Question 1

Would this tank be strong enough to use in the bed of a pickup truck for mobile car detailing without warping or breaking?

Accepted Answer

Yes it would be strong enough but definitely too small.  It’s not made for mobile car wash.  You need a much much bigger tank

Question 2

if vented can a garden hose be fitted to it?

Accepted Answer

All water tanks we carry must be vented, they are not pressurized tanks.
You must allow air to move in and out when filling and emptying the tank. Do NOT fill the tank directly from a pressurized line (garden hose), this is not a safe option and will explode the tank. We recommend using a fill dish to allow for gravity feeding of the tank, please review our plumbing example for more information.

The fill dish is located on the outside of your unit so that you can easily add water to your tank without the need of opening a compartment or climbing under your unit. You can find the fill dishes in the Plumbing Category.
*For adding water to the Water Tank you need a Gravity Fill Dish, the hose rests in the port it does not screw onto the port this allows you to place a garden hose into the Gravity Fill Dish port without making a sealed connection so the supply is not pressurized.
*For using water directly from a garden hose you need a City Fill Dish, the hose makes a sealed connection and the water supply is pressurized, you can not hook this to your water tank and you do not need to go through your water pump.

*But what if I only turn the garden hose on half way?
Customers who do this still explode the tank because you can not determine the pressure of the water flowing only the amount of water.

*I am not using a fill dish how can I fill the tank?
We recommend you place a fitting in the tank that will allow you to rest the hose in to fill, not make a sealed connection, you can then cap this when not in use. You can use an elbow fitting to allow you the fill the tank to capacity, use an elbow with a screen secured over it to vent the tank.

*Can I put a cap on and off of the tank?
If you are needing to use a fitting by adding and removing a cap, remember tank must be vented allowing air in/out during use, we recommend you place a fitting in the tank and a cap on that fitting in order to prevent damage to the tank fitting.

Question 3

What is the highest temperature water this tank can support?

Accepted Answer

NSF Testing on Tank Material - Domestic hot - The temperature used during testing is 60 +/- 2°C (140 +/- 4 °F) and appears in Listings as "D. Hot". This is intended to apply to product applications where the product is used for either cold (ambient temperatures) or hot water up to domestic hot temperatures.

Question 4

What is the recommended mounting materials such as brackets/angle iron and where should they be positioned on the tank for mounting under a van frame?

Accepted Answer

Tanks can be installed inside or outside of unit, for food vendors verify requirements before purchasing as some areas do not allow tanks to be outside of the unit and others do not allow the tank to be inside of the unit.
Be sure to Sanitize Tank before installing.

All tanks must be braced and secured to prevent any movement of the tank while in transit and to prevent possibility of tank tipping or falling.
Due to the manufacturing process all the tanks especially the larger in size will have a bowing to the walls, when the tank is filled the tank will expand out removing the inward bow, we recommend laying all tanks on a level surface (this can be angled to help with drainage) and bracing the tanks. For larger tanks it is recommended to brace all side walls with plywood or metal, we do not recommend using ratchet straps on the tanks alone as this is a large amount of weight on a thin strip and may cause cutting into the tank. For tanks placed outside it is also recommend to enclose tanks using sheet metal / plywood or some other type of weather proof material to prevent damage from road debris and speed bumps, be sure to check your clearance before ordering.

Brackets or Strap Systems Due to the variety of installations we do not carry brackets or bracing systems
