Why Fire Sprinkler Water Storage Tanks Are Essential
Fire water storage tanks hold a dedicated supply of water which is reserved for emergencies. This water can be used to supply a sprinkler system in the event of a fire. This water supply is essential for firefighting methods and a legal obligation for many buildings.

Our tanks can be customised to fit the specific needs of various businesses, including commercial, industrial and residential premises. We offer a range of capacities and configurations, ensuring you have the right solution that meets your fire protection requirements.

FAQs
Why do fire sprinklers need a dedicated water tank?
In most buildings, it’s a legal requirement to have a dedicated water tank for fire sprinklers. This is because it’s essential to ensure there is always sufficient water supply to power sprinklers, in the event of an emergency.
How do I know what size tank my building needs?
The capacity will depend on your building’s fire protection requirements, for example, the size of your building, whether there are any specific fire risks and what the local regulations are in your area. Our team can help assess your needs to decide the most appropriate tank size and configuration for your business.
How do I maintain the fire sprinkler water tank?
Your tank should be inspected annually, with a professional inspection. During this inspection our team will look for signs of wall panels, corrosion or contamination. Recommendations for remedial work will be offered, if necessary. In between yearly inspections, you should give the tank a once over now and then to look for any signs of minor faults.
What maintenance services do you offer?
We offer advanced drone surveys which are a quick and efficient way to check the condition of your tank. Using a drone enables us to inspect hard-to-reach areas safely.
