The Enduraplas 2000 Gallon Black Vertical Water Storage Tank is a 2,000-gallon polyethylene vertical tank built for bulk water storage where you need real volume in a compact 90-inch-square footprint. It stands 93 inches tall on a 90 x 90 inch base and carries a 1.1 specific gravity rating. The black resin blocks light to suppress algae growth, which makes it a practical choice for outdoor and long-dwell water storage. If you are sizing a vertical storage tank for a home, ranch, farm, or jobsite water supply, this is the kind of water storage tank that does the work without sprawling across your pad.
Will it work for your site?
The numbers that matter for planning: the tank measures 93 inches high with a 90 x 90 inch footprint, so confirm your slab or pad clears both the square base and the overhead height before delivery. Filled at full capacity, expect about 16,680 lb of water; at the tank's maximum rated contents the load reaches roughly 18,348 lb. That weight has to sit on a level, fully supported foundation, since polyethylene vertical tanks are engineered to bear their load evenly across the entire base, not on a partial pad or uneven ground. The 1.1 specific gravity rating means the tank is built to safely hold contents up to 1.1 times the density of water; for irrigation, fire-reserve, or general water storage, plain water sits well within that rating. If you are still weighing capacity against your daily draw and refill rate, run the numbers through our Tank Sizing Calculator or read the Tank Sizing Guide before you commit to a size.
Specs, fittings, and the technical drawing
Fittings are not pre-configured or listed for this SKU, so the technical drawing on this page is the authoritative source for outlet placement, inlet and overflow locations, and dimensional detail. Plan your plumbing runs against the drawing before the tank arrives, and when you order bulkhead fittings, valves, and gaskets, match them to what the drawing specifies rather than ordering blind. For water service, specify EPDM gaskets rated for water and confirm thread and outlet sizes against the drawing. If anything is unclear, call 866-418-1777 and we will help you confirm outlet, inlet, and overflow placement before you order.
Planning your water system
A 2,000-gallon vertical storage tank often anchors a larger water plan. If you are designing rural or remote fire-water reserve storage, our guide to fire-water reservoir tank design for rural and remote sites walks through NFPA 22 sizing discipline and freeze protection for cold-climate service. If you are capturing and reusing water, the industrial water reuse tank topology guide covers grey-water, rainwater, and condensate aggregation.
The mistake to avoid
The most common error with a tank this size is setting it on an unprepared base. At about 16,680 lb full, this vertical tank needs a level, continuous foundation that supports the entire 90 x 90 inch footprint. A pad that is high in one corner, soft in spots, or smaller than the base will stress the tank wall and shorten its service life. Prep the foundation first, then deliver the tank. Second: order water-service fittings to match the drawing, not a generic guess, so your inlet and outlet land where you actually need them.
