The Norwesco 2000 Gallon Plastic Water Storage Tank (SKU N-41514) is a black vertical storage tank measuring 93 inches in diameter and 80 inches tall, molded in polyethylene for bulk water storage. With a 93 x 93 inch footprint, it holds 2,000 gallons in a single upright cylinder, making it a workhorse for rural water supply, hauled-water reserves, rainwater collection, and fire-protection reservoirs where you need real volume without sprawling across the tank pad.
Will this tank work for your job?
Filled with water, this vertical storage tank carries 16,680 pounds, and it is rated to hold contents up to 18,348 pounds, which corresponds to a specific gravity rating of 1.1. That is about 1,668 pounds of headroom over plain water, which is precisely why this tank suits water and water-like liquids only and is not built for heavy chemical service. The 93-inch diameter and 80-inch height fix the footprint, so confirm your slab, doorway, or transport clearance against those numbers before ordering. If you are weighing this size against a taller or shorter profile, run the numbers through our Tank Sizing Calculator and review the Tank Sizing Guide to match capacity to your draw and refill cycle.
Sizing it into a real water system
A 2,000-gallon vertical tank like this commonly anchors a private water-supply reserve, a remote-site fill point, or a stored fire-water volume. For rural and off-grid fire protection, our guide on fire-water reservoir tank design for rural and remote sites walks through NFPA 22 sizing discipline and freeze-protection considerations for polyethylene tanks in cold climates. If you are aggregating grey water, rainwater, or HVAC condensate, the industrial water reuse tank topology guide covers quality-banded storage and treatment sequencing. For the full rundown on this exact size, see our 2000 Gallon Plastic Water Storage Tank complete buyer's guide. Inlet, outlet, vent and lid sizing are not listed in our spec data for this SKU, so confirm the fitting schedule against the technical drawing on this page, or call 866-418-1777, before you plumb it.
The mistake to avoid
The most common error on a tank this size is the foundation, not the plumbing. At 16,680 pounds full across the 93 x 93 inch footprint (roughly 46 square feet), you are putting about 360 pounds per square foot of standing load on the pad. An unsupported edge or a soft spot will let the tank settle unevenly and stress the wall, so build a continuous, level base rated for the full standing weight before you fill it. Second, respect the 1.1 specific gravity rating: this tank is engineered for water and comparable liquids, so do not put heavier or chemically aggressive contents in it without moving up to a tank rated for that service.
