What is the current price for a 2000 liter geepee tank for household water storage?

We just sunk a new borehole in our compound and we need a highly durable overhead water storage tank. Geepee is the most trusted brand I know. What is the current authentic market price for a massive 2000 liter geepee tank? Does the black colored tank actually prevent algae growth inside the water compared to the blue or green tanks?

Geepee remains the undisputed gold standard for water storage in Nigeria due to the exceptional thickness and UV resistance of their plastics. The current authentic market price for a massive 2000 liter geepee tank typically ranges between 110,000 and 140,000 Naira. This price heavily depends on the logistics of transporting the massive empty tank from the dealer to your compound so ensure you negotiate the delivery truck fee upfront. A 2000 liter tank provides an excellent water reserve for a standard four bedroom household ensuring you have sufficient water pressure for several days even if the borehole pump develops a fault or NEPA refuses to supply power.

Your question regarding the color of the 2000 liter geepee tank is highly scientific and critical for water hygiene. You must absolutely purchase the black colored tank for outdoor overhead storage. The black pigment acts as a complete blackout barrier preventing any sunlight from penetrating the plastic walls of the tank. Algae requires sunlight and stagnant water to photosynthesize and grow. If you buy a blue green or white tank sunlight will pierce the translucent plastic and within a few months the inside of your tank will be coated in a thick layer of toxic green slime contaminating your water supply. The black Geepee tank starves the algae of sunlight ensuring your borehole water remains crystal clear and safe for years.

I made the mistake of buying a blue tank because I thought it looked prettier. Six months later my tap water started smelling like a swamp. The plumber opened the tank and it was full of green algae. Always buy the black Geepee tank for outdoor use.

Make sure your welder builds a highly reinforced metal scaffolding stand for the tank. 2000 liters of water weighs exactly 2000 kilograms (2 tonnes). If the iron stand is weak or uses thin pipes the sheer weight of the water will collapse the stand and destroy your roof.

Geepee tanks are the best. They are built with three layers of plastic. The inside layer is usually white food grade plastic so you can easily see if the water is dirty and it does not leave a plastic taste in your drinking water.
