Backup Municipal Water Tank Installations

We're proud of our 400+ water tank installations!

How it works

See how our water storage system is set up.

1

Rule of thumb

The larger the distance is
between the pump and the
house, the larger the pipe
must be to ensure that there is
enough pressure when the
water reaches the house

2

Ensure base is sound,
level, smooth and
wider than diameter
of the tank

3a

Install gate valve as
close to tank as possible

3b

Install gate valve as
close to tank as possible

3c

Install gate valve as
close to tank as possible

5

Float valve kit connected
to the inside of the tank
inlet to control the fill
height.

7

Standard outlet on
JoJo water tanks is
40mm. Relevant
reducers needed
to fit pipes onto
tank/pump.

6

Pressure controller senses
drop in pressure and starts
pump operation - pumping
water from tank to house.

8

Install non-return
valve to ensure no
back pressure to
municipal supply.

Why a JoJo tank

We’re making it easy to utilise a municipal water backup tank system on your property. Here are (mouse over) the benefits of our tanks.

UV-stabilised outer
layer withstands the
harsh African climate

Black inner layer prevents
algae growth

Lids are secured
with spring-loaded
e-clips as an
additional safety
measure in the
event that the
tank overflows

BPA-free, food-grade
layer prevents leaching of
harmful chemicals and
protects the quality of
the water stored

No vertical joints
or weak points
in the layers
for added
strength

Our colour pigments
have the best weather
-and light fastness
properties for
extended outdoor
use without fading

Tanks can be
manufactured in a range
of colours to suit various
preferences and unique
aesthetic requirements

Greater thickness
at the bottom of the
tank provides the
required strength
to withstand the
pressure from the
liquid stored

Closely spaced ribs at
the bottom of the tank
provides added strength

Tanks are supplied
with high-quality,
practical fittings
designed for use
with our accessory
range, to extend
the versatility and
allow for easy DIY
installations

Iconic contemporary
design with unique
sharp lines and
finishes
