Our tanks can be used to store either primary or secondary water supplies for fire protection. Municipalities and developers often install fire protection water tanks when developments are far from municipal water supplies. The tanks are also an ideal solution for sites that don’t have sufficient water volume or pressure for fire protection needs. Fire protection tanks Case Study: Supplemental Water As Stantec developed the design for a Toronto college’s new aerospace center, they realized that the available fire protection water flow from the onsite system did not meet the city’s requirement for water supply. Three Xerxes 35,000-gallon [132,000-liter] tanks now provide the supplemental water. This installation took less than four hours from offloading to burying the tanks. The tanks can provide water for a building’s sprinkler system or give fire trucks quick, easy access to water for dry-hydrant connections. Our fire protection tanks comply with NFPA 20, 22 and 1142 standards. When used as dual-purpose water tanks that store potable water, they are available as NSF 61-listed (and labeled) tanks.
