The Enduraplas 1150 Gallon Vertical Water Storage Tank (SKU TC1150IW-BLACK) is a tall-profile polyethylene bulk water tank built for rural fire-water reserves, non-potable draw-down storage, hauled-water reservoirs, and industrial reuse trains. It stands 156 inches tall on a compact 48 x 48 inch footprint, so it holds a lot of water in a small ground area - the right pick when you have vertical room but limited pad width. Every fact below comes off the tank's own spec sheet and the technical drawing on this page.
Will it work for your site?
This is a 1150-gallon vertical storage tank with a 48 x 48 in footprint standing 156 in tall. Filled to capacity with water it weighs about 9,591 lb (~4.8 tons), so the pad underneath it carries that load over the 48 x 48 in footprint. That load has to land on a properly sized, level foundation - a poured concrete pad is the standard approach for a tank this tall, and our Concrete Pad Sizing for Above-Ground Polyethylene Tanks guide walks the ACI 360R-10 framework for getting it right. Not sure 1150 gallons is the correct volume for your demand cycle? Run the numbers with our Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide before you commit.
Freight - how it ships
A tank this size ships LTL freight, and freight is quoted separately to your delivery ZIP - it is never bundled into the list price. Use the Freight Cost Estimator for a live quote to your ZIP, or call 866-418-1777 and we will confirm the shipping details with you. Because the tank is 156 in tall, confirm your receiving site can offload and stand a fixture that height before it arrives.
The mistake to avoid
The biggest error on a tall vertical tank like this one is under-building the foundation. At about 9,591 lb full, an unlevel or undersized pad lets the tank settle unevenly, which stresses the shell and the fittings. Pour and cure a level pad rated for the load, then prove the install before you rely on it - our Hydrostatic Test Methodology guide covers the water-fill discipline, pad-settlement monitoring, and hold-time math for a clean acceptance. If this tank is going into a rural fire-water reserve or an industrial water-reuse train, our reference articles on NFPA 22 fire-water reservoir design and industrial water-reuse tank topology go deeper on sizing and layout.
Check the technical drawing on this page for fitting layout and exact dimensions, run your delivery ZIP through the Freight Cost Estimator, or call 866-418-1777 to confirm the vertical water storage tank that fits your site.
