| Concrete Vs Gravel | |
| A concrete base has to be cured before installation. | There is no delay with a gravel/sand base. |
| Concrete is permanent, It's almost impossible to make changes in the future, mistakes are extremely costly. | With a gravel backfill, it is much more realistic should changes ever be needed in the future. |
| Concrete is solid, and will not cope with ground movement. Which over time can easily crack the surround damaging the tank. | Using a gravel backfill, and a tank designed to flex, means you can be confident it will handle the normal ground movement over the years. |

WHY REWATEC?
No Concrete Needed
Rewatec tanks only need a gravel surround, this is because we use Polyethylene as a material. A cheap tank, such as a tank made from GRP, will normally require a concrete backfill.
Single Piece Tank
A Rewatec tank will always come in one piece. Some companies hide the fact that their tank will come in 2 sections to be built onsite. The cost of the building the tank onsite is rarely factored in by your builder (not just the tank but the filter, and calming inlet too!). Furthermore a single piece does not have a join, so there is not the added risk of splitting when it is in the ground. Paying a little extra for a one piece tank means you will save money in the installation process, so why risk it?
Joins can:
- Leak
- Require careful sealing
- Take more time to install
- Create a weak point on the tank
- Cost more money to install
Buy a single piece Rewatec tank with confidence!
Our Prebuilt in Filter, Calming Inlet and Overflow Siphon
Make sure you have a prebuilt in filter with your tank. Many tanks come with the filter, calmed inlet and overflow siphon as a kit which your builder will have to put together on site. This can take a long time as they are not always experienced. Our tanks can come with the filter and calming inlet built in so you don't have to think about this sometimes costly job. Mistakes can prove costly in the future. Visit our filter tank page to see how the filter, calming inlet and overflow siphon will help you.
Anti Frost Lids with Child Proof Locks
All Rewatec covers are walkable up to 150Kg and dual skinned for improved frost protection. The Child proof locks are a safer alternative to just using screws, which will wear out over time and can leave the tank being a safety hazard in the ground.
Suitable for High Water Tables without Concrete
The F-line tank can be installed into much higher water tables than a standard round tank. If you don't know what your water table will be like in the winter, you're safer to install a flat tank.
Shallow Tank for Safe, Easy Maintenance
Over the years you may need access to the tank. A typical 5000L tank can be, when installed, 2.5 metres deep. Consider the ease and cost of any future maintenance. The Rewatec 5000L F-line tank has a body height of only 88cm, this removes a lot of the risk of accessing the tank. Try looking into a 2.5m deep hole... it's a daunting sight!
Reduction in Excavated Earth
A standard round tank will, require 58m3 to be excavated from the ground. The 5000L F-line tank only requires 9.6m3 of excavated earth!
Unique Anti-Buoyancy Technology
The Monolith tank can be installed completely in groundwater, due to its unique ribbed design, weight and shape. A tank that has not been designed for these deep water conditions should not be used in them. Putting concrete around a tank is not the answer to a high water table. Almost every ground worker can tell you a story of a tank popping out of the ground after is has been installed and surrounded in concrete, that is because the tank itself wasn't designed to deal with the effect of buoyancy. The MONOLITH tank, with anti-buoyancy technology, installed correctly, without concrete will happily cope with the most adverse conditions. Always consult the installation manual, installations require earth coverage over tank.
