The Enduraplas 1200 Gallon Vertical Water Storage Tank (SKU 32529) in black is a polyethylene bulk storage tank built for bulk water holding, well-water buffering, rainwater capture, and general water-reserve duty. It carries 1,200 gallons in a low-profile stance: 86 inches across the base by 57 inches tall. That squat, wide footprint is intentional, not a typo, and it keeps the loaded center of gravity low and reduces the overhead clearance you need under a roof, awning, or low structure. If you are cross-shopping listings, this is the tank people find under searches for a 1200 gallon vertical water tank, a black poly water storage tank, and an Enduraplas bulk water tank.
Will it work for your site
Match the volume to your actual draw before you buy. Filled to the brim with water, this tank weighs roughly 10,008 pounds (1,200 gallons at about 8.34 lb per gallon), so the pad or slab under it has to carry that load across the full 86 by 86 inch base without settling. Run your numbers through the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide so the tank you order matches demand, not a round number. Because this is a water-service tank, confirm the fitting layout on the technical drawing on this page matches your inlet, outlet, and vent plan before you install, and verify the sizes against your own plumbing. The black exterior blocks light, which discourages algae growth in stored water compared with translucent tanks.
Set it up right
The most common install mistake is skipping the pad. A 10,008-pound loaded tank needs a level, continuous, load-rated foundation, and poly tanks are unforgiving of point loads and uneven bearing. See Concrete Pad Sizing for Above-Ground Polyethylene Tanks for the framework, then verify the install with a proper hydrostatic test before you put it into service. Planning fire-reserve or reuse-water storage? The NFPA 22 reservoir guide and the water-reuse topology guide cover the design details for those layouts.
