Sep

The term “tank to pump connection” usually refers to the plumbing between a water storage tank and the pump. On a standard connection, the hose is usually a flexi hose to absorb any movement and there is a ball valve together with clamps.  Things you might wish to consider for your tank to pump connection:

  1. Choose the Right Pump: Before creating the connection, it’s crucial to choose an appropriate pump for the job. Pumps come in various types, such as centrifugal pumps, external pumps, and submersible pumps, each suited for different purposes.  Please contact us for more information if you have any concerns with what pump is ‘right’ for your job.

Water tank delivery differs depending on what style and size of tank is delivered.

Slimline water tanks and round tanks < 6,000 litres

In most cases your tank will be delivered via truck and trailer. Servicing the East Coast of Australia takes hours of logistics. Tanks are grouped into delivery areas. We attempt to be at the first drop off location by 7am. A few days prior to delivery of your water tank, the driver will contact you with a delivery time. From years of experience we are usually pretty accurate with delivery of Water Tank times. The odd occasion occurs where we may be running behind schedule due to road works, or difficulty at a previous delivery. Read the rest

Yes – this is an easy question to answer and there is a reasonably cheap way to supply your house with fresh clean water from your water tank.

Firstly, you will need a water tank.  For domestic residences we would recommend a 4,000 or 5,000 tank in the slimline range.  For a rural blocks and potentially no mains water connected blocks, we would recommend the largest round tank that fits your budget and rain fall quota to ensure continuous water supply.
