6 reasons concrete water tanks are great investment

Jan 15, 2023

A fresh water supply is a must in any home and especially these days that the summer months are getting longer. To ensure that they have enough fresh water, many households and establishments use a water reservoir, which, in most cases, are concrete water tanks. 

In NSW and VIC, Australia, Next Gen Concrete Tanks manufactures high-quality water tanks for residential, farm, and commercial applications. These concrete tanks are designed to last for a lifetime. These large-capacity water storage tanks provide families and businesses with the water supply needed for their day-to-day activities and operations. 

With a good quality water bank, you are assured that you are using clean and potable water at home and work. 

Water tanks mostly come in plastic and concrete types, with more users preferring the latter. What makes concrete tanks the better choice? We’ve listed some of their advantages below. 

1. Regulates temperature 

With a concrete water tank, you don’t have to worry about the water supply getting too warm during the summer months. Unlike plastic tanks, concrete tanks do not easily heat up.

2. Better taste 

Clients have observed that water stored in a concrete tank has a better taste since no plastic was involved in the manufacturing process of the container. There is no bitterness, odour, or acidity as well. 

3. Highly durable 

Since these water storage systems are made of concrete, they are naturally durable and require minimal maintenance. Cleaning them with a power washer is very easy too and you don’t need to worry about piercing a liner. The concrete tanks are also expected to be around for 50 to 100 years, almost being a storage system that lasts for a lifetime. Since it is made of concrete, these water tanks are fire-resistant, too.

4. Safe and hygienic

A properly maintained concrete water tank helps prevent your water supply from being contaminated with bacteria and pathogens, as well as the growth of algae. This ensures that the water consumed by your family throughout the year is safe and protected. 

5. Top-quality concrete water tanks 

There are several water storage systems, but they are never at par with each other for safety and quality. Next Gen concrete water tanks are AS3600 and AS3735 compliant with Australian regulations. The design of these concrete water tanks also includes a system that keeps them secure and upright even when left empty. This is in contrast with other tanks that are prone to wind damage and other external threats like vegetation growth or storms. 

6. Large capacity 

With most modern homes having more facilities, electronics, and bathrooms – the water consumption of the home changes. Next Gen Concrete Tanks can hold 150,000 litres of water, which is more than enough to accommodate the water needs of the entire family.
