Rainwater Harvesting Storage Tank for Basement
FAQ: What tank would be best for storing rainwater overflow?
Question: I am looking to store rainwater in a basement where the access is too small to fit larger tanks. We would need several tanks. Is a bladder tank the best option, or is there something else I don't know about?
The system is in California where rain only comes in the winter, so the tanks would collapse for a period of months in the summer. What are the dimensions and costs for a 2000 gallon pillow tank? What is the design life?
Answer: Thank you for contacting us! The Flexible Rainwater Tank would be the perfect option for this type of storage. These tanks are designed specifically for tight spaces and can lie flat or fold when empty to fit through tight door spaces.

Contact Times/Design Life
When dealing with these tanks, fabric are typically given a rated contact time. This contact time is described as the amount of time in which tanks can store a liquid before the fabric on the tank may start to change. This is not designed to act as a lifespan for the tank, but rather a point in time in which the fabric on the tank may start to change.
Typical contact times for fabrics will be either up to 1 year, 3-5 years, or up to 7 years. If there is a specific amount of time that you are needing to use this tank or store a liquid, please let us know.
