Specifications at a Glance
Every figure below is pulled straight from the live product record for this exact tank — the same data on the product page, so what you read here and what you buy never disagree.
Standards & Materials
- ASTM D1998 — Standard Specification for Polyethylene Upright Storage Tanks. Governs wall-thickness and hydrostatic design for vertical rotomolded poly tanks of this class.
- FDA 21 CFR 177.1520 — Olefin polymers. The food-contact regulation the FDA-grade resin in this tank is compounded to meet.
- Specific gravity rating 1.5 — the tank is engineered for liquids up to 1.5× the density of water (water is about 8.34 lb/gal). Confirm your fluid’s SG before storage.
Installation and Setup Guide
The 100-gallon vertical is a tall, narrow chemical column — more day-supply than the 75 in the same slim 23-inch footprint. It places easily; the priorities are a flat base under the small footprint and a properly matched dosing line.
Site Preparation
Set the tank on a firm, level surface that supports the full 23-inch base — a sealed floor, a rated stand, or compacted gravel. Because the column is 63 inches tall on a narrow base, getting the surface truly flat keeps it from leaning. Place it over a sealed surface or drip tray when storing a concentrate.
Placement and Connections
A foot of working room around the tank is sufficient for service. Plumb the outlet to your pump by the shortest run with chemical-rated flexible tubing, and choose tubing, gaskets, and valves to match the chemistry. On a tall narrow tank the deep column gives you a useful head of pressure at the outlet.
Venting
Fit a lid vent so the slim wall does not dimple inward on a quick draw, and a chemistry-rated vent if the contents off-gas.
Maintenance and Long-Term Care
Watch the seals and chemistry on this dosing column more closely than the rugged shell.
Quarterly Inspection Checklist
- Shell: look through the translucent wall for distortion, paying attention to the lower section under the deepest liquid.
- Seals and outlet: inspect the fitting and inline valves for chemical attack; hand-snug only.
- Plumb and base: confirm the tall column stands straight on a flat base.
- Vent: verify the lid vent is clear.
Cleaning and Chemical Changeover
Flush per the chemical manufacturer's protocol before changeovers and capture the rinsate for disposal. Confirm the incoming chemical against the polyethylene and seals before refilling, and log changeovers to prevent cross-contamination.
UV and Weather Protection
The translucent wall passes some light; shade light-sensitive contents or keep the tank indoors.
Alternatives and Comparisons
The slim 100-gallon vertical is a tall dosing column. The 105-gallon vertical offers nearly the same volume with a 2-inch siphon outlet better suited to faster transfer; a 100-gallon cone-bottom drains completely through its apex for batch work on a stand. For larger day-supply in a wider format, the 150 steps up.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long will the 100 Gallon Vertical Liquid Storage Tank - Natural White (23" x 63") last?
Used within its 1.5 SG and 120 F limits with compatible chemistry, this tank will run past 15 years. The seamless shell has no joint to fail, so seal compatibility and a level base — keeping the tall column plumb — are what govern its life.
What chemicals can I store in this tank?
Its 1.5 specific gravity rating covers agricultural chemicals, fertilizers, and industrial solutions in that density band, and the resin is FDA-compliant for food-grade liquids. Not for fuels, solvents, or flammables. Confirm chemical and seal compatibility on a chart before you fill the tank.
Does this tank come with a warranty?
The tank is warranted by Norwesco against manufacturing defects in normal service, including molding and fitting flaws. It does not cover incompatible chemicals, misuse, or impact. Keep your receipt for any claim.
Can I install this tank underground?
No. This above-ground tank has walls that cannot withstand soil pressure. Pick an underground-rated tank if you need to bury it.
Buying Considerations
Confirm a flat, firm base for the narrow 23-inch footprint, a chemical at or under 1.5 SG compatible with the polyethylene and seals, and spill control for a concentrate. Freight is simple — this tank ships UPS or FedEx ground and typically arrives within 5 to 7 business days.
