Why steel is best
Steel Tanks are the BEST tanks
There are many very sound reasons why you should choose a steel tank over any other, and the NUMBER #1 reason is that it will LAST LONGER.
Slimline Rainwater Tanks are manufactured using Colorbond Aquaplate Bluescope® Steel, and we guarantee that your Slimline Rainwater Tank will provide you with many years of service and value for money.
When you choose a Slimline Rainwater Tank you can rest assured that Steel is simply the BEST…
- Steel Tanks are strong, durable and will last on average 25 years.
- Steel Tanks are completely unaffected by ultra violet light, unlike their polyethylene competitors which break down over time. With light penetration comes algae which will spoil your drinking water and may damage your pump.
- Steel Tanks won't taint the taste of your drinking water, whereas the jury is still out when it comes to the long term quality of water stored in poly tanks;
- Steel Tanks are completely non-flammable and certainly won't melt or emit toxic fumes during a fire making them safe to place on the boundary of your property.
- Steel Tanks are 100% recyclable making them more environmentally friendly than poly tanks which are manufactured using petrochemicals and are in no way useful at end of service life.
- Steel Tanks have consistent wall thickness and strength, whereas poly tanks have been known to fail as a result of inconsistent manufacturing processes which can cause critically thin walls.
- The annual environmental burden of a water tank made from Aquaplate is equivalent to one 100W light bulb switched on for a week.
- Finally, Steel Tanks look great! Stylish, smooth and finished in Colorbond® which won't peel or fade like regular painted galvanized tanks can.
Australian families have relied on Steel Tanks for generations, it's a tradition of quality you can rely on and which is fully backed with a 5 Year Manufacturing Warranty.
