The Enduraplas 1350 Gallon Beige Vertical Water Storage Tank is a polyethylene vertical tank built for bulk water service, standing 71 inches tall on an 85-inch-diameter footprint. It holds a nominal 1,350 gallons and carries a 1.1 specific gravity rating, which gives you usable headroom for water and water-based fluids slightly heavier than plain water. With its diameter wider than its height, this is a squat, low-center-of-gravity tank that stays stable on a level pad and tucks under lower-clearance roofs and structures where headroom is tight. The beige color limits light penetration to slow algae growth in stored water. This is a vertical water storage tank for rural fire reserve, agricultural supply, rainwater capture, and general bulk water storage.
Will it work for my site?
Plan the foundation around full-load weight, not the empty shell. Filled with plain water this tank carries roughly 11,259 pounds, and at its maximum rated contents weight it reaches about 12,385 pounds. That ~1,126-pound gap is the concrete value of the 1.1 specific gravity rating: it is the usable margin for water-based contents slightly denser than water. Either way the pad has to carry well over five tons concentrated inside the tank's ~85-inch footprint circle, so size and pour the slab before delivery and have it cured and level on arrival day. Our Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide help you confirm 1,350 gallons matches your draw and refill cycle, and the concrete pad sizing guide walks through the ACI 360R-10 framework for an above-ground poly tank of this weight.
The mistake to avoid
The most common error on a tank this size is filling it on an unprepared base. A vertical poly tank needs continuous, level, full-bottom support; gaps, gravel high spots, or a settling pad concentrate stress on the floor knuckle and shorten the tank's life. Run a controlled first fill and watch for pad settlement and fitting leaks rather than trusting the install blind. The hydrostatic test methodology guide covers the water-fill discipline and hold-time math for new-install acceptance. Respect the 1.1 specific gravity rating, too: this tank is built for water and water-based contents up to that density, so do not press it into heavier chemical service it was not designed for.
Fittings and common uses
Fitting and gasket sizes are not yet specified for this listing, so confirm inlet, outlet, and bulkhead positions and sizes against the technical drawing on this page or by phone before you plumb anything; do not assume a standard fitting set ships with it. As for application, at 1,350 gallons this size fits private fire-protection reserves, where the fire-water reservoir design guide covers NFPA 22 sizing and cold-climate freeze protection. It also suits water-reuse and water-storage trains; the water reuse tank topology guide shows how grey-water, rainwater, and HVAC condensate aggregate into quality-banded storage.
