Water Tanks With Altitude
From afar, they look like super stout jumbo pencils with sharpened heads. They are sometimes hidden behind brick walls when the owners are displeased with the sight of them. These water tanks that line the New York City landscape are a source of pride for two particular men. The two men inherited their centuries old family businesses that deal with wooden tanks.
New York City's wooden tanks are handled by these two rival companies. These gentlemen find amusement in the fact that despite the fastchanging times and technological development, New York City still depends on their wooden tanks. Steel water tanks like the one on the Empire State Building do exist. However, wood has more advantages over steel such as better insulation, easy reparability and the need to be painted every 5 years can be disregarded. Wooden tanks are utilized even by US steel companies. This water tanks article is proudly brought to you by rain water tank.
One gentleman said that they last long in fact, they just replaced a tank that his father had put up in 1926. While wooden water tanks are used on some buildings in other large cities in New York, with its great density of tall apartment buildings, they are fixtures on the landscape. Without these tanks, there is a deficiency in the skyline.
These water tanks became a constitutional requirement for tall buildings so that in the occurrence of fire, water will be readily available. A few buildings, like the World Trade Center before it was hit by terrorists, used electrical pumps alone to bring water up from the city's underground pipes. The supply of water on the topmost floors is made possible by having the pumps run all day and all night. Energy conservation is a primary principle behind these rooftop tanks since they have no need for continuously running pumps to bring water back and forth floors. Gravity then allows the water to flow to each floor as needed. A common rooftop tank is 12 feet high. set up on a steel structure that is 20 feet high and has a total volume capacity of 10000 gallons. There is a small amount of danger when strong winds are present because these tanks are installed on high altitudes.
These rooftop tanks are built from factory cut redwood or cedar staves, set up on the roof and fixed with galvanized iron hoops. Aside from keeping the tank rain, snow and contaminant free, the pyramidal lids also has an insulation role by trapping air inside during winter. The tank becomes watertight because two contradicting forces are present the hoops pressing in and the water pressing out. One company has its factory in Philadelphia, while its rival company is located in the New York City borough of Brooklyn. There is a peculiar sense of beauty in these tanks and both company owners believe so. To explore the area of water tanks browse our site on rainwater harvesting.
In this day and age, most people have chosen to keep these tanks hidden from sight by building walls around them. These water tanks are appreciated just the way they are by the artists in Soho who find beauty in most everything. A water tank within a yuppie's range of vision is intolerable.
