175 Upright Water Tank
Product Overview
The 175 Litre Car Valeting Water Tank is a robust and practical solution for the storage and transportation of potable water and other compatible liquids.
Manufactured from durable HDPE / polyethylene, this upright tank is designed specifically for applications where a reliable mobile water supply is required, making it particularly well suited to car valeting, vehicle cleaning and mobile cleaning equipment.
The natural semi-translucent finish allows the water level to be viewed through the tank, providing a convenient way to monitor the remaining contents without having to open the tank.
With a 175 litre nominal capacity and an empty weight of approximately 14 kg, the tank provides a useful balance between water storage capacity, portability and ease of installation.

Compact & Practical Upright Design
With dimensions of approximately 290 × 1100 × 620 mm, this upright water tank provides a substantial water storage capacity while maintaining a relatively compact footprint.
The upright design makes efficient use of available floor space, making the tank particularly suitable for vehicles, mobile valeting systems, cleaning equipment and other applications where floor space is limited.
Its relatively low empty weight of 14 kg also makes the tank easier to handle and position before it is filled.
Ideal for Car Valeting
The 175 Litre Car Valeting Water Tank is particularly suited to professional and mobile car valeting applications, providing a convenient supply of water where a mains water connection may not be readily available.
Its 175-litre capacity provides a useful reserve of water for mobile cleaning work, while the standard outlet allows compatible taps, hoses and other equipment to be connected.
The tank can also be paired with suitable pumps and pressure washing equipment depending on the requirements of the application.

Overseas orders
International orders are welcome. Payment is by IBAN / SWIFT / BIC, MoneyGram and letters of credit. We regret that credit cards are not accepted for international orders.
A purchase order is required; we will then create a pro-forma invoice, and tanks are ordered on clearance of funds.
If you require additional export documentation — for example a Certificate of Origin, or commercial invoices certified by the Chamber of Commerce — you must notify us before completion of your order, as we will have to invoice cost and admin charges to the order.
