Hello Khor Geh, (do I get the name correct, sorry if I don't). My house is on a small hill. Main ws pressure is often insufficient to reach roof top tank. I am planning to install ground storage tank and a pump to pump it up to the roof top tanks, with a bye-pass, so that direct supply to the roof top and kitchen can be maintained when pressure is good. Please advice the type of ss tank (grd storage) and the pump. Can I use horizontal tank on a base frame sitting on a plinth?
I think it's workable. And yes, you can sit the base frame on a plinth but make sure it's able to support the distributed loading. You may refer link here: mini.buma.my/ewarehouse/atkc-sswt for the tank and water pump. I would suggest a 1 hp pump for greater efficiency.
@@ATKCeWarehouse I am looking for 150-200 gal ss (horizontal if possible due to very low press intermittent supply) with stand, a pump to pump up to double storey roof top tanks your advise please. Installation is outdoor with 2Mx2M available base area unconfined on the ground
Hi.. can I ask.. what if it is not a pressurized tank that is located at the 3rd floor? Will the gravity be enough to supply my T&B's at the 2nd flr and ground floor and shower heads will function well? Thanks in advance for your response.
Yes, relying on the force of gravity. Which is quite a common configuration in most house or commercial premise (in Malaysia). Shower heads will function, but if it's "Rain shower" or big shower heads, definitely you need a booster water pump.
For SS Tank, you need to have a good air ventilation area, thus open or external space to prevent chlorine build up. Below rooftop, if it is not airy, it will cause issues.
Thank you for reassuring what I've already had in mind. Piping choice, steel, hdp, pvc etc another story of course. Yes, with pump its an additional cost per liter of water...
Hi, firstly, thank you so much for your informative videos. I stay in single storey, the kitchen water pressure is strong, but master toilet water pressure is weak. My plumber says it's due to small pipe diameter connecting from my water tank. He suggests to make a bypass, so tat my master tank gets direct water from the main pipe. When there is water supply cut, the valve will automatically switch to tank supply. This sounds very good to me. My only concern is, will the water in the water tank become stale or dangerous if unused for a long time?
You've got a point here. Long stored water still can be used for general cleaning, but definitely not for kitchen application. How about installing a water pump to increase the water pressure?
Good information. Taking into consideration the fluid dynamics, if I install a 250L tank on the ground and a pump connected to the main water line, will it be sufficient for the tank to push upward to my main water tank on the ceiling? How will that work in terms of the ceiling tank to trigger the water intake from below? Sorry if this may sound silly but I have this thinking that the tank below will intervene with the original pressure from the main pipe for the ceiling tank intake.
Hi sir, if I want to install a pump without water tank is it Ok? Example, water meter-water filter-pump, if my area sometime water cut, is it will affect my pump burn?
Most of the time, it's prohibited. By doing so, some of your neighbors will have low water pressure supply. If the incoming has no water, definitely will exhaust your pump.
There are some said that water is not recommended to be stored inside a water tank and use it in our kitchen daily usage...Is it true?If Hdpe tank yes I have heard of it...But for stainless steel tank?
This is quite a common settings/configuration for our houses here in Malaysia. Would definitely great to have "fresh" water supply to our kitchen, and during low pressure/maintenance period.

Hi would like to ask an opinion. I have only one stainless steel water tank placed on roof not in confined space. The tank supplies to 2 bathrooms upstairs. For downstairs kitchen and bathrooms is direct from filter after the meter. I have a water pump installed after the tank to fix the slow pressure to the bathrooms and the pressure is fast but, when i open one faucet in bathroom, the water flow is not steady as it pulses. If i open the tap fully than only its fast, but i cant open fully as the pressure is too fast. lets say the spray gun faucet if i open fully it also pulses, that sometimes can hear banging noise from the pipes on ceiling. if the water flow is steady than there is no noise. this problem has been experienced for years that my plumber tried fixing but still face the problem. I thought it was maybe water hammer but i have this water pulsing which is not smooth unless i open 2 faucet at same time than only the water flow steady. Any advice what it could be
First, may I know what is the brand & model of the water pump? 2nd, what is the type and size of the piping supply before and after the water pump? (The size should be printed on the pipes)
Thank you for sharing. Sir more video on how to install water tank for one storey house. Water supply comes from Ph. water company provider. Water pressure is okay in the evening and good enough to fill the elevated water tank without using motor pump.
The sturdiness or loading in term of steel structure design will be under manufacturer's warranty. Each of the water tank is design to support its loading in example 1000L for 1000kg. With this, you just have to make sure that your base slab able to support this.
Kudos for the Video clip! Forgive me for chiming in, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you researched - Proutklarton Protecting Aqua Plan (do a google search)? It is a great one of a kind product for getting prepared for a mega drought minus the normal expense. Ive heard some decent things about it and my cousin at last got great results with it.
Very good explanation. I am renovating my double storey house and am thinking about the placement of tank, filter and pump. My architect suggested ONE tank only and place on the ground floor. Sounds like your last diagram. However, I am not sure what you mean by do a “by-pass” from pump to existing piping. Can you elaborate with a diagram. Also, for hot water system, is it better to have centralised tank power by electric/solar or individual electric unit.
The biggest challenge for installing a water tank at the ground level, is you need to install a water pump to continue supplying incoming water into the whole house. And, if there's no electricity, the water pump will not operate. As contingency place, I would suggest doing a "bypass" line from the water meter (source) directly to the "house", leveraging on the existing pressure from water source. If you need further info, drop me an email at support@ewarehouse.my attention to "Ang Kok Gei".
Personally, I have a solar heater for hot water supply to all my bathrooms and kitchen. Absolutely, love it! High initial cost, but it's cheaper in long run. However, the problem that I have faced so far is 1. The leaking of the hot water tank (attached with the solar panel), which was luckily under product warrant. 2. During raining seasons, I need to constantly switch on the heater. 3. The hot water temperature/ supply may varies, so you need to constantly adjust the mixer.
Hi,what are the pro and cons of having stainless steel water tank compared to usual pe/frp? Is there anyway we can clean the piping system?(sort of flushing the system) Thank you very much
SSWT is more durable and is a safer and cleaner storage as compare to PE/frp. It is stronger and will not bulge. With its design, it's easier to clean and maintain.
Thanks alot..I did watched all your video's..but never mentioned bout flushing the piping.probably I can rephrase the question. Do I need to clean/flush the piping?
You may use PE tank as well. Many are not aware of this, but most of the PE Tank manufacturers provide 10 years warranty on their products too. T&C Apply also.
Hi sir , first of all , thank you so much for your awsome videos , i've learn many things from it . But i have some questions , my house have a PE water tank above my house in front of my window (Are they call Air Well , IDK😆). I wanted to do some decorating in that space but its too compact and have no space at all because of the PE tank and the water pump up there . So for now i'm looking foward to replace it to a SS tank b'coz it takes less space . So my question for now is , is the tank need to be at the middle of the space just like where they place the PE tank ? Or i can just fit my SS tank at the corner of the space to free up some space ? Is there any regulation that i need to follow ?
First, you need to identify the current capacity of the PE tank, by referring to the emboss printing on the body. Then, you can choose similar or bigger size of SSWT and model too. Subjected to the structure design, but it's not much issue to move the water tank around within the loading area.

