The Bushman 2700 Gallon Vertical Water Storage Tank in black is a large-volume, above-ground polyethylene tank built for bulk water: rainwater and reuse aggregation, agricultural supply, and rural fire-water reservoir duty. It holds 2,700 gallons on a square 102 x 102 inch footprint and stands 89 inches tall, so it stores serious volume without a tall, tippy profile - useful where overhead clearance is limited but pad space is available. The black exterior blocks light through the wall, which suppresses algae growth in stored water far better than a translucent tank.
Will it work for your site?
Size the tank to the job before you buy. At full capacity this tank carries 2,700 gallons, and water is heavy: a full 2,700-gallon tank weighs about 22,518 pounds. That load has to land on a properly engineered, level pad - not bare soil, gravel, or timbers. Run your numbers through our Tank Sizing Calculator and read the Tank Sizing Guide to confirm 2,700 gallons matches your draw and refill cycle. If this feeds a rural or remote fire-protection system, our guide on fire-water reservoir tank design and NFPA 22 sizing walks the discipline. For grey-water, rainwater, and HVAC condensate aggregation, see our water-reuse tank topology guide. Confirm fitting locations and outlet sizes against the technical drawing on this page before you plumb.
The pad is the mistake to avoid
The single most common failure on a vertical storage tank this size is an under-built foundation. More than eleven tons of water sitting on a pad that settles unevenly will stress the tank shell and its fittings. Build to spec - our concrete pad sizing guide (ACI 360R-10) covers the framework - and after install, prove the system with a proper hydrostatic acceptance test to catch pad settlement and fitting leaks before the tank goes into service.
