Dunk Tank Frequently Asked Questions

How much water does the tank require?

The tank requires 500 gallons of water. You should have a water source available at all times, as the tank gets used the water level lowers, you should top it off if necessary.

With a standard garden hose it will take around 1 hour to fill. If you go with a water truck it takes about 5 minutes.
