Bushfire Resistant Tanks

The bushfire season has started and you need to be prepared for any threat that may face your home. In addition to having a bush fire survival plan, you need to consider having a Bushfire Resistant Tank that can save you the cost of installing a new system in an event of a fire.

A plastic water or septic tank(s) during a fire will melt in the heat just when you need it the most. What you need is a Bushfire Resistant Tank that is durable and fire proof and can deliver you lifesaving water when you need it. During the recent Sydney bushfires where homes had plastic wastewater treatment plants or plastic rainwater tanks, homeowners were left with a round pit of melted plastic, no water and/or evaporating sewerage. They were then faced with cleaning up the mess and the costs of installing a new system or tank, in addition to the heartache of losing their homes.

BioSeptic wastewater treatment systems use hardy concrete tanks and all treatment equipment is contained inside the tanks, preventing bushfire damage. During the recent bushfires, even if the house was devastated by fire, the BioSeptic tanks withstood the heat.

As an alternative, you may also want to consider installing a concrete rainwater tank that can be installed above or below the ground through Sydney Water Tanks. The concrete rainwater tank can be designed to have both retention and detention, providing a source of water to help fight fires. This tank can also have a storz valve fitted for the fire fighters to connect to when it is needed the most.

In rural areas or where bushfires are a threat to homes, it is worth taking into consideration the implications of the type of wastewater treatment system or rainwater tank you choose. You can potentially save yourself money and inconvenience by installing a BioSeptic wastewater treatment system, or a Sydney Water Tank on your property.

Plastic tanks melt in a bushfire, concrete tanks will not.

Save money by installing a BioSeptic AWTS or Septic Tank, or a Sydney Water Tanks Concrete Rainwater Tank today and be prepared for the bushfire season.

New Year – take a fresh approach

Kick 2013 off by helping to preserve water and treating it as a valuable resource. With rising living costs, population growth and pollution, the need to preserve water now has never been more important. Water plays an active role in making choices that will help make a difference to our environment, now and in the future.

Here are some tips on how you can save water around the house or garden:

  • In your garden, water your plants early in the morning or evening. When washing your car, use a bucket of water and park it on your lawn. Adding compost to your garden will help increase the amount of water available to your plants.
  • In your home, install water efficient taps and regularly check for leaking taps. When washing fruit and vegetables, half fill a sink to wash it rather than under running water. Make sure you don’t leave the tap running when you brush your teeth.
  • Install a rainwater tank as an additional water source for your home and garden

Being water wise is easy if you know how and what to do. The benefits of saving water include saving money and protecting our precious environment, so make water conservation your New Year’s Resolution!

What do you do around the house and garden to help save water? We’re always open to new ideas!
