IVAR.FLAT-5000 flat underground rainwater tank, 5000 l, low-profile – SALE
Code: S065Product detailed description
The IVAR.FLAT-5000 (code S065) is a low-profile tank with a capacity of 5000 litres for underground installation. It retains rainwater or serves as a store of non-potable service water for the building, which is then reused. It is not intended for drinking water.
Design
- self-supporting polyethylene monobloc with a robust ribbed structure, black as standard
- length 2930 mm, width 2300 mm, height 1560–2060 mm depending on the extension setting
- weight 248 kg – much lighter than concrete tanks, which makes installation easier
- temperature range from −50 °C to +60 °C
- inlet and outlet for 110 mm pipe
- extension with lockable cover included, can be shortened along the marked cutting lines
Installation and maintenance
The tank is carefully lowered onto a compacted bed or concrete slab and surrounded with 4–8 or 8–16 mm gravel. The backfill is compacted by hand in layers of about 30 cm while the tank is gradually filled with water to one third and then to two thirds of its height. The soil cover above the tank should generally not exceed 100 cm and the surface above it is suitable only for occasional foot traffic. With a high groundwater table or in clay soil, the installation method must be agreed with a designer. Filters and tightness should be checked about once a year, and settled sludge removed roughly every 5 years.
