These tanks address specific water reserve requirements, ranging in capacity from 5,000 to 4 million gallons. Offering both hybrid and field-weld tank construction, they cater to various capacity needs. The tanks feature vertical standing seam insulation with aluminum panels laminated to polyisocyanurate foam, resulting in an R-value of 12.9. Tank immersion heaters enhance insulation performance, operating efficiently even in sub-zero temperatures. The system maintains precise level and temperature control with ultrasonic transmitters, automatic fill valves, and temperature switches. Renowned for their superior coating technology, Tank Connection also offers a proprietary fusion bond epoxy coating system, ensuring enhanced durability and resistance for various applications, including municipal, industrial, and agricultural projects.
