Water tank finalization..

Here you can see the final pictures from the completed watertank. We've hooked up all the necessary pipes which will need to be hooked up, because next time we are here it will be under water making access more challenging. We need to wait 7 days for the waterproofing compound to fully cure before it can be put under water, though it looks dry already.

This is where the rain will flow into the tank. The "T"connection will prevent the rain from disturbing the bottom too much which will help keep the turbidity down.



Floater for our pump. The best quality water is from 6 inch's below water line.



Our pump will suck from this pipe through the wall. This is above the waterline to prevent any leakage, we siliconed it just in case.

Finished tank with waterproofing applied on walls (twice) and floor.




Our tank inspector visiting for the first time.

Here you can see where the rain will enter on the left and floater is on the right side.
