While we have seen water last for many years in this type of plastic, the suggested rotation schedule is as OFTEN AS POSSIBLE. If you happen to be one of the 90% of the people who simply forget, your water will be safer for longer with a WaterPrepared tank because of the high-quality, non-porous plastic that our tanks are made out of. WaterPrepared helps make rotating water convenient by allowing you to hook a standard garden hose up to your tank. With such convenience, we suggest using your water to rinse cars, water flowers, fill buckets, and in any other situation to ensure that your water is regularly being turned.

45″ Tall / 29″ Wide / 36″ deep. It will fit through any standard doorway.

Water freezes at 32 degrees. The tanks, however, are rated for -40 degrees Fahrenheit. If you are worried about the water freezing, we recommend leaving at least six inches room for expansion. It is not common for WaterPrepared tanks to freeze all the way through but it will happen if the conditions are cold enough for an extended period of time.

WaterPrepared tanks are sterilized prior to delivery through an extremely high-temperature molding process. Rinsing your tanks may be helpful but washing them prior to filling is not necessary. WaterPrepared uses vacuum drills in the manufacturing process to minimize plastic shavings inside your tanks. To remove any shavings that may have fell in during assembly you may use a vacuum or simply fill as normal then scoop the shavings off the top. Plastic shavings are harmless and will float on top of your water. Chlorine, chlorine tablets, and other substances approved for treating water may be used upon filling your tank to kill bacteria that may have appeared during delivery.

At WaterPrepared we recommend our Biofilm Defender. This treatment allows you to simply add the treatment when filling the tank and will keep the water good for up to 5 years.

For water storage up to 5 years add the following amounts of Biofilm Defender to your water. 55 Gallon - 1 Teaspoons 160 Gallon - 2 Tablespoons
