Why Reliable Water Storage Is Essential in Hotels and Resorts
In the hospitality sector, guest comfort is everything — and that means uninterrupted access to clean, pressurised water. Whether it’s for hot showers, kitchen operations, or spa facilities, having the right water storage infrastructure in place is critical. In this blog, we explore the best water storage solutions for hotels and resorts, with expert insight from Tricel Water.
Understanding Water Demands in Hospitality Settings
Hotels and resorts experience highly variable water usage patterns. Demand can spike during peak occupancy times — mornings, evenings, and during large events. Water is needed for showers, laundry, kitchens, pools, and more. In large facilities, this can translate to thousands of litres of water used each day.
To ensure reliable supply, a well-designed water storage system must be capable of handling peak demand without compromising pressure or hygiene.
Tank Sizing and Design for Peak Usage
Correctly sizing your cold water storage tank is essential to guarantee a constant supply, even during busy periods. Sizing depends on factors such as:
- Number of rooms and guests
- Amenities such as spas, pools, or gyms
- On-site restaurants or catering operations
- Local water supply reliability
Tricel’s team can help you assess daily and peak consumption rates to recommend an appropriately sized one-piece or sectional tank, tailored to your facility layout and installation constraints.



Separate Storage for Hot and Cold Water: To ensure water hygiene and avoid cross-contamination, hot and cold water should always be stored in separate tanks or chambers.
Consistent Water Pressure with Booster Sets: Installing booster pump sets helps maintain steady water pressure throughout the building — especially important for guest comfort in multi-storey hotels and resorts.
Hygiene & Compliance Features: Tricel tanks can be customised with screened vents, secure lids, and overflow protection. In certain applications, CAT5 backflow protection is also essential to prevent contamination and meet regulatory standards.
Why Choose GRP Tanks?
Tricel’s GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) tanks are ideal for hospitality environments. Here’s why:
- Durability – Resistant to corrosion, cracks, and impact, offering long life with minimal maintenance.
