Why you should waterproof a concrete fire tank

One of the most important issues facing builders when constructing underground concrete water tanks is waterproofing.

Making sure there are no water leaks from the tank or water seepage from the surrounding soil is one of the biggest concerns for those building a concrete tank, because it has to resist the negative pressures that develop when the tank is emptied or filled, and combat the thrusts that come from the 'rising water table and the surrounding soil.

Fire protection systems, also known as active fire protection systems, consist of a set of components, including interior waterproofing with EDDM waterproof membranes Hidrostan.

By providing 'reserve water, fire reservoirs provide peace of mind and disaster protection, and in areas of the country where water use is restricted in drought conditions, water reserves can be used for lawn irrigation. A green lawn limits the risk of fire.

Providing durable waterproofing for a concrete fire pit is one of the most complex challenges in construction.

The use of Hidrostan® EPDM membranes is a highly effective and reliable solution to solve these critical issues. Due to their high flexibility and strength.

Vedi il nostro tutorial per la posa delle membrane impermeabili Hidrostan® in EPDM sono la soluzione ideale per il recupero di vecchi vasconi in cemento, vetro resina, acciaio, che presentano perdite o crepe di difficile soluzione ed è possibile rivestirli con teli presaldati, preformati o presagomati o saldati in loco con soluzioni a freddo. Il rivestimento con le membrane Hidrostan® in EPDM consente di prevedere gli attacchi per i tubi di scarico o di riempimento. Le loro caratteristiche chimico fisiche garantiscono una perfetta tenuta stagna e la disponibilità di gli spessori differenti, 0,70 – 1,00 -1,20 – 1,50 – 2,00 mm, lasciano un’ampia libertà di scelta progettuale. Le membrane Hidrostan® in EPDM sono certificate sia per acque reflue sia per acqua potabile.
