Run a recirculating system? It’s okay, we’re not offended, it’s watering systems off a ducks back to us. But if you are going eschew gravity-fed systems such as AutoPot and invest money in driving your nutrient solution by pump you’re going to want a reservoir that’s up to the rigours of constant ingress and outflow. Fortunately for you (and the purposes of this post) we’ve got just the thing. Flaunting its charms with glorious abandon, this summer FlexiTank has gone Tapless!
The best collapsible reservoirs in the business are now available ‘in the altogether’, their smooth, seductive, bare blue skin uninterrupted by a tap. Save for three perfectly proportioned ports they’ve gone nothing on! These ultra-durable, high performance tanks are ideal for those who run recirculating systems or those who just want a reservoir in which to mix nutrient solution. Lets get a closer look shall we?
Available in 100, 250, 400, and 750 litre sizes, Tapless FlexiTanks offer the exact same levels of design and construction that have made the original FlexiTank such a peerless, runaway success. Tapless FlexiTanks feature no tap (!) and the aforementioned three ports just below the max. fill line. These reinforced ports allow you to securely connect your outbound pipe, inbound pipe, and the power supply for your pump.
For maximum flexibility the outlet and inlet ports have been produced to a 25mm diameter with the latest in recirculating systems in mind. Using readily available adapters these are also compatible with 16mm pipe and fittings. The power port measures 16mm across and accepts a power port grommet (commonly available from system suppliers) for safe, sag-free cable routing.
It’s the thicker, more durable skins, the higher grade seals and fittings, and the speed and ease of assembly that sets these reservoirs apart from their cheap imitators. When it comes to it, who wouldn’t rather have a FlexiTank holding their water? True, you can spend 75-80% of the money on a lesser copy, but who wants to be 75-80% confident in their reservoir?
Whatever cultivation method you use, FlexiTank now has a water storage solution for you. Original FlexiTanks for gravity fed systems in seven sizes from 25 L / 6.6 gal – 1000L / 265 gal, heat and light reflective FlexiTank Pro, and now the legendary performance and build quality of a Tapless FlexiTank for recirculators – it’s okay, you’re welcome.
