where do you find sealed plastic tanks for ro/di water?

[mfinn]

Looking for a new container that has a screw on lid. The bigger the lid, the better.
Also needs to be able to see water level inside.
I've been using a 32 gallon brute container, but need something with a lid that will seal.

I found one at US Plastic but it just a tad smaller than what I want.
20" x 28" with a 12" lid would be perfect.

Anyone have any leads?

Looked there, but didn't see anything that I wanted.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Vittles Vault Outback 80 lb Airtight Pet Food Storage Container https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0002DJOP2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_meypBbKNCE76W

Has a screw on lid just like their 5 gallon bucket lid's. I use two of them for water.

I use the 50 lb. vittles vault for a top off container for my 50.
The biggest one is only 20 gallons.
I'm looking for something over 30 gallons.

But it is a awesome container.

Check Tractor Supply or a local farm supply store. they typically carry poly tanks at reasonable prices.

That's a good lead.

The closest one to what I'm looking for, I found on Amazon.
A 30 gallon open top container with a plastic lid and plastic lever lock.
Still not exactly what I was looking for, but should work.

I bought 2 norwesco 100 gallon tanks on plastic mart and was able to pick them up directly from the manufacturer at their NY branch.

I buy mine used from Craigs list. I buy the 50 gal food safe containers or the big 275 with a metal cage around it. The white ones

I'm not looking for a 50 gallon barrel, or a 275

i use this, 35 gallons. i installed an RO float valve in the top of the tank and a stainless ball valve (had one handy) for the outlet. (https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/horizontal-leg-tank-35-gal?cm_vc=-10005)


perhaps more info on the use of the tank would make it easier for suggestions? I also use plastic inductor tanks for several things, large conical tanks with huge openings on top. (https://www.amazon.com/Gallon-Drain...&qid=1533915314&sr=8-1&keywords=inductor+tank)
