Selecting a high-quality water tank is crucial for ensuring reliable water storage and distribution while minimising the risk of contamination. A high-quality water tank offers proper sealing, smooth interior surfaces, resistance to UV degradation, etc., all of which contribute to maintaining water hygiene and safety.These features are important, but not every water storage tank manufacturer offers them since different quality materials are used to make a wide variety of water tanks. Here, we offer you a comparison of a 5 layer TMT Plus water tank and what makes it stand apart from other tanks in the market. Among the different tanks available in the market, some are:
Stainless Steel Tanks
Stainless steel water tanks are made from stainless steel, a corrosion-resistant alloy that is known for its durability and longevity. This is a non-porous material that does not absorb odours, flavours or contaminants, which ensures that the water stored in these tanks remains clean and free from impurities. These tanks can withstand several temperatures and have a smooth, non-corrosive surface, which limits the build-up of contaminants and eliminates the need for frequent cleaning.Fibreglass Tanks
These water tanks are made from a composite material consisting of glass fibres and a thermosetting resin. Fibreglass tanks are known for their high strength-to-weight ratio and are significantly lighter than traditional materials like steel. These tanks do not corrode or rust, so they can have a long lifespan if they are maintained properly. Though it is UV-resistant, prolonged exposure to the sun can lead to its degradation over time.Bladder Tanks
Bladder tanks are flexible, collapsible containers designed to store and transport various liquids. The bladder has an outer shell that provides it with support and protection, ensuring that it maintains its shape and remains durable. This bladder is designed to expand as it fills with liquid and contract as the liquid is emptied. It is versatile and can be used for storing various liquids, including potable water, industrial liquids, etc. One of the key advantages of bladder tanks is their space efficiency.Concrete Tanks
These water tanks are robust and durable structures, whose primary material used to make them is concrete. These, unlike other tanks, have a customisable design and can be created in any shape or form to match your requirements. However, the main problem with these tanks is that they are prone to damage, cracks and leaks. On top of that, these tanks are extremely heavy, making them susceptible to any sort of movement.Galvanized Steel Tanks
Galvanised steel tanks are made from steel and coated with a layer of zinc to protect against corrosion. This process creates a water tank that is more durable and corrosion-resistant. These tanks are commonly used for various liquid storage applications, including water storage, agricultural storage, etc. The primary benefit of galvanised steel tanks is their enhanced corrosion resistance. This also allows it to have a longer lifespan as compared to untreated steel tanks.What Makes TMT Plus 5 Layer Water Tank Different?
TMT Plus offers the best water tanks in India and its 5 layer water tank is one of a kind as it has the ability to keep the water cool even in the most extreme climatic conditions. This is possible because it has an added dual foam layer, which helps ensure double insulation. Other than that, it also has a top high-definition cover layer, which makes this tank 100% UV radiation-proof.Besides this, since this water tank is manufactured using the highest-quality material, it has several features that make it stand out from other tank materials. The 5 layers of this tank are:
First Layer: Reflective Shield
The first layer of the water tank is a high-quality reflecting shield intended to redirect external heat sources. This reflecting barrier effectively reduces heat absorption, keeping the water temperature in the tank.Second Layer: Foam Insulation Layer
This layer contains a specific foam insulation that acts as a barrier between the external environment and the tank's water. It's intended to provide superior thermal insulation while also acting as a buffer against temperature fluctuations, allowing the ideal temperature to be maintained for a long time.Third Layer: UV Shielding
The third layer has UV shielding, which helps safeguard the stored water from the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation. This helps prevent the formation of algae and other contaminants while also extending its life by protecting it from UV-induced degradation and maintaining its structural integrity over time.Fourth Layer: Enhanced Insulation Foam Layer
This additional foam insulation layer enhances thermal efficiency and offers superior heat retention capabilities. This water tank is highly cost-effective since the insulation properties of this tank help you keep the water in the tank at your desired temperature, regardless of external conditions.Fourth Layer: Antimicrobial Layer
The last layer is an antimicrobial coating designed to stop the growth of bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms. This layer ensures that the stored water remains free from harmful pathogens, thus promoting health and hygiene, preserving water quality and preventing the onset of waterborne illnesses.USPs of TMT Plus Water Storage Tanks
No Biofilm Formation
Biofilms are thin layers of microorganisms, such as bacteria, algae, and other microbes, that adhere to surfaces and create a protective layer of extracellular polymeric substances. The lack of biofilm may suggest that the water tanks are being well maintained and cleaned regularly.Consistent Wall Thickness
Maintaining a consistent wall thickness in water tanks contributes to the overall structural integrity, performance, and durability of the tanks. A uniform wall thickness helps distribute loads and stresses more evenly across the entire tank structure. It also ensures that they remain stable and resistant to deformation when exposed to extreme temperatures.Made From High-Quality LLDPE Resin
LLDPE is Linear Low-Density Polyethylene and we at TMT Plus use this 100% virgin raw material in the production of our 5 layer water tanks. Besides adding durability and strength, it also instils the qualities of being weatherproof and having a long shelf life in the product.Roto Mould Technology
Rotomould technology is a specialised moulding technique that involves heating a plastic material in a mould while the mould is rotated around two perpendicular axes. It involves three stages, which involve loading and unloading, gas ovens generating heat, and the cooling process. This technology offers easy and seamless production, enables uniform wall thickness, allows design flexibility, etc.Ultimately, the choice of a water tank should be based on your specific requirements. Always prioritise quality and consider factors such as materials, construction methods, certifications, and customer reviews when making your decision. TMT Plus not only checks these boxes but passes them with flying colours by giving the highest regard to product quality for customers.
