800 Litre Baffled Upright Water Tank
Product Overview
The 800 Litre Upright Baffled Water Tank is a robust and versatile solution for the storage and transportation of potable water and a wide range of other compatible liquids.
Manufactured from durable MDPE / polyethylene, this upright tank provides a substantial 800 litre storage capacity, equivalent to approximately 175 imperial gallons. Its upright configuration provides a practical solution where a large volume of water is required while making efficient use of available floor space.
The tank incorporates an integrated baffling system, with grooves and openings passing through the tank to help disrupt the movement of water. These internal baffles help reduce water sloshing from side to side during transportation, making the tank particularly suitable for mobile applications such as professional window cleaning, car valeting, vehicle cleaning and other liquid transportation requirements.
The natural version is manufactured from translucent medium-density polyethylene, allowing the approximate water level to be viewed through the tank. This provides a convenient way to monitor the remaining water supply without having to remove the lid.
The tank is supplied with a 1" BSP outlet and an 8" lid. A range of optional accessories is available, allowing the tank to be configured for different applications.
With dimensions of approximately 700 × 1250 × 1095 mm and an empty weight of approximately 52 kg, this tank provides a useful combination of high capacity, durability and upright storage.

Upright Design
The 800 Litre Upright Baffled Water Tank has been designed to provide a substantial volume of water storage in a practical upright configuration.
Measuring approximately 700 × 1250 × 1095 mm, the tank makes efficient use of available floor space while providing 800 litres of nominal storage.
The upright design can be particularly useful where floor area is limited but sufficient vertical clearance is available.
The tank is suitable for a wide range of applications, including:
- Professional window cleaning
- Car valeting
- Mobile vehicle cleaning
- Mobile pressure washing
- Commercial cleaning
- Potable water storage
- Agricultural applications
- Horticultural applications
- Irrigation
- Vehicle-based water systems
- Temporary water storage
- General-purpose liquid storage
Before ordering, the available installation area should be checked carefully to ensure sufficient space is available around the tank and above the lid.
Integrated Baffle System
The tank incorporates an integrated internal baffling system designed to reduce the movement of water when the tank is being transported.
The baffles are created through grooves and openings that pass through the tank. These interrupt the movement of liquid and help reduce water sloshing from side to side.
This makes the tank particularly suitable for mobile applications where water needs to be transported in a vehicle or trailer.
The baffled design is particularly beneficial for:
- Window cleaning
- Car valeting
- Vehicle cleaning
- Mobile pressure washing
- Commercial cleaning
- Vehicle-mounted water systems
- Liquid transportation
Reducing liquid movement can help improve stability during transportation, particularly when accelerating, braking and cornering.
The baffles reduce water movement but do not eliminate it completely. The tank must therefore be appropriately installed and securely restrained before transportation.
Please also note that the internal baffle design reduces the usable capacity of the tank.
Ideal for Window Cleaning
The 800 litre capacity makes this tank particularly suitable for professional window cleaning businesses requiring a substantial mobile water supply.
The upright design provides a large water reserve while keeping the tank's footprint relatively practical for vehicle-based applications.
The internal baffles help reduce water movement while the tank is being transported, making the tank suitable for mobile window cleaning systems when correctly installed and secured.
The natural translucent construction also allows the approximate water level to be monitored, making it easier to determine when the tank needs to be refilled.
The standard 1" BSP outlet can be connected to compatible pumps, hoses and other window cleaning equipment.
Ideal for Car Valeting
The tank is also well suited to professional car valeting and mobile vehicle cleaning applications.
An 800 litre water reserve provides a substantial supply for mobile cleaning operations, allowing work to be carried out away from a fixed mains water connection.
The baffled construction helps reduce water movement while the tank is being transported.
Optional taps, hose connections, filter baskets, float valves and other accessories allow the tank to be configured around the requirements of the individual application.
