Detention Tanks
The storm water detention tank receives water from roof and driveway run-off and release it slowly into the storm water system. This is achieved by installing a tank of a suitable size with restricted outlet(s). Tank volumes and outlet sizes are designed by your engineer.
Once full the water flows out of a 100mm overflow outlet. These tanks empty completely. Tanks may be above ground or buried depending on council requirements -if the tank receives water from driveway areas then the tanks need to be buried.
Storm water control is a council requirement for most properties. Fibreglass Tanks & Manufacturing provides tanks to meet council requirements for both storm water detention and storm water retention.
Retention Tanks
The retention tank receives water from roof downpipe and stores it for use in toilet flushing, washing machines and/or outside taps. Excess water flows out a 100mm overflow to stormwater disposal. These tanks often have automatic top up from council supply to prevent them running out of water. These tanks may be above ground or buried.
A pressure controlled pump is required to supply the water. The pump may be surface mounted with a cover and suitable run-dry protection, or a submersible pressure pump may be installed in the tank, eliminating the need for a pump cover and external controls.
We can size and supply a suitable pump to meet use requirements.
FTM can supply above ground tanks from 450 to 22,300 Litres.
We can supply buried tanks from 1000 to 9000 Litres.
