Water Meters, Water Storage Tanks

Univision Communications, Inc. (‘Univision’) is the leading Spanish-language media company in the United States. Their powerhouse portfolio includes television, radio, music, and internet offerings that entertain and inform more Hispanics each day than any other media company in the country. 

Univision needed a fire protection system and a water storage tank for its newly built Houston offices. After careful consideration and research, they chose the ParkUSA BreakTank™ as the optimal storage tank option. 

We provided a 13-foot wide by 20-foot-long and 17-foot three-inches tall 30,000-gallon fire tank. This tank is a city-approved single compartment model providing ample water supply for the building’s fire protection system. Although as wide as a two-lane highway, the tank was factory-built and shipped complete to the job site. Upon arrival, the tank was set in place in less than two hours. 

The tank interior is coated with a thick film coating to protect the system for years to come. The tank exterior is coated with a custom weather resistant coating chosen by the architect. This BreakTank™ also features a high/low level monitoring alarm to alert the risk of insufficient water or an overflow situation. The high-level alarm is tied into the building automation system.
