Description
A site towable water bowser on a steel framework and running gear, with a 250 gallon poly tank as standard. Because it is towed rather than plumbed in, one bowser can serve several work fronts in a day instead of committing you to a single standpipe position — which is usually the reason a site buys one rather than running a temporary main.
Capacity and specification
- Standard tank: 250 gallons, roughly 1,140 litres
- Also available: 110 gallon (about 500 litre) and 440 gallon (about 2,000 litre) tanks
- Steel framework and running gear, built for rough compound ground
- Poly tank holding non-drinkable water only, never to be plumbed into a drinking supply
- Towable around site as standard; a road-towable build can be specified
- Diesel bowsers offered as a separate line
Where the water actually goes
Damping down haul roads, washing wheels at the gate, keeping welfare tanks charged, water for concreting and compaction work, and topping up plant. Every one of those follows the works around the site as they progress, and that is exactly why a tank on a drawbar earns its place over a fixed connection.
Match the tank to the tow vehicle, not just the demand
The obvious approach is to size the tank against daily draw, and the obvious approach gets people stuck. A full 440 gallon tank is around two tonnes of water plus the frame, and on soft ground in winter that is a significant towed weight for whatever telehandler or 4×4 you actually have on site. Two runs with a 250 gallon unit you can move is more useful than one run with a tank that beds in. Work it out against the vehicle before you order the largest one.
Delivery and road use
Delivery is free anywhere we deliver in the UK, including Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man, Jersey and Guernsey, and the price shown is the total payable with no VAT added at checkout. The standard unit is site towable, which means it is for use within the compound — if the bowser will leave site at any point, specify the road towable version at the time of ordering rather than afterwards. It arrives on its own running gear, so it can be drawn off the delivery vehicle rather than needing a lift. You retain 14 days to change your mind under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, and separately 30 days to reject the goods if they are faulty under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.
The rest of the compound
A water supply is only half of a welfare arrangement. The units themselves sit in our site cabin range, toilet blocks among them, such as the 6+1 steel toilet cabin. Deal with the other end of the system using the double mains toilet waste tank. Further compound equipment appears under cabin accessories; for a size that is not shown here, contact us.
