Water Tanks Tasmania

Width over height, at scale

14,000 litres is real capacity. On the standard 2,600mm-footprint, you’d need to go taller than the 12,500L to get it, which puts the tank up around 2,500mm+ tall. The 14,000L takes a different route: wider base (3,400mm), keeps height at a moderate 1,550mm, same total volume. Pick this one when the block has width to spare and you don’t want another tall silhouette.

Aquaplate at 14,000 litres

Large tanks exaggerate the differences between construction types. Plain galvanised at this size, over a decade or two, develops visible rust at the water-contact line, picks up metallic taste, and eventually needs internal treatment or replacement. Aquaplate eliminates the problem by design: the Zincalume steel shell is bonded on the inside with a food-grade polymer film, AS/NZS 4020 certified for potable water. Water contacts polymer, not metal. 15-year warranty reflects the construction confidence.

Where this shape fits

Sprawling rural blocks with room alongside the shed. Heritage properties with fixed eave heights. Tree-change blocks where the owner wants the tank to sit quietly below the roof line rather than dominate it. Farmsteads where the wide base matches the barn’s proportions better than a tall silo would.

Fit-up included

500mm strainer basket inlet with stainless steel insect mesh, 90mm Rapid Seal overflow with removable screen, brass bibcock. Outlet configuration on request.
