10 Water-Saving Tips for Plastic Water Storage Tank Owners

1. Install a Rainwater Harvesting Tank

Investing in a poly water tank allows you to harvest rainwater and recycle greywater for irrigation, cleaning, flushing toilets, and other non-drinking applications. This helps lower water bills and supports sustainable living.

2. Upgrade to Water-Efficient Appliances

Modern dishwashers, washing machines, dual-flush toilets, and water-saving sanitary systems use significantly less water than older models.

3. Repair Leaks Immediately

A leaking tap can waste over 2,000 litres of water every month. Regularly inspect taps, toilets, pipes, and fittings for leaks.

4. Reduce Unnecessary Toilet Flushing

Avoid flushing tissues, cotton wool, and hygiene products. Consider installing low-flow toilets or water-saving cistern systems.

5. Create a Water-Wise Garden

Replace thirsty lawns with indigenous plants, succulents, gravel, or paving. Avoid overwatering and use harvested rainwater from your RotoTank™ for irrigation.

6. Turn Off Taps When Not in Use

Simple habits like turning off the tap while brushing teeth or washing hands can save hundreds of litres each month.

7. Cover Your Swimming Pool

Pool covers reduce evaporation and heat loss. Rainwater harvested in your storage tank can also help top up your pool naturally.

8. Reuse Water Wherever Possible

Don’t waste reusable water. Greywater and rainwater can be used for washing cars, cleaning outdoor areas, and watering gardens.

9. Take Shorter Showers

Switching from baths to shorter showers dramatically reduces household water usage. Collect unused cold water while waiting for hot water to arrive.

10. Support Water Conservation Initiatives

Follow local water restrictions, support sustainable businesses, and encourage responsible water management in your community.

Important Water Tank Installation Guidelines

Installing large plastic water tanks is straightforward when proper procedures are followed. RotoTank™ provides technical specifications and installation guidance with every tank purchase.

When installing your vertical water tank, remember the following:

  • Install tank fittings using flexible piping or bellows
  • Ensure the tank stands on a solid, level base
  • Never allow tank overhang beyond the base
  • Tighten fittings securely without overtightening
  • Select the correct tank size and specification for your application
  • Never move or lift the tank while full
  • Keep tanks away from excessive heat or exhaust gases

Proper installation ensures maximum lifespan, structural integrity, and optimal performance of your water storage system.
