The 1057 Gallon ThinTank With Strainers is a slim-profile vertical water tank built for placements where a round tank simply will not fit. At 29.53 inches wide, 117.32 inches long, and 77.56 inches tall, it runs flat along a wall, fence line, or the side of a building while still holding 1,057 gallons — the footprint math that makes a ThinTanks tank the practical pick for tight side yards and narrow equipment corridors. It is supplied with strainers and a 1-inch outlet, and at 428 pounds empty, a small crew can position it without a crane. Confirm fitting and gasket compatibility with your plumbing before connecting.
Will it work for my project?
This ThinTank is rated for water service at a specific gravity of 1.0, with a maximum operating temperature of 120 F (48 C). Empty, the tank weighs 428 pounds; filled with water, the total tank-plus-contents load is roughly 8,815 pounds across its 29.53 x 117.32 inch footprint. Plan the base for that full weight, not the empty weight — a level, fully supported surface is required under the entire footprint. Dimensions and layout are shown on the technical drawing on this page, and certification details appear in the specifications listed here. If you are still working out how much storage you actually need before committing to a 1057 gallon tank, run the numbers in our Tank Sizing Calculator or read the Tank Sizing Guide.
The mistake to avoid
The most common error with a slim vertical tank is treating the base like an afterthought. A tank this tall and narrow concentrates nearly 8,815 pounds on a long, thin footprint, so a partially supported or out-of-level pad works the tank walls in ways they were never rated for. Before you pour or place a pad, see our guide on concrete pad sizing for above-ground polyethylene tanks. The second error is chemical duty: this tank is rated at 1.0 specific gravity for water storage. Do not repurpose it for liquids heavier than water — if you need chemical-duty storage, call 866-418-1777 and we will spec the right tank for the liquid.
Rainwater and reuse applications
The slim profile suits rainwater harvesting and water reuse trains where wall-adjacent placement matters. If you are collecting roof runoff, size your first-flush diversion correctly — see our guide on first-flush diverter sizing per the Texas Manual on Rainwater Harvesting. For commercial grey-water and condensate aggregation layouts, our industrial water reuse tank topology guide covers storage-train design in depth. One reuse-specific caution: condensate or process water entering above 120 F (48 C) is outside this tank's temperature rating.
