Tank capacity depends on your household size and daily usage. A common rule is to allow around 135–150 litres of water per person per day. For a typical family of 4–5, a 1000-litre tank is usually sufficient for one day's storage, while larger families or homes wanting a backup buffer often choose 1500–2000 litre tanks. Varsha offers a wide range of capacities to match your needs.
Black and darker tanks block sunlight and UV rays, which prevents algae growth and keeps water cleaner for longer. White or translucent tanks allow light to pass through, encouraging algae. Varsha's Premium Black and Eco Blue tanks are made with UV-resistant, opaque material that stops algae formation and protects water quality.
Most water experts recommend cleaning a storage tank every 3–6 months to remove sediment and prevent bacterial buildup. If you want to avoid this hassle entirely, Varsha's Swachh Auto Clean Tank is India's first self-cleaning tank, which flushes out settled dust and sediment on its own, drastically reducing the need for manual cleaning.
Multi-layer tanks offer better insulation, strength, and protection against UV and algae compared to single-layer tanks. Varsha tanks are manufactured from 100% virgin food-grade polyethylene with UV protection, ensuring durability, hygiene, and a longer service life.
With quality UV-stabilised, non-corroding polyethylene construction, Varsha tanks are built to last for many years even under harsh sun and weather conditions. Because they don't rust, corrode, or need repainting, they outlast traditional R.C.C. and metal tanks while staying maintenance-free.
Clean water in a covered, hygienic tank can generally be stored for a few days to a week without issue. Beyond that, stagnation, sediment, and contamination risk increase. Keeping the tank covered, using food-grade material, and cleaning it regularly (or using a self-cleaning tank) keeps stored water safe for longer.
A soak pit allows treated wastewater from a septic tank to safely percolate into the ground, preventing waterlogging and surface contamination. Varsha's advanced polyethylene soak pit works alongside the Haritham septic system to ensure clean, eco-friendly disposal of treated water.
Varsha manufactures specialized chemical tanks built to safely store a variety of chemicals for industrial use, and its food-grade containers are trusted in the Ayurveda and food industries. For specific temperature or chemical compatibility, it's best to confirm the right model with the Varsha team before purchase.
