Concrete Fire Fighting Water Storage Tanks

Concrete water tanks provide the best solution for storing water for fire fighting. These tanks are best for use in regional Australia. Concrete tanks differ from poly tanks because they are heat resistant. Therefore these tanks do not warp or collapse when there is a big fire outbreak on your premises.

This aspect is vital for fire fighting and ensures that your premises have water for your stock and personal requirements when there is a limited supply of water. In addition, your regular water pump may have insufficient flow and pressure on big fire-fighting hoses to ensure that your property is safe. Under these circumstances, it is best to ensure that you can use your tank for this objective at any time. For this reason, you need suitable pumps and hoses.

Problems That Affect Fire Water Tanks

Tanks can collapse due to corrosion. Because of this, we inspect your fire tank for any likely water leakage. We also check for signs of corrosion and erosion. Additionally, we determine whether the soil has accumulated near the tank. Our maintenance services also include inspecting root systems and foliage from nearby trees that may interfere with your fire water storage tank.

Our team has made various site visits after brushfires. We observed that tanks manufactured from materials other than metal are prone to failure. Most of these tanks also fail due to extreme heat (in instances where the fire was some meters away).

Australian Standards For Fire Fighting Water Storage Tanks

Metal and concrete tanks are ideal for use as fire-fighting tanks. Comparatively, these tanks have more prominent outlets than tanks used in the home or garden.

In 2012 new fire-fighting Australian Standards (AS) were developed. Fire fighting tank manufacturers should follow these standards; for instance, (AS) 2304-2011. One requirement stipulates that special liners should be installed in fire fighting tanks. Also, your underground tank needs an access hole of a minimum of 200mm. It enables the tank to refill directly from the tank.

Sources of water that fight fires are either DWS (dedicated) or SWS (static). Dedicated means the water is used for fire fighting only. So the water does not experience issues with quality.

Sources for fire fighting water should flow fast. In addition, fire-resistant fittings should be fitted on the fire fighting tanks and be able to be disconnected or connected quickly. In light of this ATM, Tanks fit Vortex plates or Storz inhibitors.

These fittings have interlocking flanges and hinges. Hence they connect and disconnect efficiently, providing a firm watertight seal. We fit a Vortex inhibitor to your fire-fighting water storage tank outlet. It stops the accumulation of turbulence, which reduces the water flow speed.
