Hello In my house I am about to put a blue rotoplas tank buried. Like the one in the following image, it is 850lts. photo tank I have several doubts since the manufacturer and some internet videos recommend very different things. Other construction technicians have also told me about other techniques: one was cement soil (sand and portland cement cpc40), precast concrete rings like those used in a blind pit, or fill the space between the tank and the earth with H ° A ° , making a kind of battleship. I really don't know what to do since different options run through my mind. The issue is that in the well the earth is very firm but also moist. The soil contains some clay. It is not sandy. It has already made a concrete base What do you recommend based on experience?

Hi. Actually with this tank you just have to be careful to make it a good base. It is not a model to bury, you can do it without problems but tanks are used to bury. Once buried in a level and very strong base you must fill it with water and then earth mixed with cement or only the earth around it. Not being a tank designed to bury, you would be burying something about protected. Under the floor or ground level you do not need UV protection for example, however you can do it as I told you. If it is going to be in a high traffic area, you must place it with a cement frame and cover. Regards

Thank you. The issue is that where I live, I did not get the "cistern" model, I only got that tank at a good price in a fairly large corral in Neuquen.

Hi. If you have already made the concrete base and you have the idea of taking it out one day to clean it would be better not to be rushed. If you can, you should raise a wall around. That only for the case of taking out to clean. The mains water comes quite dirty although potable. You can also place a filter of the same brand and clean it every 6 months and replace it when the fiber breaks (2 years). Always keep in mind that it is a few centimeters above level to avoid the earth and place the corresponding ventilation. Regards

Hi Ricardo. The tank is for irrigation, so the issue of dirt does not heat me up. A hug

Well, if it doesn't turn you on and it's not for personal use, fill it with whatever you have on hand. I don't know what your concern was? You don't need to be an engineer to fill the outside of a tank. Of course, cover the side outlet that is 1 "1/2 well, no matter what you irrigate is the base of the tank.
Regards

Plumbers in the area have told me that when tanks are emptied they often break. It has happened in a plan of houses of the rionegrino state which had all tanks simply buried, filled with earth, and after a few months they were all broken. That's why I don't want to take the risk.

They break because there is external pressure and there is no internal pressure. That's why I told you about making a type of cabinet (apart from being able to take it out). Ask the plumbers in the area how they solved it. Also remember that tank is not a cistern. Greetings Pd: I understand anyway that you already solved it because I see the accepted solution, so it makes little sense to insist on the issue.
