ATO containers

[snulma1]

Does anyone know of someone who makes acrylic ATO containers for custom sizes? I bought a cabinet to hide lots of my equipment and wiring but finding an ATO reservoir that fits inside is proving difficult

If you have a Container Store or a restaurant supply nearby, they have some nice food grade containers in various sizes and shapes.

Depending on how much space you have under there, you might want to look at either a pet food container or a rubbermaid container. These can be found at places like Walmart, Target, Petco/Petsmart. I use a food container from petco and it can probably hold about 8 gallons but I don't fill it up all the way.

Looking for something to fit a specific size

 

[mnkykng77]

What are the specs for the area that you need to fit it into?

Try here. He does custom sizes as well, you just have to email him to request pricing. I had him make a custom overflow box for me and the work was outstanding.

The space is about 11.5x11.5x18.
But I'd like it to be 10x10x15 to make it easy putting it into the cabinet

For a small job like ATO, why not just build it yourself?

 

[snulma1]

Because it will probably cost me just as much to build it and the quality will DEFINITELY suffer!

This might work and is about $20 if you have a tap plastics near you

i emailed melev over 2 weeks ago...no response. I'm moving on from dealing with him

That's weird. I emailed yesterday and he got back to me in 2-3 hrs

Go to Lowes, get some of their OPTIX 24-in x 4-ft x 0.22-in Clear Acrylic Sheets, cut them to the dimensions you need (don't go over 12" high), buy some IPS Weld-On, and you have a custom ATO container. It will be cheaper and you might even make some $$$ when you sale. I've been doing this for years.
