Water Storage Tanks - Delivery & Installation
Consider us your one-stop-shop for water storage tanks.
At Lakota Tank Company, we take the stress out of purchasing and installing your water storage tank.
As your trusted partner, we work with leading tank manufacturers across the globe to provide a seamless, one-stop solution for finding the perfect tank, delivering it to your location, and ensuring proper installation. Whether you’re investing in a metal tank, a poly tank, or a fiberglass tank, we’re here to guide you through the entire process.
Metal Water Tanks
Metal water tanks, such as Pioneer Water Tanks, are delivered in panels and assembled on-site to ensure a custom fit for your project location. These tanks require professional installation due to their size and complexity, including a secure roof structure and liners that need precise placement. Our expert installers ensure that your metal tank is properly assembled and meets all manufacturer specifications for optimal performance and longevity.
Poly Water Tanks
Poly (polyethylene) water tanks are pre-molded and delivered as a single unit. Their lightweight design makes them easier to transport and install, especially for smaller sizes ranging from 5,000 to 10,000 gallons. For larger poly tanks, special handling may be required. We ensure that your poly tank is placed on a stable, level foundation to avoid unnecessary strain that could impact its lifespan.
Fiberglass Water Tanks
Fiberglass tanks are known for their durability and corrosion resistance, but their installation can be complex, especially for larger tanks or above-ground models. Our team coordinates every step, from delivery to placement, ensuring that your fiberglass tank is securely installed and fully functional for your specific application.
We handle delivery and installation, so you don’t have to.
An Overview of the Installation Process
It all starts with a level foundation.
A properly prepared foundation is critical to the performance and lifespan of your water storage tank. Whether your tank sits on sand, gravel, or a concrete pad, a stable, level foundation helps to:
Prevent uneven pressure on the tank walls and base.
Avoid structural damage over time.
Ensure compliance with manufacturer warranty requirements.
We’ll help you determine the best foundation type for your tank, taking into account factors like soil conditions, tank size, and intended use. An uneven foundation can lead to serious issues, including voiding your manufacturer’s warranty—so we make sure to get it right the first time.
Precise liner installation ensures maximum performance and durability.
The final step in setting up your metal water tank is the meticulous fitting of the tank liner. This crucial process involves ensuring the liner is snugly and evenly placed, eliminating the risk of uneven wear or potential leaks. Proper liner installation not only maximizes the tank's storage efficiency but also plays a vital role in preserving the longevity of the tank.
At Lakota Tank Company, our professional installation team handles every detail with care and precision, ensuring your tank is fully prepared to deliver years of dependable water storage. From the liner's fit to its secure attachment, we leave nothing to chance, providing you with peace of mind and exceptional performance.
On-site assembly takes about a day, depending on the size of the water storage tank.
After ensuring the foundation is properly prepared and level, the next step in the installation process for metal water tanks is the precise assembly of the tank panels and components. Each panel is carefully bolted together to create the tank’s robust structure, and special attention is given to sealing the joints to ensure watertight performance.
Once the tank walls are erected, the secure roof structure is installed to provide stability and protection against environmental factors.
