Fire Fighting Water Tank Systems: Critical Reserves for Property & Life Safety Our Fire Fighting Water Tank collection provides the high-capacity, reliable storage required to feed automatic fire sprinkler systems, wet risers, and mist systems. In an emergency, a dedicated water reserve is often the difference between a contained incident and a catastrophic loss. These systems are engineered to meet stringent UK fire safety standards, including BS 9251 for residential settings and BS EN 12845 for commercial/industrial hazards. Compliance and Protection Standards Fire tanks are categorized by the level of risk they protect. Our systems are compatible with various hazard classifications: Residential & Domestic (BS 9251): Smaller, often slimline tanks designed to supply 10–30 minutes of water for life safety in homes and blocks of flats. Commercial & Industrial (BS EN 12845): Large-scale tanks providing 30–90 minutes of water for "Ordinary" or "High" hazard environments like warehouses and factories. Wet Riser Supply (BS 9990): Specialized systems designed to maintain a high-pressure supply (often requiring a minimum of 45,000 litres) for firefighting operations in tall buildings. Key System Configurations To suit different site constraints and regulatory needs, we offer several specialized tank types: One-Piece Polyethylene Tanks: High-grade, UV-stabilized plastic tanks that will not rust and require minimal maintenance compared to traditional steel tanks. Available in capacities from 500L up to 30,000L. Insulated Tanks: Essential for preventing thermal heat gain in summer and freezing in winter. Insulation ensures the system remains operational in sub-zero temperatures and limits bacterial growth in the stored water. Slimline Models: Specifically designed to fit through standard doorways or into narrow plant rooms, making them ideal for retrofitting fire protection into existing buildings.
