Underground tanks are the best solution for storing firewater in a military environment

In the conditions of shelling from the “friendliest state on the planet”, the question arises: how to ensure the preservation of water at strategic facilities, which is used to ensure the fire-fighting regime in summer and autumn, when there is a high probability of fires even in peacetime? For the accumulation and storage of firewater, we offer modular underground tanks TM MakBox – they are more protected against arrivals than above-ground structures. Their construction is made completely buried in the ground – only the metal roof with a hatch and rope ladders for maintenance of the tank is visible. But there is one but. Before digging a pit and starting to assemble and install the structure, you need to investigate the place of installation of the tank for the presence or absence of groundwater. If the depth of underground water below the bottom of the tank is up to 3.7 meters, then it is forbidden to install a structure here. storage of water in a state of war

  • piping (shut-off and regulating fittings, drain and filling branch pipes, valves, etc.).

Stages of work on the installation of an underground tank:

  1. Arrangement of a pit of the required depth and diameter.
  2. Preparation of the foundation base (striped concrete foundation).
