An Overhead Water Tank is a water storage structure; the structure is placed height wise, often on roof tops or elevated structures as a way of having a gravity driven water supply system. This makes water flow through pipelines without requiring a constant flow of pumps and thus the system is energy-saving and can be operated effectively.
An Overhead Water Tank is a necessary infrastructure in an area where water supply is irregular or unpredictable or where there is a shortage of water supply on a daily basis. Be it the domestic water use, the process water in the industries or the fire safety in the commercial complex, the tank provides an uninterrupted flow of clean water with sufficient pressure.
Our products are tank systems that are designed and manufactured with superior quality that is characterized by strength, resistance to corrosion and durability at Newtech Steels Industries Private Limited. We provide solutions to a variety of applications like housing societies, hospitals, factories, warehouses, hotels, educational institutions, farms and government projects.
Why Overhead Water Tank is Essential in Modern Infrastructure
The necessity of the Overhead Water Tank has become very high because of the rising need in the supply of water which is stable and free of contaminants. The reasons are numerous:
Gravity-Based Water Supply
The Overhead Water Tank being raised means that the natural gravitational energy is used to distribute the water in an efficient manner. This does not require constant pumping and it also saves on electricity.
Emergency Water Storage
The Overhead Water Tank has a back-up storage of water that is used in case water becomes scarce or the water pipes fail or the pumps pose a problem.
Maintains Water Pressure
An installed properly Overhead Water Tank provides stability in orifice in taps, washrooms, machine equipment and firefighting pipes.
Suitable for All Applications
An Overhead Water Tank is installed either to provide drinking water, utility water, industrial processes or irrigation and is an efficient and consistent provider of this service.
Long Lifespan
The tanks that Newtech Steels Industries Private Limited has come up with are highly durable and resistant to corrosion and have a long service life because of the use of high quality materials such as steel, zinc-aluminium alloy and reinforced structures.
Types of Overhead Water Tanks
The choice of the correct type of Overhead Water Tank is based on what you want to do, how much it will cost and how much it will hold. The most popular types are these:
Steel Overhead Water Tank
These tanks are composed of the high-grade steel sheets with protective coatings making them powerful, highly durable and can be used in the industrial and commercial set ups.
Zinc-Aluminium Overhead Water Tank.
They are anti-corrosion tanks that are suitable in locations that face extreme weather. They provide a very good compromise in power and cost savings in the long term.
Concrete Overhead Water Tank.
These tanks are on-site reinforced concrete structures that are appropriate in large capacity needs, however, they consume time and cost in installation.
Plastic / HDPE Overhead Water Tank.
HDPE tanks are easy to install and lightweight which makes them popular in residential infrastructures but may not be applicable in industrial use where very high capacity is required.
Modular Panel Overhead Water Tank.
The tanks are modular with bolted panels and thus the tanks are easy to transport, assemble and customize. They fit very well in industries and large institutions.
All varieties of Overhead Water Tank possess their own merits and in the case of Newtech Steels Industries Private Limited, our specialists assist you to select the most suitable tank based on your requirements and environment.
