This is an important question for tiny home living. While a 2000L tank can be part of your water system, we generally do not recommend it as the sole primary water source for a full-time tiny home, especially if you will be relying on paid water deliveries. This is because water delivery trucks typically carry a minimum of 8,000 to 12,000 litres per load, and you are charged for the entire delivery. Filling a single 2,000L tank this way is therefore not cost-effective. Furthermore, the limited roof space on a tiny home restricts how much rainwater you can collect, meaning you might struggle to keep the tank replenished through rainfall alone with regular use.
However, this tank is an exceptionally versatile and highly effective solution in two specific scenarios:
In summary: For a self-sufficient primary supply, we recommend looking at our larger 10,000L tank. But for supplementing your system, managing a trickle supply, or creating an efficient greywater recycling setup, the 2000L tank is an ideal and cost-effective choice.
Yes, your 2,000L tank is manufactured from premium, UV-stabilized polyethylene that is certified to food-grade standards. This makes it entirely suitable for storing safe drinking water (potable water) when correctly set up. For optimal water quality, we recommend installing a first-flush diverter for rainwater collection and performing periodic maintenance as needed.
Installation is straightforward. Choose a location that is flat, stable, and can support the weight of a full tank (2,000L of water weighs 2,000kg). A level concrete pad or a compacted base of crusher metal (GAP 7 Stone) is ideal. Ensure the area is clear of sharp objects that could damage the base. Once positioned, you can connect your downpipe to the through a hole you need to drill into the tank and using a Rubber Tank Seal, Install an Overflow, and attach a hose to the outlet fitting or connecting it to a pump.
We also have Easy Connect diverters from your down pipe for small tanks like this, give us a call to discuss 09 390 2209
Yes, we stand behind the quality of our products. This 2,000L water tank comes with a 20 year manufacturer's warranty against defects. Please refer to our warranty policy page, download our manual just above or contact us for specific terms and duration.
Yes, you can daisy-chain multiple tanks to increase your total water storage capacity. This requires additional plumbing fittings like tank connectors. It's important to plan your layout so that the tanks are on the same level to ensure they fill evenly.
Our 2000l Plastic water tanks are very low maintenance. The main task is to occasionally check and clean the inlet and overflow to prevent blockages from leaves and debris. It is also good practice to inspect the inside of the tank every few years for any sediment buildup and clean it out if necessary.

The tank is exactly what my mother wanted and she is rapt. This is the second purchase, 1st one for myself was 5000L and this company never disappoints with the person on the end of the line knowing what is in stock and when it can be delivered.
I couldn't be happier with my choice. It perfectly meets our needs, and I'm truly impressed with the company that supplied it. They kept me updated regarding the delivery date and were punctual, arriving exactly when promised
