Re: Support for Additional and Additional 70gal Cold Water Tank

Thanks for the great advice.

I think that I will double up on the 2x4 CLS on all joists and use 75mm hangers.
Will remove plaster and fix sleeve anchors in mortar joint.

Re: Support for Additional and Additional 70gal Cold Water Tank

Thanks for the detailed reply.

One follow up Q

Can you recommend, or point me towards finding the correct size/type/amount of fixings for the end plate to the brick wall on the left.

Was thinking of 6 off these anchors

There are loads of fixings but its hard to find the weight limit for each.
