If you want to get into cooling a reservoir, the cheapest way is to bury the container in the ground or at least partly. If you're looking to cool a outdoor reservoir outside, you simply need to coat the outside of the container with a hydrophyllic material, and have a simple soaking mechanism to saturate the material with water.Then just let evaporation do the cooling. Another way is to have a pipe coil inside your reservoir hooked up to a water tap. Then use a solenoid valve that is triggered by a thermostat. As the water runs through the coil, the tank is cooled. The waste water can be run onto trees or to water the grass. These are all cheap solutions.
