RODI water tank stands

[nasdds]

Anyone have any ideas or links to a product for cheaper options for stands for my two norwesco water containers (55 and 65 gallons). I’ve seen people use cinder blocks or 2x4 stands but I was hoping for a product I could just buy. Thanks.

Look for hot water tank stands if they are used in your area.

Thank you. Yea I’ve been checking marketplace for those. I’ll continue. Thank you.

They might not be used in your area if water heaters are not normally located in the garage.

I have similar reservoirs (65g x 2) on a rack shelving unit in my garage.
I put them on an easy-to-assemble shelving unit I ordered from Lowes. Heavy duty version and rated at 2000lbs per shelf.


Lowes did not have it in stock but was easy to order.
here is the link...

Gladiator Steel Heavy Duty 4-Tier Utility Shelving Unit (60-in W x 18-in D x 72-in H)​

It was approx $300.
I have had it for a couple years now with no issues.
Hope this helps or gives some ideas.

I have a little wheeled dolly from harbor freight that was very cheap and works for me for a 30 gallons container

My mixing tank isn't hard plumbed though so that's a difference

it seems like my sw tank, 125g, is needing water about every 4 to 5 days. not much, maybe half a gallon, is this normal? i have no leaks and it is a brand new tank.

Half gallon every 4 days? Id say that’s a low amount of evaporation. My 180g goes through between 2-3 gallons a day.

It has a lot to do with your house climate and if you have a lid or not.

Consider yourself lucky if it’s only that much you need. The only way that isn’t normal is in a good way.

That would be an easy stand to build; some 2x4s, and a sheet of 3/4 ply
