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?
