If you have any concerns or questions, please call us at: 1-866-920-TANK (1-866-920-8265) Monday through Friday, 8:00am - 5:00pm CST SECURING YOUR TANK When your tank arrives, please put at least 1” of water into the tank or otherwise secure it from being blown away by unexpected winds. Bushman takes no responsibility for tanks being damaged in this manner. ABOVE GROUND TANK POSITIONING ON A PAD 1. Prepare a level area at least one foot larger than the diameter of your tank. Installation on a level surface is critical. Install 3-4” of crushed drainage rock (3/4” stones) and tamp to make level. Alternatively, a concrete pad or pavers can be used. 2. Locate your water tank near an existing downspout or water source. If installing your tank with a BCK-0001 first flush accessory kit (recommended) keep the tank within 6’ of the water source. The BCK-0001 has precut lengths of pipe that are 6’ long. 3. The tank is moved into position. If positioning requires a crane or other equipment, this cost is at the purchaser’s expense. 4. The tank must be tied down to prevent it from being blown away. Adding an inch or two of water in the tank will help keep it secure.
