Horizontal Leg Tanks are for storage and are not to be pressurized.

 

This 65g water storage tank delivers practical reliability in a space-efficient footprint. The horizontal leg design offers distinct advantages for installations where floor space is limited but you need accessible water reserves. Unlike vertical water storage tanks that require ceiling clearance, this configuration fits comfortably under workbenches, in crawl spaces, or alongside equipment where headroom is restricted. The 39-inch length and 29.5-inch height create a low profile that maximizes usability in tight quarters while maintaining substantial capacity.

 

Advanced Construction for Long-Term Performance

 

The 65g horizontal tank for water storage excels in applications demanding chemical stability and temperature resilience. Rotational molding produces seamless construction without weak points from welding or assembly, reducing potential failure zones significantly. This manufacturing approach ensures consistent wall thickness throughout the container, distributing stress evenly during expansion and contraction cycles. The black coloration serves a functional purpose beyond aesthetics—it inhibits algae growth in stored water by blocking light penetration, maintaining water quality during extended storage periods.

 

Portable Yet Stable Water Storage Solution

 

At 32 pounds empty, this 65g tank for water storage remains manageable for repositioning without requiring heavy equipment, yet provides ample weight when filled to resist wind displacement in outdoor settings. The reinforced leg supports distribute the load effectively across uneven surfaces, eliminating the need for perfectly level platforms that some storage solutions demand. This adaptability proves invaluable in workshop environments, agricultural settings, or emergency preparedness installations where flexibility matters.

Frequently Asked Questions 

 

What makes polyethylene superior for a 65g water tank compared to metal alternatives?

Polyethylene construction eliminates corrosion concerns entirely, ensuring your stored water remains uncontaminated by rust or metallic taste. The material resists impacts that would dent or puncture metal tanks, while the seamless design prevents leaks at seams. Additionally, polyethylene doesn't conduct heat like metal, helping maintain more stable water temperatures in varying conditions.

 

Can this 65g tank for water storage handle freeze-thaw cycles?

While the tank itself tolerates temperature fluctuations down to freezing, water expands when frozen and can damage any container. For winter use, keep the tank in climate-controlled spaces or ensure water doesn't freeze solid. The 1.2 specific gravity rating means the tank handles thermal expansion from temperature changes during typical seasonal variations without issue.

 

How does the 8-inch lid facilitate maintenance and filling?

The wide-mouth opening provides excellent access for cleaning, inspection, and adding water treatment products. You can easily reach inside for thorough cleaning when needed, and the opening accommodates standard fill hoses without adapters. This accessibility distinguishes it from narrow-necked tanks that complicate maintenance tasks.

 

Is this 65g poly tank for water storage suitable for potable water?

Yes, the food-grade polyethylene construction meets FDA standards for potable water storage. However, always ensure incoming water is already safe for consumption, as the tank provides storage, not purification. Regular cleaning maintains water quality during storage.
