of our tanks are always UV stabilized. The material of the warehouse to be selected for chemical storage must be suitable for the chemical to be stored. Polyethylene tanks are suitable for chemical use as they do not interact with the material stored in them. It provides special production according to the material to be stored. – In warehouses with narrow door entrances, either our vertical type narrow 1000 liter polyethylene warehouses should be used or modular system should be used. In modular tanks, you can choose from ready-made electro pre galvanized, hot dip galvanized, 304 quality chrome, 316 quality chrome and GRP tanks according to your budget and intended use. – For your underground rainwater, roof gutter water, waste water, septic tank, you can choose our special production underground polyethylene tanks or fiber underground tanks. – You can evaluate our polyethylene, modular, inflatable, composite or fiber tanks among our water tanks according to the type of domestic water, drinking water, fire water tank, septic tank waste water or chemical. – Factors such as the ability to clean the inside of the tank, long tank strength, how many liters or tonnage will be sufficient for use are also very important for tank selection.
