The Norwesco 200 Gallon Vertical Liquid Storage Tank (part #41516) is a natural white polyethylene tank that stands 72 inches tall on a compact 30-inch diameter (30 x 30 in. footprint), holding 200 gallons. The natural-white wall lets you read the liquid level at a glance, and the upright vertical profile makes this a space-efficient choice where floor area is tight but overhead clearance is available - a true "200 gallon vertical storage tank" rather than a cone-bottom or specialty vessel.
Will this tank work for your job?
This is a 1.5 specific-gravity rated tank, so the wall is built to hold liquids up to 1.5 times the weight of water. Full of plain water (8.34 lb/gal) the contents weigh about 1,668 lb; at the full 1.5 SG rating the tank carries up to roughly 2,502 lb of liquid. That higher rating is the reason to choose this SKU over a lighter 1.0/1.1-rated 200-gallon water tank: the same vessel handles heavier-than-water solutions, provided you confirm fitting and gasket compatibility first (see the note below). Plan your pad accordingly - the small 30 x 30 in. footprint concentrates that weight on a tight area, so set the tank on a level, fully supporting concrete pad or compacted surface sized to carry the loaded weight. Use the Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide to match this 200-gallon capacity to your daily draw or refill cycle.

Capacity is 200 gallons in a 30-inch diameter by 72-inch tall vertical storage tank from Norwesco, molded in polyethylene in natural white. We do not list a fitting spec for this SKU, so confirm the inlet, outlet, and lid sizes and gasket material against the technical drawing on this page - or call 866-418-1777 - before you finalize your plumbing layout.

One mistake to avoid
The most common error on a tank this tall is underbuilding the base. At 72 inches on a narrow 30-inch footprint, a loaded vertical tank carries significant weight: it must sit on a flat, level, continuous surface that supports the entire bottom. Do not strap a full vertical tank to a partial pad or set it on uneven ground. And because no fitting size is published for this SKU, match your draw-off plumbing to the actual outlet shown on the drawing rather than assuming a size.
