A: BURYING POLY RAINWATER TANKS (GUIDE ONLY)
- YOU MUST SEEK AN ENGINEERS ADVICE REGARDING YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION.
- As a guide only we recommend that you do not bury your tank anymore than 1 metre into the ground.
- You must dig your hole 300mm (12”) wider than the base diameter of your tank. If two tanks are to be buried side by side then separate holes must be dug.
- Prepare tank base as per our INSTALLATION AND TANK BASE PREPARATION REQUIREMENTS.
- Completely fill tank with water first then backfill the hole with compacted cracker dust and cement powder. Compact 75-100mm (3-4”) at a time. We also suggest that you erect a fence for safety reasons around the tank. Backfill Ratio = 3 parts cracker dust to 1 part cement powder
NOTE: The above instructions are a guide only. We advise that you seek an Engineers advice for your particular situation before attempting any of the above. Incorrect installation will result in Warranties being made void.
