Each ZCL potable water tank is designed and manufactured to meet a customer’s specific requirements. A major benefit of ordering a ZCL potable water tank is that it can be manufactured to the requirements of NSF® Standard 61 — Drinking Water System Components listing standard. The National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) is a leading international organization that develops standards, and tests and certifies products in the areas of public health safety and environmental protection. ZCL potable water tanks are manufactured with a resin that has been approved as conforming to NSF standards for drinking water system components, demonstrating once again that ZCL is a pioneer in its industry. The process by which ZCL manufactures potable water tanks with NSF-listed materials offers a significant advantage over steel and concrete tanks. The ZCL fibreglass potable water tank is an integral structure incorporating an NSF-listed-resin interior with a polyester-resin-glass exterior. This is the most effective combination for a potable water tank. Steel and concrete storage systems typically use internal linings to meet industry standards for potable water. In order to be effective, these linings require a degree of adhesion that can be difficult to obtain in the manufacturing process and to maintain over the life of the tank. When linings are constructed of materials different from the tank materials, the durability of the end product can be compromised. In short, a ZCL fibreglass potable water tank offers many advantages over tanks that simply use a lining. Another significant advantage is that because it is lightweight, a ZCL tank can be easily installed in the remote locations that are common to potable water system installations, such as campgrounds, resorts, national parks and private homes.
