Hi just was wondering if any one could tell me what it cost approximately for a concrete water tank around the 100000 ltr and the enviro treatment tank as well,been quoted 6500.00 for supply only of the envirotank,still waiting on prices for the water tank.thanks
We paid around $11000 for a 153000L colourbond tank (Wilderness Green) incl. pump. Site works extra. Piccies in my blog. We may get another one later as we will be relying soley on rain as our source of water.
We haven't chosen a septic system yet. We have to have an alternative treatment unit and are looking at either Ecomax or Biolytix. They seem to range between $8000 - $11000 or so, but some need more services, use more power, etc so we have more research to do on that one.
Our Pioneer tank is 92783L and cost $8577 installed. And being colourbond it looks excellent and the guy put it up in a couple of hours.
Copy cat, Pete. We got the same tank, same size.....but ours is gal, not colourbond, so was abit cheaper.
We went for a plain old absorption trench. Other types have maintenance & on going service costs, plus hate all that chlorine in them, not great for the environment!. Also an absorption trench system will still work in a blackout (we get a few out our way).
From what I know about water tanks (I've been working with a client on them for a few years now) is this - The concrete can last a lifetime if they don't crack for some…
