Water Storage Made Simple

After one of the worst droughts in Australia’s history and further compounded by another winter of below average rainfall, a simple solution is needed for households to collect and save rainwater. The new handytank™ water tank is that simple solution.

The DIY handytank™ water tank is a 1000 Litre water storage tank developed with the urban environment in mind. The handytank™ water tank comes in a flat-pack box and can be easily transported home in most family cars and will take no more than 20 minutes to assemble.

The handytank™ water tank is a durable marine grade PVC bladder supported by a clip together tubular zinc plated steel frame enclosed by an attractive mesh cover. The unit has inbuilt connections and tank fittings supplied. All threaded fittings are 18mm (3/4”) BSP

The innovative design of the handytank™ water tank offers various plumbing options. The quickest of these is to simply direct the down pipe straight to the top surface of the handytank™, capturing all rainwater. Then connect the overflow outlet (using the flexible pipe provided with the handytank™) to the base of the existing down pipe and the handytank™ water tank is ready for use.The handytank™ water tank can be easily relocated or packed away and stored. For greater capacity two or more handytanks™ can be plumbed together or simply install one at each down pipe.

For households looking for a cost effective way to collect and save water, the DIY handytank™ water tank is the obvious choice. It is quick and easy to install and due to its compact dimensions requires little space (120cm diameter). The harvested water is ideal for watering gardens and lawns or for washing cars, boats and paving and is good for the environment too.

With many councils and state governments offering rebates to households who choose to install a water tank, the already cost effective handytank™ water tank will become an even more attractive option, while at the same time helping save our most precious resource; water.
