Somewhere I read on here about a company around Midland or Odessa TX that sold Cistern Liner Material really reasonably priced. I have looked everywhere for that post and can't find it. Anyone know of this company?

Darn, I had been going through old threads and booked marked that one for interesting cistern ideas. Saw your thread and figured that would be a likely thread where what your looking for would be mentioned.

I hope someone can point you in the right direction. I know the frustration of knowing something is out there but not being able to find it.

Should be the same as ponds. Add some copper to the tank. Line a piece of copper sheeting around the top perimeter of the cistern or lid area. Hide it well between outside the liner and how you seal the top. When it's touching the water, thats a old school way of killing bacteria.
