THE CHALLENGE
Emtec Fire Services is a UK-based company specializing in the installation and maintenance of sprinklers, dry/wet risers, and fire hydrants.
The company was tasked with installing a 2000 Liter Water Tank for a category 5 fire sprinkler system at Eden House, Blairgowrie.
TRICEL SOLUTION | 2000 Liter Water Tank
GRP Water Storage Tank Solution
Upon inspection, we found that a 2000 Liter Water Tank with an electrical housing unit was not feasible.
Our assessor immediately raised space concerns with Emtec regarding a combined enclosure.
Additionally, installing a 2000 Liter Water Tank inside the requested space would limit future maintenance access.
Therefore, our technical team recommended an external enclosure and provided design assistance.
We proposed a specialist tank enclosure, offering a two-in-one solution for water and electrical equipment storage.
This external option allowed Emtec to secure both the CWST and the pump set safely outside.
Moreover, our GRP water storage range includes combined units for water and essential electrical components.
We utilized the available outdoor space effectively for this project.
Next, we manufactured the 2000 Liter Water Tank in a 9001 RAL colour to match external aesthetics.
The customer chose a darker colour to blend with Eden House and reduce the tank’s visual impact.
As a result, this finish minimized weathering, grime buildup, and reduced external maintenance needs.
Incorrect tank specification can cause major costs and serious property damage if tank walls fail.
Finally, trust Tricel Lanark, with over 50 years of experience manufacturing GRP water storage solutions.
Our technical team always delivers storage solutions for even the most challenging space restrictions.
THE FINAL RESULT | 2000 Liter Water Tank
This is s great example of when half panels can be a perfect solution. Our manufacturing and site crews have utilised the space available to maximise the water storage capacity. Our sales, manufacturing, and logistics departments and site crews worked together alongside the college contractors to ensure that the project was completed within the time frame required. We completed the project in July 2021.
