The 42000 Litre Underground Water Tank from GRAF is a mid-range Carat XXL tank for high-demand sites. It suits dairy and livestock units, equestrian centres, sports grounds and commercial buildings that want to cut mains water bills or keep a large reserve on hand.
Because it sits below ground, the tank keeps water cool and dark, which limits algae, and it is safe from frost. The ribbed polyethylene Carat XXL body is far lighter than concrete, so installation is quicker and needs smaller lifting equipment.
