Storage Tanks & Distribution

Between your pump and your faucet sits storage and a maze of pipes, and that is what this section is about. Storage Tanks & Distribution covers overhead, underground, and pressurised tanks: how to choose the right type and size, how to keep them clean and algae-free, and how to stop leaks, overflows, and that stale-water taste. We walk through household plumbing distribution, pipe materials, layout, common leak points, and how water actually gets shared across bathrooms, kitchen, and garden. You will learn practical routines for cleaning and disinfecting a storage tank safely, sizing storage for power cuts or low-supply days, and diagnosing the pressure and flow issues that trace back to the tank rather than the pump. If you want water that is not just available but clean and consistent at every outlet, start here.
