The Enduraplas 1100 Gallon Beige Vertical Water Storage Tank is a polyethylene vertical tank built for bulk water storage on farms, jobsites, fire-protection reservoirs, and rural water systems. It holds 1,100 gallons full-to-brim, stands 97 inches tall (8 ft 1 in) on a round 60-inch (5 ft) diameter base, and carries a 1.1 specific gravity rating, so it handles water and water-based liquids up to about 9.2 lb per gallon - roughly 10 percent denser than plain water.
Will it work for your site?
The base is a round 60-inch (5 ft) diameter, so pour a level pad at least 5 ft square and plan vertical clearance for the full 97-inch height plus access to the top lid and fittings at roughly 8 ft. Filled with water this tank weighs about 9,174 pounds, and it is rated to carry contents up to 10,091 pounds, which is exactly that 1.1 SG headroom (9,174 x 1.1 = 10,091). That static load is what the foundation underneath has to be engineered for. Keep in mind the 1,100-gallon figure is full-to-brim; real fill stops below the top fitting, so usable volume runs a little under rating. If you are sizing for a specific daily demand and reserve, the Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide walk you through the math before you commit to a capacity.
Setting it up correctly
A full vertical tank concentrates almost five tons onto a 5-foot circle, so the foundation is the part people get wrong. Set it on a level, fully supporting pad sized for the load - our guide on concrete pad sizing for above-ground polyethylene tanks walks through the ACI 360R-10 framework and where the ACI 318 boundary kicks in. After install, fill and prove the tank before you put it into service; the hydrostatic test methodology guide covers water-fill discipline, pad-settlement monitoring, fitting leak detection, and hold-time math so you catch a problem before it becomes a flood. This listing does not publish the inlet, outlet, bulkhead, and lid sizes, so confirm the exact fitting configuration and gasket materials by phone at 866-418-1777 before you order valves and bulkhead fittings.
Common-use water applications
This size is a workhorse for rural and remote fire-water reserves, irrigation supply, non-potable haul-and-store, and water-reuse trains. For private fire-protection planning, see our fire-water reservoir tank design guide for NFPA 22 sizing discipline and cold-climate freeze protection. If you are aggregating grey-water, rainwater, or HVAC condensate, the industrial water reuse tank topology guide maps quality-banded storage trains and treatment-stage sequencing.
