SIMULATION TANKS
Benefits of INDOOR Water Simulation Tanks
Our indoor water simulation tanks are the industry solution to year-round access to realistic, clean, repetitive training.
- 24/7 access to clean, filtered, treated water
- Controllable water level, temperature, current, and flow
- Realistic environmental effects like rain, lightning, thunder, sirens
Hyper-realistic EVA Space-Walking simulations
Zero-accident safety record in 6 years of operations
Industry leader in swiftwater and flood rescue simulations
Emergency
INDOOR Training Tanks for SWIFTWATER Rescue Teams
One third of people who die in swiftwater incidents are first responders, and most have never trained on an actual vehicle. Around the world, emergency services personnel are training in creeks and rivers, which carry bacteria and reach dangerous temperatures in the winter.
A safe yet realistic training environment is essential to protecting our flood rescue teams. That’s why Fathom Tanks developed fully controllable and customizable flood rescue simulations for emergency services providers.
Designed by a former Navy EOD Diver, our above-ground water tanks are deep enough to submerge a vehicle and can be heated and controlled for water current. They have been utilized by hundreds of emergency services departments across the world to prepare their teams for flood rescues and obtain NFPA certifications.
FEATURES INCLUDE:
- 24/7 access to clean, filtered, treated water
- Temperature controlled water / heated in colder months
- Controllable water level, temperature, current, and flow
- Environmental effects like rain, lightning, and thunder
- Responding Units – police lights, sirens, helicopter spotlight
- Train with an actual submerged vehicle, train, plane, bus…
- Zero-accident safety record
- Vehicle wreck extraction tool testing
Spend more time training and less time slogging up the side of a dirty creek in the mud. Our tanks are accessible any time of the day or night and can be used all year-round.

Entertainment
Indoor Water Tanks for Film and TV Productions
Whether you need a water location for a single shot or multi-day job involving a full set build, we have options to fit your production needs. Fathom Tanks provide above-ground, climate controlled production sets that allow for easy camera access.
Designed by a former Navy Diver and former film producer who spent more than a decade working in the entertainment industry. Our tanks give you full control over water temperature, current, and flow. They can be rented by the week or purchased and assembled at your preferred location.
From commercial productions to feature films, our water tanks allow you to get the complex underwater shots you need in a safe, controlled environment.
PRODUCTION-SET TANK FEATURES INCLUDE:
- 24/7 access to clean, filtered, treated water
- Controllable water level, current, flow and direction
- Heated water so your actors don’t get cold and tired
- Depths that accommodate a camera crew
- Drain and fill tanks quickly for retakes
- Secured, lockable locations that allow for privacy
- Tall ceilings accommodate jibs, cranes, and drones
- Build interior or exterior sets inside the tank
- Large working platforms allow for large crews

Education
Conduct Water Research Safely and Effectively
Fathom Tanks can be used for a wide range of underwater research projects, from underwater robotics to sub-system physical testing. These above-ground, indoor water tanks can be heated and adjusted for water level, current, flow, and depth.
Colleges and universities across the country have used Fathom Tanks to simulate deep sea environments and other subsurface experiences for research and training purposes.
Fathom water simulation tanks are easy to use and offer a wide range of capabilities.
EDUCATIONAL TANK FEATURES INCLUDE:
- 24/7 access to clean, filtered, treated water
- Controllable water level, current, flow and direction
- Heated water for colder months or colder regions
- Depths that can accommodate a dive team
- Physical environmental effects like rain and wind
- Rapidly drain and fill the tank as needed
- Multiple tank shapes and sizes
- Capable of creating multi-atmosphere tanks

Aerospace
Neutral Buoyancy and EVA Training
Fathom’s underwater tanks can be modified to simulate a zero-gravity environment for astronaut training. Our above-ground, cylindrical neutral buoyancy tanks are able to attach replicate spacecraft for added realism for extravehicular activities (space-walking).
Our tanks can be used to help military and private aerospace companies develop flight procedures, conduct research, and prepare for space missions in a safe, controlled environment without having to ask the government for permission to access their facilities.
Designed by a former Navy EOD Diver, our dive simulation tanks are climate controlled, easy to use, and have a zero-accident safety record. The US space training program is entirely based on the US Navy Dive Manual, so we knew exactly what to build and how to provide the results you require.
FEATURES INCLUDE:
-
- 24/7 access to clean, filtered, treated water
- Heated water to provide a continuous 86deg
- Controllable water depth, current, and flow
- Hyper-realistic space simulation features
- Attach spacecraft replicas to the side of tanks
- Above-ground simulation tanks of any size
- Blacked-out walls to better simulate space
- Avoid cranes with walk in and out stairwells
- Large working platforms permit large dive crews
- Scissor lift dive injury victims to ground level
