What do you need from me to quote a water tank?
Please tell us the capacity you need (gallons or litres), the space available (diameter or length, width and height), the application (house, building, factory, rainwater), whether you prefer PE or FRP, the quantity, and the delivery location.
What water tanks do you make?
PE (polyethylene) tanks in the CT closed-top, BUMI round open-top and SEGI square open-top series, from 30 to 4,400 gallons; FRP Mui Tanks in closed-top round, open-top round and open-top square or rectangular shapes, from 60 to 27,680 gallons; and FRP sectional panel tanks for larger capacities.
What is the biggest water tank you have?
The largest PE tank is the CT 4000-4400 at 4,400 gallons (about 20,000 litres). The largest one-piece FRP Mui Tank is a 4.0 m diameter closed-top tank of up to 27,680 gallons. For bigger or modular storage, choose an FRP sectional panel water tank assembled on site.
What do the two numbers in a model like CT 1300-1500 mean?
The first number is the effective capacity you can use and the second is the nominal capacity, both in imperial gallons. A CT 1300-1500 gives 1,300 gallons usable and 1,500 gallons nominal.
Is the tank safe for drinking water?
Yes. Our PE tanks are made from food-grade LLDPE and SIRIM QAS certified to MS 1225 for cold water storage, and FRP Mui Tanks are made to MS 1241-1:2011. Both are registered with SPAN.
Are your water tanks registered with SPAN?
Yes. Our certified PE and FRP water tanks are registered with SPAN. Certificates are on our certificate page.
Who manufactures the water tanks and holds the SIRIM licence?
PE (LLDPE) water tanks are manufactured by Mui Fatt Industries Sdn Bhd, which holds the SIRIM product licence. FRP Mui Tank water tanks and FRP sectional panel tanks are manufactured by Y.T. Fibreglass Industries Sdn Bhd, which holds the SIRIM product licence. Both are distributed by Mui Fatt Marketing Sdn Bhd.
Is your PE tank HDPE?
No. Our PE water tanks are rotational moulded in one piece from food-grade LLDPE (linear low-density polyethylene).
How should the tank be installed?
Place it on a flat, level base that supports the whole bottom, join pipes with flexible couplings, keep it away from heat sources and always fit the cover. Lift it only when empty.
How heavy is a full tank?
Each 1,000 litres of water weighs about 1,000 kg, plus the tank itself. A full 1,500-gallon tank holds about 6,810 kg of water, so the base must be strong and level.
Does the tank come with a float valve and level indicator?
PE tanks come with a plastic float valve and level indicator. Copper float, copper ball, bronze ball and heavy-duty brass valve upgrades are available.
Can the tank be buried underground?
Only an FRP tank. Closed-top FRP Mui Tanks can be designed for underground installation, so send us your site details. PE tanks are not recommended for underground installation.
Gallons or litres?
All gallons on our pages are imperial (UK) gallons. 1 cubic metre = 1,000 litres = 220 imperial gallons.
What warranty do the water tanks have?
PE tanks and FRP Mui Tanks carry an 8-year warranty for outdoor installation and a 10-year warranty for indoor installation, for cold water storage under the warranty conditions. Correct installation and handling are needed for warranty cover.
How often should the tank be cleaned?
Flush out sediment and clean the inside every 12 months, using clean water or a mild detergent with a soft sponge or cloth. Do not use wire brushes or abrasive chemicals.
