What are the key points to keep in mind when choosing a stainless steel water tank?

1. Pay attention to the material of the water tank

Hefei stainless steel water tanks are made of stainless steel plates, which have many types. According to relevant national standards, SUS304 stainless steel plates, commonly known as "edible grade stainless steel plates," must be used for the production of stainless steel tanks (including insulated water tanks for solar water heaters). This type of steel plate has a high nickel content and high corrosion resistance, The water tank made of this steel plate generally has a lifespan of more than 20 years and can meet the national hygiene standards for drinking water. Due to market competition and the inability of ordinary people to distinguish the materials of stainless steel, many individual small factories use non edible grade steel plates (such as decorative stainless steel plate 201) to make water tanks. The cost can be reduced by more than 50%, but the service life can only be a few years, and those with poor water quality may even corrode and leak in a few weeks.

2. Pay attention to the thickness of the steel plate

The thickness of stainless steel plates is in millimeters. Generally, household water tanks (below 2M3) are usually made of 0.4-0.5mm thick steel plates, and rarely use steel plates above 1.0mm. Some manufacturers, in order to deceive the people and obtain illegal profits, boast about the thickness of steel plates without authorization and increase customers' purchasing desire, which is extremely unethical. Conditional customers can use a spiral micrometer to measure the thickness of the steel plate, or use a weighing method to measure. The weight of the thick plate should be heavier, and there will be a material cost difference of nearly 50 yuan for one kilogram.

3. Pay attention to the capacity of the water tank

According to industry practice, stainless steel water tanks in Hefei are measured in cubic meters. A cubic meter of stainless steel water tank can hold one ton of water, commonly known as a one ton water tank. At present, there is a widespread fraud in the market, where one ton of water tanks can only hold 400 kilograms of water, which is far from enough.

4. Pay attention to after-sales service

A good product must have standardized after-sales service and commitment guarantees. In short, as customers cannot be proficient in every industry, it is best for them to choose products from reputable manufacturers when purchasing and installing stainless steel water tanks. Otherwise, they may look cheap and often buy counterfeit and inferior products.

The products of legitimate manufacturers generally have the following characteristics:

(1) The product manufacturer's name, address, phone number, and other signs are complete.

(2) Has a registered trademark.

(3) There are product user manuals and warranty documents.
