PILLOWTANK WATER BLADDERS vs GALVANIZED DAMS (or plastic tanks)

PILLOWTANK WATER BLADDERS

  • Much easier to set up – only levelled, clean ground surface required
  • Much lighter and smaller to transport
  • Semi-skilled people to install
  • Installation time a few hours after ground preparation
  • Long lifespan: Expected to last conservatively 12–15 years with proper use.
  • Price per litre even with transport costs a lot cheaper
  • No sunlight penetration – completely closed system, black inner surface
  • Resilient design: Engineered to withstand tough conditions and can be easily repaired if damaged.
  • Constant water temperature of around 27 degrees, even if 90% empty

GALVANIZED DAMS/PLASTIC TANKS

  • A lot of preparation required, normally including a concrete ground slab or ring beam before installation
  • Transport costs a lot higher
  • Trained installers required
  • Installation time a few days after more extensive ground preparation
  • Life span could be about the same, rust possibly sets in earlier
  • Price per litre much more expensive, transport and installation added on.
  • No sunlight penetration ONLY IF A DOMED ROOF is installed
  • Possibly open to vandalism – removing flange, entering through roof?

With almost 10 years of experience, we provide guidance on fittings, installation, and ongoing support.
