The Enduraplas TC1500IW-GREEN is a 1,500-gallon vertical polyethylene water storage tank built for above-ground bulk holding, standing 126 inches tall on a 64 x 64 inch footprint. It is the tank people search for as a 1500 gallon vertical water tank, a poly water storage tank, or a green above-ground bulk water tank, and it does one job cleanly: hold a large volume of non-pressurized water in a compact vertical column. The green shell cuts light penetration to slow algae growth, which matters for stored water that sits between uses.
Will it work for your site?
Start with the load. Filled to capacity, this tank carries 12,510 pounds of water, and that number decides your pad and your placement, not the empty tank weight. The 64 x 64 inch footprint concentrates that weight onto a small area, so a level, engineered pad is not optional at this size. Before you pour, work through our concrete pad sizing framework so the base is rated for the full 12,510-pound service load. If you are still confirming whether 1,500 gallons is the right volume for your draw rate or reserve, the Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide will size it against your actual demand. For the outlet locations, fitting sizes, and the exact dimensional layout, see the technical drawing on this page.
Common applications
A vertical tank this size fits non-potable bulk holding, irrigation supply, rainwater and reuse capture, and rural fire-water reserve. If you are storing for private fire protection, the reserve volume math has its own discipline; our fire-water reservoir design guide covers NFPA 22 sizing and cold-climate freeze protection. For grey-water, rainwater, or HVAC condensate aggregation, our water reuse topology guide maps where this tank sits in a treatment train.
The mistake to avoid
This is a water storage tank. Before you put anything heavier than water in it, confirm the tank is rated for that liquid's specific gravity; heavier-than-water chemical service needs a tank rated for it, not a general water tank. And do not commission the tank the same day it is set: a tank this size needs a hydrostatic acceptance step. Fill it, hold it, and watch the pad settle and the fittings for leaks before you put it into service. Skipping that hold time is how a small pad problem becomes a 12,510-pound problem. Our hydrostatic test methodology walks the fill discipline and hold-time math.
