Tank Warranty |
| |
|
 Quality,
Versatility and Longevity describe only a few of the features of
the "Titan" Series Corrugated Galvanized Steel Shop Built
Tanks. The Titan Shop Built Tanks are backed by an exclusive 10
Year warranty! These tanks are built tough.
In
today's modern world of automated technology, Man still puts his
trust in the work of his own two hands. There might be faster and
easier ways of making water tanks, but because Accu-Tanks &
Equipment Co. considers water to be of vital importance, our
Titan Corrugated Water Storage Tanks are hand assembled with proven
methods that have provided durable quality tanks for over 100 years.

|
 |
The
manufacturer shall warrant it's potable water storage tanks
against defects in workmanship or materials that cause either
leakage for a period of ten (10) years from the original date
of installation when properly installed and maintained for use
with potable water. The warranties on equipment or accessories
furnished with the tank, are limited to the respective manufacturer's
warranties for their products.
|
|
All
obligations and liabilities under this warranty are limited
to repairing or replacing -at
manufacturer's option- the tank at it's
original installation site. Repairs or replacements are made
subject to field inspection by a factory representative and
customer compliance with the installation and maintenance guidelines.
Replacement products may be subject to normal freight, handling,
and installation charges.
|
|
Requests
for service under this warranty shall be made by contacting
the manufacturer in writing as soon as possible after the discovery
of any alleged defect.
|
|
Installation
of temporary storage facilities, if needed, during the course
of repairs or replacement, are not included and shall be the
responsibility of the user.
|
|
An
extended warranty is available on a pro ratio basis, for all
replacement tanks. The formula is as follows: a credit of ten
percent (10%) per year remaining on the original tank warranty
shall be discounted from the current tank list price. The user
may use this credit toward the purchase of any like or larger
tank.
|
|
This
warranty does not apply to any tank that has been subjected
to negligence, alteration, vandalism, civil disturbances, or
acts of god. The manufacturer does not authorize other persons
to extend any warranty with respect to its products, nor assume
any liability for unauthorized warranties.
|
|
This
warranty supersedes any warranty not dated or bearing an earlier
date.
|
|
Expressly
excluded from this warranty are defects caused by electrolytic
or bacterial conditions, misuse, abuse, or improper installation,
application, employment, or operation of the tank. Damage caused
by unauthorized repair is not covered by this warranty.
|
|
No
liability for consequential damages will be accepted. The manufacturer
will not assume responsibility for contingent liability for
alleged failure of its products.
|
Installation
|
|
Tank
site should be located on firm, compacted, or native soil.
|
|
Tank
should be carefully set on a level foundation of ¾" crushed
rock or pea gravel, 4"-6" deep with a minimum 1 foot radius
from the tank wall. When seismic design considerations
require anchoring to a concrete ring wall or slab, a layer
of ½" asphalt impregnated fiberboard, between tank bottom
and cement, is necessary.
|
|
Use
dielectric couplings on all metal piping connections to
tank to prevent possible electrolysis.
|
|
When
attaching electric controls or wires to tank, care should
be taken to prevent cables and control mounting brackets
from contacting tank. Use insulated brackets and other
non-conductive materials. Do not use metal anode probes
for level control.
|
|
Maintenance
|
|
Water
should be changed every three to six months with fresh
water. It is preferable that water be circulated as often
as possible. Use water for irrigation, cleaning, or other
uses, then replenish tank supply with fresh water.
|
|
If
your tank is equipped with an automatic fill shut-off
float valve, periodically check the adjustment of the
float arm attached to the float ball to prevent overflow.
|
|
If
the water supply contains "hard" or corrosive minerals,
tank interior may require periodic cleaning and re-coating.
Inspect tank interior and exterior coatings annually,
clean and re-coat if needed. Consult with your local factory
representative for additional recommendations if necessary.
Under normal water conditions, tank coatings should last
the life of the tank (typically 15-25 years).
