The Bushman 100 Gallon Water Storage Tank (WW-100-GL) is a vertical polyethylene tank built for general water storage where a compact footprint matters more than sheer volume. It holds a nominal 100 gallons in a 47-inch-tall body that sits on a 47 x 47 inch base, so it fits into utility rooms, pump houses, equipment sheds, and outdoor pads without demanding a large slab. Dimensions on this listing are verified, which means you can plan clearances, doorways, and pad size against real numbers rather than estimates.
Will it work for your site?
This is a straightforward vertical water tank sized for small-scale storage: rainwater catchment, hauled-water holding, irrigation buffering, pressure-pump feed, or a modest reserve for a cabin or remote structure. Filled to capacity, 100 gallons of water weighs 834 pounds, and the tank concentrates that load onto its 47 x 47 inch footprint. Confirm that whatever supports it, a concrete pad, a compacted gravel bed, or a reinforced platform, can carry the full load evenly across the base. Our pad-sizing guide walks through the ACI framework for above-ground polyethylene tanks. If you are still deciding whether 100 gallons is the right reserve or whether you need to step up, run the numbers with our Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide.
Installation and startup
Set the tank on a level, fully supporting surface before filling; a tank that sits level empty can list once it carries several hundred pounds of water on an uneven base. Use the tank's overall dimensions (47 inches tall on a 47 x 47 inch footprint) when you lay out plumbing and clearances. Fitting sizes and outlet placement are configured per order, so call 866-418-1777 to confirm the bulkhead and outlet spec before you buy. For new installs, a controlled water-fill acceptance test is the cleanest way to confirm the pad has settled and every fitting is dry before the tank goes into service, our hydrostatic test methodology covers water-fill discipline and hold-time math. In cold climates, plan freeze protection for the tank and its lines before winter service.
Freight
This tank ships LTL freight, quoted separately from the list price and priced to your delivery ZIP. Empty the tank ships light; filled it carries 834 pounds of water, which is what your pad and platform must support, so size the delivery and the base together. Use our Freight Cost Estimator for a rate to your address, or call 866-418-1777 and we will handle the quote and answer any sizing or fitting questions before you order.
