The Bushman 2650 Gallon Rainwater Harvesting Tank in Forest Green is a vertical storage tank built for above-ground rainwater collection, with a 102-inch by 102-inch footprint standing 80 inches tall. This page covers whether it fits your site, how it ships, and the one detail that decides whether it works for your plumbing.
Does it fit and hold what you need?
Capacity is 2650 gallons in a 102 x 102-inch footprint at 80 inches of height — dimensions verified against the launch spec. Plan your pad for the loaded weight, not the empty shell: filled with water this tank carries approximately 22,100 pounds. That load needs a level, continuous-bearing base. For above-ground poly tanks, a properly sized concrete pad is the difference between a tank that stands square for years and one that leans; our concrete pad sizing guide walks the ACI 360R-10 framework. If you are still choosing between capacities, run the numbers through the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide.
Fittings and connections
The technical drawing on this page documents a single 1-inch NPT bulkhead fitting. Read that carefully before you order: one bulkhead is what the drawing shows, so a separate overflow, inlet, or vent penetration is not a documented factory port and would be spec'd separately or field-added. A 1-inch NPT bulkhead seals through its gasket, so match the gasket material to the fitting and plan to re-torque the connection after the first fill — poly walls take a set as they load. Confirm the thread size and location against your first-flush diverter, overflow, and distribution plumbing before you set the tank. For catchment systems, first-flush sizing matters as much as tank volume — see first-flush diverter sizing per the Texas Manual on Rainwater Harvesting, and check requirements for your area in Rainwater Harvesting Tank Sizing by State.
The mistake to avoid
This is a rainwater harvesting tank configured for water service, not for chemical storage or high-specific-gravity liquids. Keep it on water and it earns a long, trouble-free life. If your plan includes fire-water reserve, review the reservoir design discipline in our fire-water reservoir design guide before committing, so the tank matches the duty you are buying it for.
