What is the Purpose of a Water Storage Tank?
Water storage tanks are essential for ensuring a reliable and efficient water supply. They store water for various uses, ranging from domestic to commercial and industrial applications. There are two main types of water storage tanks: atmospheric and pressurised.
Atmospheric tanks: Ideal for outdoor and large-scale applications, these tanks are commonly used for irrigation, firefighting, and rainwater harvesting. They are designed to store large volumes of water at ambient pressure.
Pressurised tanks: Perfect for indoor use, these tanks maintain a consistent water pressure, making them suitable for homes, businesses, and industrial settings. They ensure a steady water flow for drinking, cooking, cleaning, and other daily needs.

GRP water tanks are reliable and durable, making them the ideal solution for storing potable water for domestic or commercial use. We manufacture and supply a wide range of water storage tanks to meet the different needs of our customers.
- SECTIONAL TANKS
Sectional tanks are ideal for storing large volumes of water, especially for large-scale residential units, commercial and industrial applications. Depending on the customer’s intended use, our sectional tanks can hold potable and non-potable water.
GRP sectional tanks are built to endure harsh weather conditions that would typically damage other traditional options, such as steel and aluminium water tanks. Our sectional water storage tanks are palletised, delivered and assembled on-site.

Sprinkler tanks are designed to form part of your fire protection system. Tricel Weston manufactures LPCB Approved Sprinkler Tanks. The LPCB Approval means that our sprinkler tanks meet the strictest safety standards, making them the best and safest water storage tank to support your fire suppression systems.
- TIF TANKS
This tank is designed for areas such as plant rooms with restricted spaces whilst maximising the water storage capacity of the tank. If you have limited floor space, this is the solution for you. Unlike the other internally or externally flanged base options, TIF tanks are buildable from the inside.
- ONE PIECE TANKS
Our GRP one piece tanks are ideal for domestic or commercial applications. Available in various sizes ranging from 45 to 16,000 litres, our one piece tanks offer an economical solution for water storage. One piece tanks are perfect for locations with limited access. Bespoke tanks can be manufactured to meet specific customer requirements, with some models designed to be horizontally split into sections for enhanced on-site mobility. We can supply tanks with the complete range of connections and ancillaries.
- COMBINED TANK AND PUMP STATION
This 2-in-1 water storage solution works as a water tank and has a reasonable space for tank ancillaries, water pumps, electrical equipment, and connections. Tricel’s CTPS is an economical water storage solution suitable for internal and external applications. It saves space and prevents you from altering your plant room to accommodate a separate water storage tank and housing for the water tank ancillaries.

Sizing cold water storage tanks
Knowing the volume of water required before looking for quotes is critical. The volume, capacity or size of the cold water storage tank will depend on the usage and demand and to accommodate for potential emergencies. These factors will assist you in sizing cold water storage tanks. The contractor or engineer will normally work this out for you, depending on what the water storage tank will be used for.
However, we have an easy-to-use calculator tool that will help you get an accurate size for your one piece tank or sectional tank. We have a wet riser and sprinkler tank calculator tool for those looking to size a sprinkler tank.
BS 6700 provides the following recommendations for households:
