Blow Molding Water Tank 2000 Liter Polyethylene Horizontal 194×135×138 cm | Marjan

Choosing the Right Water Tank for Saudi Homes

With temperatures regularly exceeding 45°C in Riyadh and Jeddah, selecting a water reservoir tank for home use requires materials that resist UV degradation and thermal stress. The Marjan 2000-liter polyethylene tank is engineered specifically for these harsh conditions, utilizing a blow-molding process that creates a uniform wall thickness. Unlike thin-walled alternatives often found in general hardware stores, this tank withstands direct sunlight and sandstorms without cracking, ensuring your water supply remains safe for your family of four or larger households.

Understanding Capacity: 500 vs. 1000 vs. 2000 Gallons

When searching for water tanks at lowe's, you often encounter capacity discrepancies between US gallons and liters. A standard 500-gallon tank (approx. 1,900 liters) is the sweet spot for a medium-sized family in a multi-story apartment, reducing the need for frequent refills. The larger 1,000-gallon options (approx. 3,800 liters) are better suited for villas or construction sites requiring long-term storage during dry seasons. Our featured Marjan unit offers a 2000-liter capacity (roughly 528 US gallons), providing a balance between ground-space efficiency and storage volume. For a family of 4, a 2000-liter tank typically covers daily consumption for about 15 to 20 days, assuming an average usage of 150 liters per person per day.

Installation and Maintenance Tips for 2026

Installing a horizontal blow-molding water tank like the Marjan model requires a stable, level foundation to prevent structural stress. In Saudi Arabia, we recommend placing the tank on a concrete slab at least 20cm thick. If you are using a water tank with pump system, ensure the pump is mounted on a vibration-isolated base separate from the tank itself to extend motor life. Regular cleaning is essential; drain the tank annually to remove sediment, especially after heavy rains or dust storms. Check the inlet and outlet valves for corrosion, as the high salinity in some Saudi regions can accelerate rust on metal fittings attached to the polyethylene shell.
