LARGEST RANGE OF UNDERGROUND TANK SIZES AVAILABLE now!

Reclaim your backyard and use it to it's maximum potential

We are so excited, we have not just 1 or 2 underground tanks for you to choose from but 5. Yep that's right. Five underground tanks starting from the small, compact 1,100 litres which is ideal for a small Storm Water Retention Tank (SWR also known as SRT) etc, up to 4,500 litres, 5,500 litres, 7,500 litres and the 10,000 litres tanks. Our unique design shows them as being a tough tank that will stand the test of time and what ever nature dishes out. Our underground water tanks have large ribs that add to the overall strength that many other tank companies lack.

Underground water tanks manufactured by Coastline Plastics are one of the very few underground tanks that have actually tested and comply with the Australian Standards. One of the extreme tests require that an empty tank be fully submerged in water and not fracture making sure that the tank can meet worst case scenarios. Our tanks are made of  high quality virgin polyethylene which also meets the Australian Standards for contact with food and water.

INSTALLATION GUIDE

This is a simplified version of the installation guide. The full detailed installation guide as written up by the independent engineer is available upon tank order.  Specific requirements, for example, for water logged soils etc are not covered here. This is not The guide - it is just a brief outline to give you an idea of what is expected.
  • Check first your local council/shire requirements.
  • A first flush diverter is strongly recommended, either directly with the tank or in  the down pipe.
  • Check existing underground services, e.g. telephone, electricity, sewer
  • Check water table of your area.
  • Excavate hole approximately 2780mm & to the required depth.  Avoid over excavation.
  • Place 100mm thick sand bedding over base, ensure level & plumb.
  • Lift tank into place
  • Backfill  in stages with dry sand & cement to cover the crown of the tank. (Concrete part height on larger tanks.)
  • Complete all plumbing & accessories
  • Ensure down pipes and diverters are properly fitted
  • Finish surface treatment as desired.

 

Though Coastline Plastics Underground Water Tanks  are certified to be load bearing of 500kg static load, it is recommended that tanks installed below driveways and garage floors etc
  • should be installed 100mm lower than height of tank.
  • The cast reinforced concrete slab should not bear on the tank
  • Cast insitu a Rocla CPO storm water cover.

Lifting: The simplest means of lifting and handling the tanks is to install a 100 x 100mm hardwood F27 grade timber section inside the tank access opening and positioned horizontally up against the flat soffit and slung from a crane. Another option is the use of slings.
