Water tank inside V of 12x6 cargo trailer

Postby sbshaver » Tue Nov 04, 2014 2:39 am

I'd like to put plastic h2o tank inside the V of my CT, 30-40 gallons. *Inside* the trailer, does anyone make a tank that's roughly triangular so as not to waste precious space?

I personally wouldn't think that the difference between custom made tanks in either plastic or stainless steel would outweigh the fact that plastic tank water dosn't taste half as good.
Another option is a water bladder
They are supposedly made of tasteless product but I can't confirm and conform to the shape of boat hulls ect

Or you just use regular drinking water containers for drinking and cooking and use the big tank water for other use. That way, there are many options. This is going to be my approach.

Water tank inside V of 12x6 cargo trailer

There are triangle shape H2O VERTICAL tanks that are made for horse trailers. They have a spigot close to the bottom and an opening at the top. They have different sizes, 18, 25, & larger. Those are the only two that I was interested in but there are larger. I don't remember where I saw it but it was off of a link someone posted.

I'll see if I can find the link & then post it.

Try here: http://www.horsetraileraccessorystore.com/water_acc.htm (scroll down the page)

BTW, even though this site sells horse trailer accessories, it is a good source for vents, trim, hardware, etc.
