Keeps Water Cleaner – Thanks to UV-resistant, waterproof 420D Oxford fabric
420D Oxford fabric is silver coated to block sunlight and resist UV, while remaining waterproof and tear-resistant. The thicker surface reduces light penetration and limits conditions that encourage algae growth.
Blocking sunlight and keeping the tank shaded reduces algae formation, leaving stored rainwater clearer and reducing cleaning frequency.
Quick Access for Monitoring – With side zip and top opening
A zip on one side allows inspection of water level without removing the full cover, while a top opening with Velcro enables refilling through the tank mouth. The Velcro secures the opening when not in use.
Check levels and add water without removing the whole cover, saving time and preventing unnecessary exposure of the tank to weather.
Built to Last Outdoors – With thicker, wear-resistant silver coating
The silver-coated surface increases fabric thickness, improving resistance to wear, tears and fading under prolonged sun exposure. Construction aims for durability in outdoor conditions.
Durable materials extend the life of stored tanks by shielding them from sun and weather, and the cover folds away into the supplied storage bag for reuse.
