What is a Break Tank?
Break tanks are used for storing water for boosted water systems as a main supply to the property if there’s inadequate pressure from the main supply, ensuring no cross contamination can enter the main water supply. When used in tall structures, the break tanks can be used as intermediate tanks to split the system into different zones.
