Do i need to protect my water storage tanks from frost?
Yes, though this can be done easily and cheaply. Plastic tanks of special construction may be purchased which resist frost though they tend to be rather more expensive than conventional plastic water tanks. Sighting your tank under trees or in some outhouse or barn will usually suffice and prevent freezing problems. The construction of a simple roofed structure will often reduce the risk of freezing too, and be may be easily insulated in the roof area to create sufficient ‘indoor’ effect – as to keep frost out.
