The Foundation for Every Reliable Water Softener System

As a system installer, OEM, or distributor, you know that the tank is the heart of any water treatment system. You need a product that is 100% reliable, installs easily, and is compatible with the valves you trust. This is that product.

The Stark Water 2.5" NPSM Series is the industry's workhorse, precision-engineered to serve as the foundation for residential and light commercial water softeners, media filters, and carbon filters. We designed this series specifically for professionals who demand quality and consistency.

Why Professionals Choose Our 2.5" NPSM Tanks

Your reputation is built on the systems you install. Here is why our tanks are the preferred choice for B2B professionals:

  • Perfect Valve Compatibility (The 2.5" Standard)
    The most critical component is the connection. Our precision-molded 2.5" NPSM threaded opening provides a perfect, leak-proof seal with all major control valves, including Clack, Fleck, and Runxin. This precision manufacturing prevents costly cross-threading and saves you time on installation.
  • 100% Corrosion-Proof Construction
    Forget rust. Our tanks feature a one-piece, seamless high-density polyethylene (HDPE) inner liner. This food-grade liner is then wound with high-strength fiberglass and sealed with epoxy resin. The result? A tank that is 100% corrosion-proof and waterproof, ensuring a long, maintenance-free life.
  • Engineered for Unmatched Durability & Trust
    Your customers trust you. You can trust our tanks. Every tank:

    • Is rated for 150 PSI (10 bar) operating pressure.
    • Has passed rigorous 300,000+ cycle testing without failure.
    • Is 100% factory pressure-tested before shipping.
  • Lightweight & Easy to Install
    Unlike heavy, rust-prone steel tanks, our composite tanks are lightweight and easy for a single technician to handle (on most residential sizes). This reduces fatigue, speeds up installation, and lowers your labor costs.

Who is this series for?

This 2.5" series is the ideal choice for:

  • Water Softener Installers & Plumbers
  • Residential & Commercial Water Treatment OEMs

Our 2.5" NPSM FRP tanks are the versatile core of residential and light commercial water treatment. They are engineered for the following specific applications:

1. Residential Water Softening

The definitive solution for hard water. These tanks are sized to hold optimal resin beds for removing calcium and magnesium, protecting home appliances and plumbing from scale buildup.

2. Whole-House Carbon Filtration

Used with activated carbon media to remove chlorine, chloramines, tastes, and odors from municipal water supplies, delivering bottled-quality water from every tap.

3. Well Water Treatment (Iron & Sediment)

Combined with oxidation media (like Birm or Greensand) to remove iron and manganese, or used as multi-media filters to trap sediment and turbidity from well water sources.

4. Light Commercial Applications

Ideal for small restaurants, cafes, and offices requiring dedicated water filtration for beverage machines, ice makers, and boiler feed.
