Discover Promax Water Tanks

Start with what the water is for. Garden and stock top-up: under 5,000L. Household rain supply: 25,000L or more is the usual starting point. Rural supply and fire reserve: 25,000L to 30,000L, often several tanks linked together. A useful rule of thumb for rain harvesting: every 1mm of rain on 1 square metre of roof collects 1 litre of water, so a 150 square metre roof in 1,000mm-a-year rainfall can harvest around 150,000 litres annually.

ENDURO is our strongest tank: corrugated walls, up to seven colours, sizes from 450L to 30,000L, and the only range that can be partially buried. XPRESS delivers the same Promax quality with smooth walls and the sharpest pricing, in two colours from 2,500L to 30,000L. Slimline tanks are flat-backed for tight spaces - 1,000L to 5,000L, with optional pump packages. If you are unsure, the ENDURO is the safe pick for most homes and farms.

Yes. Promax tanks are made from premium UV-stabilised polyethylene that we blend in-house, compliant with AS/NZS 4766 and suitable for storing potable water. Poly will not rust, crack or leach like some older tank materials, and the sealed one-piece construction keeps light and contaminants out of your stored water.

Decades. Our UV-stabilised polyethylene is engineered for New Zealand's harsh sun, and the one-piece construction means there are no joins or seams to fail. Tanks 10,000L and above carry a 20-year warranty; tanks under 10,000L carry 5 years. For real-world proof, the 28 ENDURO tanks at Waiau went through the magnitude 7.8 earthquake without a single failure.

Only the ENDURO. Its corrugated sidewall is strong enough that large ENDURO tanks (10,000L+) can be inset up to 1m and keep their full 20-year warranty - useful for downpipe fall, sloping sites, frost-protecting your pipework, or keeping the tank out of sight. Smaller ENDURO tanks can be buried up to a third of their height. XPRESS and Slimline tanks are above-ground only.

Poly tanks need a flat, level, well-compacted base that fully supports the tank floor and is slightly larger than the tank's footprint - compacted basecourse topped with sand or crusher dust is the common approach. Keep the pad clear of roots, rocks and sharp objects. Full site preparation guidelines are on each product page, and our team can talk you through your specific site.

Yes. The price shown on each tank is what you pay at checkout. Each tank is made to order, so current lead times are shown on the product page and at checkout.

Ordering direct through the website keeps the admin out and the price sharp. Anyone can order online and pay by credit card, debit card or bank transfer. Online pricing cannot be applied to merchant accounts.
