5000 Litre Underground Rainwater Water Tank System

This 5000 litre (1000 gallons) below ground flat water tank is ideal for those situations where a classic round tank is not possible (in high water tables, difficult ground conditions, or even if you just cannot get a round tank into the garden!) The Flat Tank, by its design, also greatly reduces the volume of excavated earth. No concrete needed, only gravel is required - this reduces the time and cost of installation considerable.

Suitable for high water table - the flat tank can be installed into much higher water tables than a standard round tank. If you do not know what your water table will be like in the winter, you''re safer to install a flat tank. Shallow tank for safe, easy maintenance. Reduction in excavated earth - a standard round tank will, required 58m² to be excavated from the ground. This 5000L flat tank only requires 9.6m² of excavated earth!

• Child proof locks - safer alternative to just using screws, which will wear out over time and leave the tank being a safety hazard in the ground. 2 professional child locks provided with all walk on covers. The special fastener (rotary mechanism from stainless steel) with two specially strong safety loops can be installed easily and quickly.
  
  Anti frost lids - the cover is walkable up to 150 kg and dual skinned for improved frost protection.
  
  The new shaft system shows a clearly improved fitting accuracy. The tank cover sits neatly and is twist protected on the shaft frame to prevent dirt entering. Drain gutters avoid the entering of surface water into the tank.
  
  Optional extras: VS60 shaft extension height 63.5cm 60cm dia & 1 x walk on cover. 
  
  Non Potable. Delivery 10-14 days.
