Schutz water tanks are designed for easy, comfortable and practical handling thanks to the available models of circular water tanks and square water tanks. They are designed to be placed in outdoor water tanks, both for the storage of drinking water and for the preservation of macerated foods such as olives.

We have the range of Aquatonne water tanks from Schutz in capacities of 350, 500 and 1000L. The Aquablock range of water tanks from Schutz in capacities of 600, 750 and 1000 litres as well as specially designed Aquablock BT with a narrow width to pass through doors and with a capacity of 1000l

Characteristics of drinking water tanks

  • Rothagua tanks are made of HDPE by the blown extrusion system, without seams or welds and manufactured in a single piece, using raw material approved and authorized by the General Directorate of Health for the consumption of drinking water. This way of making them provides complete watertightness.
  • HDPE is a premium raw material, which prevents corrosion of deposits and prevents the transmission of tastes and odours. In addition, its composition (carbon and hydrogen molecules) makes it ideal from an environmental point of view, as it is fully recyclable and does not contain any toxic components.
  • The characteristics of the raw material, the manufacturing system, the special design with internal reinforcements, the thickness of the walls and a rigorous quality control to which each tank is subjected, guarantee excellent stability, product quality as well as its resistance to shocks and impacts.
  • Rothagua tanks are green in order to improve resistance to ultraviolet rays and prevent the proliferation of algae and microorganisms, although they must always be protected from the direct incidence of sunlight, like any plastic product.
  • First drinking water tank on the market certified by Applus+.

Installation of drinking water tanks

  • Rothagua tanks can be installed individually or as a group of tanks. Placed in battery, Rothagua tanks can be joined together to reach the desired volumes.
  • Rothagua ranges with one or two flanges are available, for filling or emptying the tank.
  • Rothagua tanks must be installed leaving a minimum safety distance of 10 cm on each side, thus avoiding damage and deformation due to expansion at the time of filling. Rothagua joining and emptying fittings have been designed with this in mind and incorporate pipe sections suitable for each model, thus facilitating the installer's work.
  • Range of narrow equipment for door passage.

Frequently asked questions

To ensure the quality and potability of water stored in a tank, the following safety measures should be implemented:

  • Regular cleaning: Carry out periodic cleaning of the tank to remove any accumulation of sediments, bacteria, or other contaminants. This involves completely emptying the tank and cleaning the internal surfaces with suitable disinfectants.

  • Hermetic sealing: Ensure the tank is hermetically sealed to prevent the entry of external contaminants such as insects, rodents, or chemicals.

  • Protection from sunlight: Avoid direct exposure of the tank to sunlight, as this can promote the growth of algae and bacteria. Opaque materials or protective covers can be used to block light.

  • Filtration and purification: Consider using filtration and purification systems to remove impurities, microorganisms, and unwanted chemicals. This may include the installation of filters or disinfection systems such as chlorination or ultraviolet radiation.

  • Maintenance of the surroundings: Keep the area around the tank clean and free from potential contaminants, such as chemical residues, oils, cleaning agents, or other materials that could spill into the stored water.

  • Access control: Limit access to the tank to authorised and trained personnel who handle potable water, preventing accidental or intentional contamination.

  • Regular monitoring: Conduct periodic water testing to verify its quality and potability. This can include laboratory tests to detect the presence of bacteria, chemical compounds, and other contamination indicators.

These safety measures should comply with local regulations and consider the specific characteristics of each tank. It is important to consult experts and follow official guidelines to ensure the stored water remains safe and potable.

The lifespan of potable water tanks varies depending on the material used and the maintenance performed. Steel tanks can last between 20 and 30 years, but require regular maintenance to prevent corrosion. In contrast, fibreglass and plastic tanks are much more resistant to corrosion and can have a longer lifespan, reaching 25 years or more if properly maintained.

It is important to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for maintenance and to schedule regular inspections to identify any signs of wear or deterioration. Some indicators that replacement or maintenance may be necessary include:

  • Changes in the taste or odour of the water

  • Reduction in storage capacity

  • Need for more frequent refilling

To ensure the quality of stored water, measures should be taken to keep it in a suitable environment. This includes placing the tank in a cool, shaded area, avoiding direct exposure to sunlight, which can encourage the growth of microorganisms and affect water quality. It is also important to perform regular cleaning of the tank to remove sediments and maintain a hygienic environment.

Choosing the right location for a water tank is very important. Several factors should be considered. At ParaTuReforma, we recommend the following:

  • Access and proximity: The tank should be placed in a location that is easily accessible for installation, maintenance, and repairs if needed.

  • Stable ground: The area must be stable and capable of supporting the full weight of the tank.

  • Protection from sunlight: Exposure to sunlight can encourage the growth of microorganisms inside the tank, as solar energy heats the water. It is therefore recommended to install the tank in a shaded or protected area.

  • Distance from contamination sources: Keep the tank away from potential contamination areas such as industrial zones, drains, or high-traffic areas to ensure high water quality.

  • Climatic conditions: Depending on the local climate, consider protecting the tank from extreme temperatures, frost, or strong winds that could damage it.

  • Regulatory requirements: It is essential to comply with local regulations regarding the installation of potable water tanks. Check the specific requirements in your area before selecting the location.

Using a potable water tank offers several significant benefits. The main advantages include:

  • Constant water supply: A tank ensures water is available at all times, which is particularly useful in areas with intermittent or unreliable supply.

  • Water reserve for emergencies: It serves as a strategic water reserve during outages, natural disasters, or supply interruptions, providing water for drinking, cooking, personal hygiene, and other essential needs.

  • Autonomy and self-sufficiency: Having a tank allows for reduced dependence on external sources, such as municipal systems or wells, giving greater control over water supply management.

  • Long-term cost savings: Storing and using potable water can reduce reliance on external sources, which may lower long-term costs associated with water bills and system maintenance.

  • Use in specific applications: Tanks can be used for garden irrigation, pool filling, heating or cooling systems, and other situations where high-quality water is needed.

  • Control over water quality: Storing potable water allows for better control of water quality, using filtration, disinfection, and monitoring systems to ensure potability standards are met.

  • Contribution to sustainability: Using a water tank promotes efficient water use and the conservation of water resources, contributing to environmental sustainability and protection.
