Description
A fill port tank is a fiberglass-reinforced pressure vessel designed to hold filtration media used in water treatment and purification systems. The tank features a top-mounted fill port opening that allows for the easy loading, replacement, and maintenance of filter media such as Calcite and Corosex.
Purpose
- Houses filtration or treatment media in residential, commercial, and industrial water treatment systems.
- Provides a durable, corrosion-resistant vessel for long-term operation in pressurized water systems.
- Allows convenient media loading and servicing through the fill port opening.
