The Enduraplas 2600 Gallon Dark Green Vertical Water Storage Tank is a polyethylene vertical water tank built for bulk above-ground storage where you need real capacity without pouring a concrete cistern. It holds a true 2,600 gallons, stands 92 inches (about 7.7 ft) tall on a 100-inch round footprint (roughly 8.3 ft diameter), and carries a 1.1 specific gravity rating, so it is sized and rated for water and water-density liquids. The dark green color cuts light penetration to slow algae growth in outdoor service. Among Enduraplas water storage tanks, this is a workhorse vertical storage tank for ranch, fire-reserve, and reuse duty.
Will it work for your site?
Plan around the loaded weight, not the empty shell. Full of water this tank carries roughly 21,684 pounds of contents, while the wall and pad are rated to about 23,852 pounds at the maximum 1.1 specific gravity. That ~2,168-pound gap is real headroom: water service runs comfortably under the ceiling, not at it. The 100 x 100 inch (8.3 ft round) footprint and 92-inch height tell you the diameter your pad needs and the overhead clearance for filling and for the lid. The 1.1 specific gravity rating means it handles water and slightly denser water-based liquids; for anything heavier or chemically aggressive, ask for a 1.5 or 1.9 specific-gravity-rated tank instead. If you are still working out volume versus footprint, run the numbers in the Tank Sizing Calculator and read the Tank Sizing Guide before you commit to a pad size.
Pad, install, and acceptance
A tank this heavy lives or dies on its foundation. The 100-inch round footprint works out to about 37.9 square feet, so the loaded tank puts roughly 630 pounds per square foot of bearing demand on the slab — that is the input the pad design needs. Size the pad to the full footprint and the loaded weight using the ACI 360R-10 concrete pad sizing framework so the slab carries the load without differential settlement. Once it is set, prove the install before you put it into service: the hydrostatic test methodology for new-install acceptance walks through the water-fill discipline, pad settlement monitoring, fitting leak checks, and hold-time math. For fire-protection and reuse duty, the fire-water reservoir design guide and the industrial water reuse topology guide cover sizing discipline, freeze protection, and quality-banded storage trains for vertical storage tanks of this scale.
The mistake to avoid
The 1.1 specific gravity rating is a ceiling, not a suggestion. This vertical storage tank is engineered for water-density service; filling it with a liquid heavier than 1.1 specific gravity overloads the wall and shortens its life. Confirm your liquid's specific gravity against the 1.1 rating before you fill. And confirm the plumbing: fitting and outlet configuration is verified per unit, so call 866-418-1777 to check the bung and outlet layout for your install before you order.
