Why is a TANKLESS™ system so ideal for schools?
OUT OF SIGHT
As the installation is completely underground, you are not confronted with the sometimes aesthetically unsightly image of huge above ground tanks.
OUT OF MIND
There is no danger with TANKLESS™ as there can be with some above ground tank designs. Attached to outside building structures, these run the risk of coming free in some weather conditions or unpredictable situations. Remember: 1 litre of water equals approximately 1 kilo in weight.
NO RISK
The TANKLESS™ installation has been independently tested to withstand trafficable weight of up to 3,000 kilos, more than the weight of an average car.
DESIGN
Where playground or “time out” space for students is scarce, the area above a TANKLESS™ installation can be designed in varying ways to suit the outdoor needs of the children. Some alternatives that can be laid over the underground installation and benefit from a non-controlled water supply, include:
SCHOOLS’ GARDEN AWARDS
Take advantage of the TANKLESS™ underground rainwater storage when participating in the Victorian Government Schools’ Garden Awards. Now celebrating its 30th anniversary, more than 3 million students have been involved since its inception. Click Here
Green Vouchers for Schools Programme
The Australian Government will provide every Australian Primary and Secondary school up to $50,000 to install solar hot water systems and rainwater tanks to improve energy and water efficiency. A rainwater tank above 10,000 litres, along with their associated infrastructure and fittings can be purchased with the grant. For tanks the installation costs can include a pump and reticulation to toilets, gardens and ovals etc. The water is not to be used for drinking purposes. More information: Click Here
STUDENT PARENT & TEACHERS DISCOUNT
Parents and teachers of students attending a school that has installed a TANKLESS™ system will receive a saving on the price of their own installation.

Some alternatives that can be laid over the underground installation and benefit from a non-controlled water supply, include:
| • | Green, lush, “knee friendly” lawn |
| • | A private courtyard fernery with seating and water features (reticulated back into TANKLESS™ course) • With added topsoil and restriction free water, a vegetable garden bed would flourish, and at the same time provide students an educational benefit. |
