Kentucky Tank's below-ground water cisterns feature the same rugged, ribbed design found in our septic tanks. Our cisterns are ideal for instances when drinking water must be hauled in or if a well just doesn't meet consumption needs. As with all of Kentucky Tank's water storage tanks, our cisterns are produced with 100% virgin resin which meets FDA specifications for potable water. Where applicable, Kentucky Tank's cisterns have been certified under ANSI/NSF Standard 61.

 
 

300 and 550 gallon spheres may remain in the ground when empty. These tanks include a molded-in elevated pump stand on the bottom of the tank. The ribbed tanks (600 gallon and larger) need to be kept 1/4 full at all times.

Manhole extensions and lid/riser combinations are available for instances where it is necessary to bring access to ground level. In addition, Kentucky Tank offers a full range of bulkhead fittings to help adapt the cistern to suit specific needs or applications. (See Cistern and Tank Accessories.)

All of Kentucky Tank's cistern tanks are manufactured by means of the rotational molding process, which produces a one-piece, seamless, watertight tank. Polyethylene is unaffected by soil chemicals so the tanks will not rust or corrode, and require no additional coatings as other tanks do. Kentucky Tank’s strict quality guidelines ensure an environmentally safe cistern tank.