@@oineed Assuming that the water pump is installed between the water source and the water tank, this will definite raise up the water pressure into the float valve. Which, will cause the float valve to vibrate furiously. And, in long term, it will fail.
It depends,, if you water tank is located at the roof level, even without using a water pump, water will be in sufficient pressure mode to flow to all your bathrooms. However, if it is located at the ground level, you need a water pump to pressurize the water for supply.
@@ATKCeWarehouse What if we put good ventilation (turbine ventilator) to reduce heat and improve air flow at the roof where the stainless steel water tank is placed. Will it help to reduce corrosion?
Hello, I have a quick question, let's say I do have a water tank on the roof of my house and I would like to add a tankless water heater, how do I go about that? The pump is pulling water from the reservoir up to the tank correct, now wheres does the hot water heater gets connected????
thank you for the explaination, answering most of my question. I have few other question, is it safe to connect to kitchen water supply from tank itself rather than direct to main water supply ? Second question, how to avoid the problem of no water supply if the water pump have no electric supply, is there any trick ?
I believe that direct water supply for the kitchen is the best, to ensure the quality of water (avoid any external contaminations) for our consumption. However, I have also seen the configuration, where the water was being stored in a storage tank before being pump into the house.
For the 2nd answer, you need to create a bypass channel directly from the water source (water meter) to the main pipe lines into your house. This will involve installing ball valves. For example, if you electric cut off, you need to close the valve into your water pump, and open the valve for the bypass channel. This will allow water to flow from the main into your house, just like any "original" setting.
First,I want to say Thank You for all of your awesome videos and tutorials. Question (scenario 3) : (1) when you mentioned about water pump, are you referring to "water pressure booster pump"? (2) what brand n model of pump do u recommend in your store? (3) to initiate the pump, we need some water flow to startup the pump, right? In doing so, what height of the ss tank should I buy? higher tank (tank's topmost) is better for initiating the pump, am i correct? (4) which ss tank do u recommend me (from your company)? Thank you ya sir ! pls do more awesome videos!
1) Yes, since it's installed after the water storage tank. 2) Personally, I would suggest Grundfos as I have been using 1 for almost 8 years. 3) The trigger point is after the pump (outflow). 4) I would definitely recommend my brand ATKC, since it's the same as King Kong Water Tank and produced & warranted by the same manufacturer. You easily save 5% from your costing. Apologize for the late reply. Please visit mini.buma.my/ewarehouse/atkc-sswt for more information.
Which is better, polyethylene water tank or steel type?
Stainless steel will be a better option, however, you may need to go thru the disadvantages before purchasing. Do you know that PE water has 10 years warranty as well? But many didn't know that...

I believe that direct water supply for the kitchen is the best, to ensure the quality of water (avoid any external contaminations) for our consumption. However, I have also seen the configuration, where the water was being stored in a storage tank before being pump into the house.
For the 2nd answer, you need to create a bypass channel directly from the water source (water meter) to the main pipe lines into your house. This will involve installing ball valves. For example, if you electric cut off, you need to close the valve into your water pump, and open the valve for the bypass channel. This will allow water to flow from the main into your house, just like any "original" setting.
@@ATKCeWarehouse okay. Bright idea. Thanks a lot for replying.
@@sayidahmadaimansayedmasri9428 Thanks again.
First,I want to say Thank You for all of your awesome videos and tutorials.
Question (scenario 3) :
(1) when you mentioned about water pump, are you referring to "water pressure booster pump"?
(2) what brand n model of pump do u recommend in your store?
(3) to initiate the pump, we need some water flow to startup the pump, right? In doing so, what height of the ss tank should I buy? higher tank (tank's topmost) is better for initiating the pump, am i correct?
(4) which ss tank do u recommend me (from your company)?
Thank you ya sir ! pls do more awesome videos!
1) Yes, since it's installed after the water storage tank.
2) Personally, I would suggest Grundfos as I have been using 1 for almost 8 years.
3) The trigger point is after the pump (outflow).
4) I would definitely recommend my brand ATKC, since it's the same as King Kong Water Tank and produced & warranted by the same manufacturer. You easily save 5% from your costing.
Apologize for the late reply.
