Pump Trickle Tanks
750, 1000 and 1300 gallon
This is a two compartment tank where the effluent is discharged to the field through gravity flow or through a sewage pump which is operated by an automatic control switch. These tanks may be used for either system by using appropriate openings on the tank.
Holding Tanks
750, 1000 and 1000 l.p.* and 1400 gallon
A Holding Tank may have one or two compartments. This tank has only one inlet and the sewage must be “pumped” by truck when the tank fills up. The raw sewage must be hauled elsewhere for disposal. The tank lid has a smaller 8" access lid for the pump-out hose.
Water Storage Tanks
1000 l.p.*, 1100 and 1500 gallon
These tanks are one-compartment tanks that are designed for water storage. The tank lid has a 4" opening for the filler pipe/vent.
*The low profile tanks are used in areas where deep burial is not suitable due to rocky terrain or high water table.
