The 1700 Gallon Plastic Vertical Water Storage Tank in Blue (SKU TC8674IW-BLUE) is an Enduraplas vertical bulk-water tank built for above-ground water storage. It holds 1,700 gallons in an 86 x 86 inch footprint and stands 74 inches tall, so it clears most standard ceiling and overhead heights while still banking a serious volume of water. The blue exterior cuts light penetration to slow algae growth in stored water.
Will it work for your site?
This is a vertical storage tank sized for bulk water reserve: rural fire-water reservoirs, rainwater and industrial water-reuse aggregation, farm and irrigation supply, and general water draw-down. Filled to capacity, 1,700 gallons of water weighs 14,178 pounds, and that full-weight load sits entirely on the 86 x 86 inch base, so size the pad for the loaded weight, not the empty tank. If you are matching this tank to a demand profile, our Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide walk through draw-down and reserve math. Confirm the dimensions on this page and the technical drawing before you finalize plumbing runs, and confirm your outlet and fitting configuration with us at quote time.
The mistake to avoid
The one that stops projects is the foundation. A tank this size needs a level, fully supporting base rated for the full loaded weight of 14,178 pounds — an under-built or out-of-level pad will stress the tank wall and shorten its life. Our guide on concrete pad sizing for above-ground polyethylene tanks covers the ACI framework, and once installed, the hydrostatic test methodology guide shows how to prove out pad settlement and fitting seals with a controlled water fill before you put the tank into service.
Built for real water duty
For rural and remote fire protection, this tank slots into the private fire-protection stack as an NFPA 22 reservoir — see our fire-water reservoir design guide for sizing discipline and freeze protection. For grey-water, rainwater, and HVAC condensate capture, the industrial water-reuse topology guide shows how vertical poly tanks like this one anchor a quality-banded storage train.
