HERITAGE WATER TANKS MOUNT GAMBIER

Water Tanks – Mount Gambier

Mount Gambier is the second most populated city in South Australia with an estimated urban population of 28,929. The city is located on the slopes of Mount Gambier (volcano) in the south-east of the state, about 450 kilometres south-east of the capital Adelaide and just 17 kilometres from the Victorian border, it is the most important settlement in the Limestone Coast region.

Mount Gambier is a major regional centre and is driven by tourism, hospitality, retail, professional services, government administration and education. The city’s historic primary industry roots including mining, agriculture and forestry, which continue to play a key role. Mount Gambier is also a major road transport and trucking centre.

The Mount’s main catchment is the Blue Lake, the volcano lake is both a tourist attraction and the city’s main reservoir and the city’s water supply is provided by South East Catchment Water Management Board. Aside from this surface water catchment, the community is largely dependent on groundwater for commercial and industrial operations in the region.

Water is no longer the freely available commodity that has been in the past and the community will need to have a stronger focus on harvesting and storing high-quality water in order to meet demand in the future.

If you would like to increase your water storage capacity for your business or provide an alternative domestic supply for your home, Heritage Water Tanks can offer high-quality water tanks for all your water harvesting and storage needs.

Why are our tanks suited to South Australian conditions?

#1 - Heritage Water Tanks catch more rain

It is predicted that South Australia will experience the effects of climate change through more variable seasons and reduced rainfall in years to come. With this in mind, people living in regional SA will need to be more mindful about water security and water storage solutions. This is why Heritage Water Tank's unique gutter system is more important than ever. With our rainwater collection system, which collects water from the roof of your tank, you can save up to 22% of your tank's volume in additional water each year. Our unique gutter system also prevents scouring around the base of your tank in high rainfall areas, as almost all of the runoff from the roof of your tank is collected back inside the tank.

Patent 2009208055A1

The steel used in the production of our water tanks is a minimum of 1mm thick. This is thicker than the material used by most of our competitors and to a profile designed in consultation with Engineers to provide superior strength and exceptional durability.

With increasingly frequent extreme weather events predicted in the future, the need for a tank that can withstand the elements is vital. Our water tank walls are made from the proven, highly corrosion resistant ZINCALUME® G300, alloy coated, structural steel.

#3 - Heritage Water Tanks Arma Liner

Heritage Water Tanks Arma Liner is manufactured to the highest standards. We won't compromise on quality, which is why we provide high-quality industrial-grade liners for our tanks. Under independent testing conditions, our liners were rated on lineal weight or weight per square meter and were found to weigh 700g/m2. This was of particular interest because our closest competitor's liner weighed under 500g/m2.

The high density of our liner makes it one of the heaviest liners in the Australian Domestic Water Tank Industry. Extra weight means extra density. This testing also identified our ARMA Liner as the best in relation to Shear Strength, Tear Strength and Puncture Resistance, compared to the Aqualiner and Infinity liners of our competitors at the time of testing.

Water Tank Sizes & Capacities

Choosing the right tank for your needs should not be a difficult task. Use our RAINWATER HARVEST CALCULATOR to see how much water you can collect from the surface of your house and any sheds you plan to collect water from. Most households with 4 people use around 240,000kL per year for general household use. If you have more people in your household or if you have a large garden, you may need more storage.
