Domestic Water Supply with Gravity Tank
The domestic water supply system with gravity tank is presented below
The domestic water supply system with gravity tank is presented below
For proper operation of the system, the gravity tank is located at least 30 ft or 10 m above the highest outlet or consumer. In tall buildings it's necessary to use pressure reducing valves in the lowest floors before the fittings.
The volume of the tank must be designed to compensate for the limited capacity of the supply lines. The tank fills up when the consumption of hot and cold water is lower than the capacity of the supply lines - and the tank is emptied when the consumption is higher than the supply lines capacity.
A drawback with the system with the open gravity tank on the top floor is the potential danger of freezing during winter conditions. Huge tanks will also influence the construction of the building
