Access to safe drinking water is essential across municipalities, industrial facilities, construction sites, and emergency relief operations. When it comes to storing potable water, the system you choose must do more than just hold liquid—it must safeguard public health, meet strict regulatory standards, and deliver reliability in both short-term and long-term applications.
Why Potable Water Storage Matters
Understandably, potable water differs from other stored liquids in one critical way: it needs to be safe for human consumption This makes the storage system’s integrity, cleanliness, and compliance with safety regulations absolutely non-negotiable. A poorly designed tank can introduce contaminants, create opportunities for microbial growth, or fail to protect against external pollutants.
Compliance with Regulatory Standards
Ensuring safe drinking water storage requires meeting multiple layers of standards and guidelines. Regulations often come from organizations such as the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), NSF International, and state or local health departments. Compliance typically requires:
- Liner safety certifications that guarantee no leaching of harmful substances into the water.
- Design features that prevent contamination, including sealed covers and secure manways and connections.
