Irrigation Uses

Major irrigation water uses is applicable to farms, orchard, pasture, and horticultural crops. Other uses include irrigation of pastures, for frost and freeze protection, chemical applications, crop cooling, harvesting, and leaching of salts from the crop root. Some non-agricultural activities include self-supplied water to irrigate public and private properties such as golf clubs, parks, nurseries, cemeteries, turf farms, and others.

This winter season, keep your plastic water tank both clean and clear

This winter season, keep your plastic water tank both clean and clear

This winter season, keep your plastic water tank both clean and clear

Winter has arrived. This is supposedly the best season but not so friendly for the above-ground water storage tanks. Cold climate and water never make a good combination. In areas with extremely cold climatic conditions, freezing of water tanks is a common problem. To know more about how to prevent your water tanks from freezing in winter, read the blog mentioned below: How To Keep Water Storage Tanks From Freezing In Winter?

Water is the most important ingredient in life. A single day without water is impossible as we simply cannot survive without the same. Water gets a regular supply from the plastic water storage tanks throughout the year. Therefore, regular water tank maintenance is mandatory. Apart from regular cleaning and inspecting a tank, it is also important to keep it clear. In winter, the most common problem is the freezing of water tanks. This happens in mostly hilly areas. But there is a solution to this as well.

In case of smaller tanks and buckets, we experimented something amazing and found its result all the more amazing. Plastic bottles with salt water in it helped keep the water tanks from freezing completely over. The tanks and buckets with bottles froze lesser in comparison with those without any bottles. Also, the plastic tanks froze less in comparison to steel tanks. And the saltwater bottles were still unfrozen. After having tried and tested this multiple times, it can be concluded that it works best for small sized tanks and buckets. However, you can try the same application with large tanks as well and see if the result is the same as smaller ones. You might have to put some more and bigger sized bottles.

This application will work best for feeding birds and animals as well. During the winter season, it is a common problem faced by many of us. Put one or two of these saltwater bottles in the buckets and see the water won’t freeze. Do not deprive these birds and animals of drinking water in winters. After all, they need to quench their thirst in the winter season too. In fact, it is recommended to drink more water during the winter season as we feel less thirsty and end up drinking less water. Keeping yourself hydrated is equally important in the winter season as well. Animals and birds are definitely not an exception here as they are also living beings. Enjoy the Winters and Drink Water!

Why are Plastic Water Storage Tanks usually cylindrical in shape?

Why are Plastic Water Storage Tanks usually cylindrical in shape?

Have you ever wondered why are water tanks usually cylindrical in shape and not rectangular or square? Well, this is the actual and best shape of a water tank as it has the most uniform stress distribution. Since water pressure acts in all directions, therefore, around wall shape will see even distribution of pressure. Any other shape such as a square or a rectangle will see concentrations of load due to pressure acting on either side of the corner pushing the two sides apart. For example, a balloon when inflated takes a naturally round shape. If required in any other shape, it has to be squeezed into that shape. This will cause a stress in the walls of the balloon to be unequally distributed.

However, there are tanks available with square or rectangular surfaces but round tanks are advantageous in comparison. Let us see how.

Economical structure

A cylindrical water tank is more economical to build than others because it requires less building material. The main reason behind the same is that it has the least possible ratio of circumference to the area than a box-shaped tank. You can save cost here.

Constant Heat Level

Since round structures minimize the surface area through which heat radiates, therefore the water temperature remains more constant than other structures such as square or a rectangle. Therefore, it remains less affected by changing temperatures outside keeping the water cooler during summers and warmer during winters.

Strong and Durable

According to Monolithic, a round structure is the strongest geometrical structure than the square ones. Therefore, a cylindrical water tank will withstand all outward force such as strong wind or heavy rain in a better way than the square or a rectangle tank. This way that tank will last longer as well.

Easy cleaning

Cylindrical tanks are comparatively easier to clean than the ones with corners. Therefore, water remains more hygienic in round water tanks than the others.

Keeping in mind the above-mentioned advantages, most water tank manufacturers design their tanks cylindrically. The safety of water remains intact in such tanks making it the most popular one and always in demand by a large number of consumers.

So always buy Cylindrical water tanks from Penguin Tank to get an uninterrupted supply of fresh and clean water. Say Yes to plastic and eco-friendly water storage tanks.

Uniform Wall Thickness

Since the centrifugal force applied to the molten plastic remains consistent throughout the rotomolding process, therefore the wall thickness of the entire product remains equal and consistent with no thin areas. This makes the tank stronger and therefore prevents bursting in the future.

Inserts

This process easily accepts metal inserts at the time of production. It is comparatively economical than any other processes. Also, assembling techniques can be easily altered in the rotomolding process which is highly durable in all dimensions.

Faster Production

Rotational molding process takes a shorter time to finish the manufacturing process of any product. It could take around three to four months which is comparatively faster than the other plastic molding processes.

Quality Surface Finish: This process offers the best quality surface finishing by taking the exact shape of the mold and the texture without any seam. Therefore it enables a high-quality gloss finish on the tank surface along with a smooth, artistic and oriental finish.

Perfect Color sectioning

Colour sectioning is much easier with the rotomolding process. Penguin water storage tanks are the best example of the same. They offer a wide variety of color options that are beyond one’s imagination. Check out the options today to believe your own eyes.

Water is equal to life. Without water, we will die in just a few days. Plants require water to grow. Animals need water to survive. Water supply is finite. According to a study, ninety-seven percent of water on Earth is salt water that is not suitable for drinking. Remaining three percent is fresh water out of which only one percent is drinkable water. The other two percent is locked in ice caps and glaciers. Do not pollute water as it is only water that we will have in the future.

By reducing the amount of water that we waste every day, we can minimize the effects of water shortages and life taking effects of drought in the future. The saved water will return to Earth through the water cycle but not necessarily to the same place or in ith same quantity and quality.

Saving water is directly proportional to saving money. By utilizing some of the basic water conservation techniques, you can save a huge amount of water and save on your water bills. Good Deal. Isn’t it?

It not only saves money but also saves energy. In order to pump the water into the plastic water storage tanks energy is required. Therefore, a lot of energy gets wasted in moving water from one place to another. Save water, save energy.

Even little effort from every individual will matter a lot in saving and conserving water. These efforts will definitely not go waste. Start saving water as much as you can on a daily basis and see the difference.
