Who is a 125 000L water tank suitable for
125 000L rainwater tanks are typically most suitable for the domestic usage of three people within a household, or those looking to harvest additional rainwater off of a large shed or workshop. The 125 000L water tank is also a very popular size among people looking for a large tank for the farm or cattle station.
125 000L water tanks are used by rural Australian families all across the country who rely on rainwater tank as their main water source for household supply, drinking water and to help the gardens stay green and vibrant during the drier months.
Most people purchasing a a rainwater tank this size have little to no access to mains water, meaning they are relying on their water storage to contribute their entire household water supply. Due to this, it is important to make sure that you have the right size rainwater tank, but also enough roof catchment area to obtain the harvested water required to fill the tank.
To help you to determine if a 125 000L steel water tank is suitable for you, you can consult our water storage calculator (below) to determine how much rainfall you can capture from your roof, and also keep a track of how much water your household is using. For advice on what size tank is best for you, give us a phone call on 1800 999 599.

The Pioneer Water Tanks Difference
Pioneer has been behind the sale and manufacture of water tanks that Australians can rely on for more than 30 years now - including sizes such as 125,000L rainwater tanks - and they continue to strive to maintain their position at the forefront of innovation and quality in the industry.
No matter if you're after a 125,000L water tank, or a 250,000L water tank - all Pioneer Water Tanks are manufactured in Australia from Australian Zincalume® or Colorbond® Steel direct from BlueScope. Pioneer Water Tanks remains Australian owned and operated, and is owned by an Australian family business.
The Pioneer V-Lock® tank wall profile is specially designed with water storage in mind, not only providing superior strength and longevity, but also protecting your liner from the stretching and stress that can come with the filling and emptying of a regular corrugated wall panel.
The delivery of every 125,000L water tank Pioneer manufactures comes with our 20/20 Warranty, which is a 20 year conditional structural warranty as well as a 20 year conditional warranty against water leakage.
You Can Never Have Too Much Water
Water Catching and Usage Factors To Consider
Fire Reserve
This is a volume of water that is always readily available in the event of fighting fire. Commonly this can be up to 20,000 litres.
Irrigation
When looking to irrigate, factors such as water source, harvesting capacity, and usage volume will all need to be considered.
Water Source
Harvesting water from a roof, filling up from a bore or dam will impact the size of tank that will be most optimal for you.
Harvesting Factors
The size of your roof catchment area, in addition to your annual rainfall will determine how much water you can harvest.
Domestic Usage Volume
Having an idea of what domestic functions you intend to connect to your tank and how often each will be used will be advantageous.
Total Volume
It's better to have water and not need it, than to need water and not have it. It may pay to install a bigger tank to mitigate running out of water.
