Every business and home requires a water supply. Without access to a municipal system, that means a water tank located on or near the premises. Water tanks have traditionally been made of stainless steel, but due to advances in technology, they are available in all shape and sizes, and many different materials. Plastic tanks are an especially popular choice due to their weight, shape versatility, color options and cost. Due to the versatility of plastic, these tanks are the most cost-effective when custom ordering one or a small number of tanks. However, there is a vast variety of standard shapes, sizes and capacities from which to choose. The most common of the hard plastic varieties are the vertical flat bottom tanks, horizontal tanks and cone bottom tanks. The vertical flat bottom tanks are the most common, and the horizontal tanks are used in situations that require a lower profile. The cone-shaped tanks are used in scenarios where regular full drainage of the tank is required. Water tank manufacturers also make water tanks from plastic fabric. A prevalent example of this is the pillow tank, which is essentially a reinforced plastic bag that can be conformed to areas that metal and hard plastics cannot. We often see this type of tank used below the porch or patio of a residence. Manufacturers also opt for plastic for portable water tanks, such as the collapsible tank and the onion tank. These types of plastic tank are preferred as temporary solutions. In addition to cost savings, there are a number of benefits to plastic tanks over metal ones. Plastic tanks never rust and thus last far longer. Plastic is much lighter, so not only is it easier to install, you generally save additional money on shipping. If the tank will be installed above ground, plastic can be colored easily so that it blends into the environment and is not an eyesore. However, plastic tanks make for a great choice for tanks that will be buried below ground due to the relative ease with which they are buried. If you’re unsure that a plastic tank suits your needs, consult with a professional. Today, there are few cases where stainless steel is preferable when both materials are applicable.
