| BENEFITS | HOW? | WHO? |
| LOWER COST: Up to 50% more cost effective than other AWWA steel tank choices. | Low Cost Materials, Simple Installations | Schools, Municipalities, Engineers, Architects, End Users |
| QUICK LEAD TIMES: Lead times can be as fast as 2-4 weeks for material fabrication. | Specialty Manufacturing facilities allow for fast turn around. Steel is previously Zinc Galvanized prior to manufacturing. | Schools, Municipalities, Engineers, Architects, End Users |
| FAST INSTALLATION TIMES: Short lead times due to lighter weight materials and ease of installation due to manufacturing designs. Less equipment needed. | Lighter weight materials. Heavy equipment like cranes or booms- not required. Massive flexible membrane liner creates water tight seal. Welded to fit interior of tank prior to arrival onsite. | Schools, Municipalities, Engineers, Architects, End Users |
| LONG WARRANTIES: Up to 30 Year Warranties are available. | Zinc Galvanized Sheets – high corrosion resistance. Flexible Membrane Liner protects steel from constant water contact. | Schools, Municipalities, Engineers, Architects, End Users |
| MORE CHOICES: More Sizes, Flexible Membrane Liners, Coatings & Roof Style Options. | You deserve to have more options for steel tanks for potable water. | Schools, Municipalities, Engineers, Architects, End Users |
