5000 Litre Shallow Dig Water Tank – GRAF Platin
Product code
From £1,664.44 Exc VAT (£1,997.33 Inc VAT)
Product Description
The 5000 Litre Shallow Dig Water Tank from GRAF holds enough rainwater to supply garden taps and toilets in a typical home. The flat Platin shape suits plots with a high water table, clay soil or buried services that make deep digging awkward.
Like all Platin tanks, the 5000 litre shallow dig water tank is wide and flat rather than tall. The tank body is just 1000 mm high, which keeps the excavation shallow, cuts digging costs and makes it a strong choice where the water table is high. GRAF designs Platin tanks to stay stable in groundwater, and the tough polyethylene body is far lighter than concrete.
