General
Position
Although the tank will change its shape to fit the space where it is
installed, the tank should preferably be installed in a compartment
taking the following into account:
The tank must be easily accessible for inspection.
The tank should always be installed above the maximum bilge water
level.
The compartment must be properly ventilated.
The compartment dimensions should relate to the tank dimensions.
When filled, the tank should find sufficient support at the sides with
enough free space at the top. With reference to the height, do not
forget to take into account the hose connectors and hoses.
The hull and sides must be smooth. If not, then cover them with felt
or foam.
Instal fixing points to secure the tank in the compartment.
Choose a position for the deck filler cap so that the filler hose can be
as short as possible, going straight from the filler cap to the tank and
as short as possible.
