When choosing a water tank, having decided on the capacity and type, one is faced with choices relating to the type of material used to construct the water tank as well as brand.
Here are 6 quick reasons why polyethylene or ‘plastic’ water tanks are almost always the best choice:
- Generally, poly water tanks are less expensive than fibreglass or steel water tanks
- Poly water tanks are light in weight making them easy to transport, manoeuvre and install
- Good quality plastic water tanks that are made using the rotational moulding process do not have seams and are less likely to split or crack (whereas steel water tanks inevitably have at least 3 seams or joins)
- Polyethylene is resistant to a wide range of chemicals and will not corrode or rust like steel water tanks will (even stainless steel water tanks can be subject to corrosion in certain circumstances)
- Plastic water tanks are also generally available in a wider range of sizes, types and shapes compared to fibreglass or steel tanks
- Most poly water tank manufacturers offer tanks in a variety of colours, unlike steel water tanks
When choosing poly or plastic water tanks, ensure that the manufacturer offers a warranty or guaranty and avoid cheap, no-name brand tanks that may not even last a year. In South Africa, Jojo Tanks offer an 8-year warranty on all their vertical and horizontal water tanks. Another excellent feature of JoJo water tanks is their inner black lining (made from FDA-approve, food-grade material) that inhibits algae growth and keeps stored water fresher for longer. JoJo water tanks are also UV-protected ensuring that the tanks do not fade or crack under harsh African conditions.
