Types of Water Tanks

Many homes use rainwater tanks to harvest water for landscaping/gardening applications rather than as a potable (drinkable) water surrogate. Water tanks may be constructed from materials such as plastic (polyethylene), concrete, plastered brickwork, galvanized steel, as well as fibreglass and stainless steel which are rust and chemical-resistant. By far the most popular and cost effective rainwater ranks are the plastic polyethylene tanks which are available from Water Rhapsody dealers. It is imperative that the tanks are opaque to prevent the exposure of stored water to sunlight, to eliminate the possibility of algal growth.

Rainwater Harvesting

* Rainwater harvesting is the collection, storage and distribution of rainwater and the perfect storage facility for rainwater is a water tank. * Rainwater can essentially be used anywhere you use tap water. * The idea of using drinking water to flush toilets and water lawns is wasteful and irresponsible, especially in light of the population growth and water shortages across the country.
