Water Infrastructure for Every Data Center Need

💧

Cooling Tower Makeup Water

Buffer reserves for municipal supply disruptions, peak demand protection, and phased facility expansion. Evaporative cooling systems require continuous water supply.

🔥

Fire Suppression & Protection

NFPA 22 compliant water storage for sprinkler, standpipe, and pre-action fire suppression systems. Complete with insulation, heating, and SherCoat coating.

Thermal Energy Storage

Chilled water TES systems for peak load shifting. Stratified storage design enables full and partial storage strategies with redundant capacity.

Cooling Tower Makeup Water

Evaporative cooling towers reject server heat using water evaporation, making them far more efficient than air-cooled systems. They consume water but eliminate massive electrical loads from mechanical cooling. On-site water storage provides:

Evaporative Cooling Efficiency

Evaporative cooling towers are the most efficient way to manage data center heat loads. They require continuous water supply that on-site storage guarantees even during municipal disruptions.

🛠

Buffer Reserves for Supply Disruptions

Municipal water mains can break, pressure can drop, and treatment plants can have issues. On-site storage provides hours or days of buffer capacity to ride through disruptions.

📈

Peak Demand Protection

Summer peak cooling demand can exceed municipal supply capacity. On-site storage allows the facility to pre-fill during off-peak hours and draw from reserves during peak demand.

📌

Phased Facility Expansion

Modular bolted steel tanks can be expanded as the facility grows. Add capacity in phases that match your build-out schedule without over-investing upfront.

NFPA 22 Compliant Fire Suppression Storage

Data center fire protection requires dedicated water storage that meets NFPA 22, local fire codes, and insurance requirements. Our fire protection packages include:

  • NFPA 22 compliant design with sealed engineering drawings
  • SherCoat powder-coated interior and exterior for 30+ year life
  • Complete insulation package with freeze protection heating
  • High/low level monitoring and control systems
  • Fire department connections and dry hydrant fittings
  • Sprinkler, standpipe, and pre-action system connections
  • AHJ documentation for permit and insurance approval

Peak Load Shifting with Chilled Water TES

Thermal energy storage (TES) allows data centers to shift cooling loads from expensive peak hours to off-peak hours, reducing energy costs by 20-40% while improving cooling redundancy.

Chilled Water TES Systems

Store chilled water during off-peak hours when electricity is cheap. Deploy stored cooling during peak demand periods to reduce chiller operation and electrical costs.

📈

Stratified Storage Design

Thermally stratified tanks maintain a sharp boundary between warm return water and cold supply water, maximizing storage efficiency and cooling capacity.

🔍

Full & Partial Storage Strategies

Full storage eliminates all peak-period chiller operation. Partial storage reduces peak chiller capacity requirements. We engineer the optimal strategy for your facility.

🛡

Redundant Capacity

TES tanks provide inherent redundancy for cooling systems. If a chiller fails, stored chilled water provides emergency cooling capacity while repairs are made.

Why Choose TanksCo for Data Centers

We understand the unique requirements of mission-critical facilities.

🔧

Bolted Flat Panel Construction

Factory-manufactured panels with precision-drilled bolt holes ensure consistent quality and fast field assembly. No welding, no hot work permits required on your data center campus.

🚚

Rapid Deployment

Bolted steel tanks install in days, not months. Our lifting jack erection method requires no cranes, minimizing disruption to active data center operations.

📌

Scalable & Expandable

Add capacity as your facility grows. Bolted construction allows tanks to be expanded in place or additional tanks to be deployed as build-out phases progress.
