*The mentioned warranties from both of the manufactures do not include freeze damage. Intex warranty claims ship directly to the customer and can be DIY installations requiring minimal tools. We provide videos to assist and are always available for questions. Waterway repairs are best completed by our team and will require a service call charge.
Hydrogen Peroxide Treatment:
***Hydrogen peroxide is not an FDA approved treatment method. There are pros and cons to all treatment methods and it is for each pool owner to decide what works best for your setup***
We recommend researching hydrogen peroxide as a possible alternative to chlorine. We decided to try H2O2 and have enjoyed it for over 5 years. It is healthy for people and pets as well as grass, plants, and trees when you drain. It can be maintained between 50-70 ppm with test strips but does need some sunlight to be most effective. Hotter water temperatures and/or too much sunlight can cause quick dissipation. Let us know in the order notes if you are wanting to add the $55 kit (1 gallon 27% hydrogen peroxide, 100 test strips, & measuring cup) to your order. If you try the H2O2 and don’t have success, chlorine can be substituted after a short dilution period.
Tank Info:
Our tanks are stored in warehouses to ensure they remain clean and dry before arriving to your space. While the chance of leak is rare, we will repair or replace any tanks that show one upon filling. All galvanized stock tanks come with minor dents, scuffs, and scratches but getting them directly helps to minimize imperfections. We use artificial turf to avoid any damage when receiving, storing, and transporting.
All Hastings tanks can be +/- 6″ from the stated size.
From Hastings “The Black Label stock tank has been the industry standard for decades. It is one of the few tanks on the market still made out of all 20GA, G90 steel. We know that producers need reliable, long term infrastructure and that cheap won’t cut it. Other manufacturers use cheaper materials and avoid talking about their warranties on stock tanks, but we are proud to promote our industry leading 5 year warranty on our Black Label tanks. Other features include: 4-ply lock seams with contained sealant for maximum leak protection, .875″ steel pipe rolled into the top of each tank to create a crush proof rim.
The warranty mentioned above is void if you choose to turn the tank into a pool. We chose to leave it in the description in case of alternative use not involving modification or sanitizers. Also, to speak to the quality of their tanks as no other manufacturers have a similar offering.
