Tire Water Tank Install | Simple Start to Finish Tutorial for Your Farm

What happens here

Use a backhoe (e.g., Woods BH100) or other heavy machinery to lift and precisely set the large, cut tire onto the compacted rock dust base. Ensure the tire is level and centered. Lay the prepared black poly pipe and assembled PVC structures (inlet riser with float valve stand, and the U-shaped drain pipe) into their respective trenches. Connect the water supply line to the float valve stand and the drain line to the U-shaped drain pipe. Partially backfill the trenches to stabilize the pipes, ensuring proper alignment before full burial. Use a tamper to compact the soil around the pipes.

Goal: Place the cut tire onto the prepared base and carefully install the assembled plumbing components within the trench and through the tire.

What they say

Hide

mound it up right here in kind of a circular pattern. And then we'll take the BH100 from Woods and we'll set this right over on top of all these pipes. Then we'll cut the pipe to the appropriate level and we'll start putting in concrete. We won't be able to put water in until first thing in the morning. So, let's get busy. We'll get you guys some awesome time lapse of what's going on.
