Here’s a project I did friday and today. I had a 35 gallon leg tank on my truck that I used for chlorine. To save space, I decided to get a 42 gallon rectangular RV water tank and build a mount for it to go underneath the bed in between my truck’s frame rails.
I love it. Lower center of gravity, keeps the SH out of the sun, and less spillage on your equipment (assuming you have some kind of remote filling setup with check valves or whatever?)
Love the math, as well. I was that nerd that as soon as I learned the basic trigonometric functions, I found a real world application for it (sizing roof trusses for an addition we put on our house. I was 14)
The filling setup is pretty simple. There is a few feet of kuritek coming off the side of the tank to a female stainless steel qc fitting. The filling hose has a stainless female, so hook them up and pump away. The corner of the tank has a vent hose. No check valves.
Although it did just occur to me that I could’ve just pumped sh in through the outlet at the bottom, it would’ve easily overcome the head pressure. There was no need for me to open up another hole at the top. Oh well, it will work fine still.
