WATER TANKS FOR Gembrook

Water Tanks Gembrook

Gembrook Water Tanks

For over 30 years now, Pioneer Water Tanks have been building and designing water tanks Gembrook can rely on.

The backing and history of Australia's number one big tank company, means that customers in Gembrook can be satisfied with their water storage solutions.

Although much of the rest of the country hold the belief that Victoria is a lush land of ample rains, people in Victoria know better, and are mindful of their water storage needs.

Gembrook is a popular destination for the residents of Melbourne as it is less than 1.5 hours drive from the city centre,  located within the Shire of Cardinia.

Water Tanks to Suit Every Need

Water Tank Colours

Every Pioneer Water Tank built in Australia is made from Australian made and sourced BlueScope Steel, and manufactured in the Australian Pioneer Water Tanks facility. Pioneer Water Tanks are offered in either a basic Zincalume ® finish, or in the full range of Colorbond ® colours seen below.

Water Tank Sizes

With rural and residential tanks between 12kl and 500kl, alongside industrial and commercial tanks up to a whopping 3 million or more litres, Pioneer Water Tanks offers a wide range of water tank sizes.

No matter what project you are about to embark on, Pioneer Water Tanks will have a water tank that's right of you in size and in quality.

An Ongoing Battle with the Elements

The Gembrook climate

Rainwater run-off and flooding

While many people across our dry country relish the sight of rain, evolving weather conditions, and modern infrastructure have led to increasing cases of storm water run off and flash flooding.

If 100mm of rain fell on Gembrook in just twenty-four hours, in order to prevent two million litres of rainfall from entering stormwater systems, it would call for just 100 homes armed with rainwater tanks and appropriate guttering.

Bushfire preparation

Australia is famous around the world for its long hot summers, and excluding the uninhabitable Antarctica, is the driest continent on the planet. Pairing this with the way many Australian plants behave, much of Victoria is susceptible to large scale wildfires.

It is important in any non-urban setting to ensure that you are doing the best you can to protect yourself from bushfire. You can do this by making sure that you have a bushfire action plan, along with sufficient water storage for fire fighting purposes.

Pioneer Water Tanks offers the option of a fire reserve in your tank, to ensure it can be used for both domestic water storage and fire protection.

Outperforming all comers in bushfire conditions

When the Bushfire and National Hazards CRC in conjunction with the CSIRO performed bushfire simulations on a variety of water tanks, a steel Pioneer Water Tank performed best.

All other tanks tested either melted or split, causing them to lose precious water, however the Pioneer Water Tank continued to hold water after being exposed to the full 30 minute fire front, which could prove important to fire fighting efforts.

While a water tank will still prove appropriate for watering gardens or lawns, if it has been exposed to fire, it is highly recommended that you get the tank water tested as soon as possible to ensure that it is still safe for household use.

The Pioneer Water Tanks Difference

Pioneer V-Lock ® tank wall profile

Designed for toughness and for the sole purpose of water storage, the Pioneer V-Lock ® tank wall profile is also a Pioneer Water Tanks exclusive.

The V-Lock wall profile is designed to put the steel where it is needed most, for the optimal strength and support, as well as protecting the tank liner, not just from external debris, but also against stretching or warping from the tank filling and emptying.

It's a design so good, it won an Australian Design Award for the superior strength and internal support, along with its aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Aqualiner Fresh ® antimicrobial water tank liner

Proven to prevent the growth of undesirable bacteria in your water tank, the Aqualiner Fresh ® water tank liner is the only antimicrobial water tank liner available on the market, and a Pioneer Water tanks exclusive.

The Aqualiner Fresh ® utilises Sanitized ® technology, with the antibacterial qualities of silver, within the water tank liner.

The most technically advanced, cleanest and strongest liner available on the market, this is an industry leading product, made up of five distinct layers to protect and store your water.

Gembrook Local Insight

Local knowledge

The name Gembrook came from the small gems that were found in small creeks and watercourses in the surrounding area.

The Ranges Hotel originally constructed in 1894, was expanded in 1901 to cater for day trippers and excursionists from Melbourne as well as the local population, but tragically in September 2018 the hotel was destroyed in a fire
