The Enduraplas 1400 Gallon Green Vertical Storage Tank (SKU THV01400G) is a single-walled polyethylene vertical tank built for above-ground bulk water storage. It holds 1,400 gallons on an 80 x 80 inch footprint and stands just 79 inches tall, so the tank is unusually squat for its capacity. That low profile is a real clearance advantage if you are siting it under a roof line, inside a barn bay, or anywhere height is tight, while still banking a serious reserve. The green pigment blocks light to discourage algae growth in stored water, and the molded-in capacity makes it a practical choice for rural water, irrigation supply, fire-protection reservoirs, and general vertical storage on a farm or job site.
Will it work for your site?
This vertical storage tank carries a 1.9 specific gravity rating, which means the wall is engineered to hold contents far heavier than water. For water service that translates into a generous structural margin: full of water the tank and contents weigh about 11,676 pounds, while the structure is rated to hold contents up to 22,184 pounds. In other words, in water duty this tank runs at roughly half its rated load, so a heavier-walled body working well under its limit should give you long, durable service life. Plan the base for the full weight regardless. An 80 x 80 inch footprint concentrates close to six tons onto the pad when the tank is full, so a level, properly sized concrete pad is not optional. Our Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide help you confirm 1,400 gallons matches your draw-down and refill cycle, and the concrete pad sizing guide walks through the ACI 360R-10 framework for supporting a tank this size.
Fittings and configuration
Lay out your inlet, outlet, and overflow plumbing against the technical drawing on this page before you order parts, so your manifold, valves, and bulkhead connections match the port positions and dimensions the tank ships with. If you need the exact fitting and gasket sizes confirmed in writing before you commit, call 866-418-1777 and we will pull them for you rather than have you guess.
Common uses and a mistake to avoid
The most common mistake on a vertical tank this size is reading the 1.9 SG rating as headroom for chemical storage. It is not. That number describes structural capacity, not chemical compatibility. This tank is sold for water service; if you intend to store anything other than water, stop and confirm the resin and seal chemistry with us first rather than assuming the heavy rating clears it. For water reuse, rainwater, or fire-reserve duty this 1,400-gallon size sits in a useful band. If you are designing a private fire-protection supply, the fire-water reservoir design guide covers NFPA 22 sizing and cold-climate freeze protection, and the industrial water reuse topology guide covers folding grey-water, rainwater, and HVAC condensate into banded storage.
This tank ships LTL freight from the Enduraplas plant in Neche, ND, with freight quoted live to your ZIP based on distance and accessorial needs. Because it ships from a single northern-border plant, freight will be a meaningful line item for southern and coastal sites on a tank that weighs close to six tons full, so run your ZIP through our Freight Cost Estimator before you commit, or call 866-418-1777 to confirm sizing, delivery options, and lead time.
