The Enduraplas 3000 Gallon Beige Vertical Water Storage Tank (SKU TLV03000BE) is a polyethylene vertical water tank built for bulk water storage that needs serious capacity without sprawling across your site. It stands 125 inches tall on a 90 x 90 inch base and holds 3,000 gallons of water, rated to a specific gravity of 1.1 so it handles plain water with margin to spare. The beige color is opaque rather than translucent, which limits light penetration into the stored water - a common reason buyers pick it for outdoor bulk water storage, irrigation reserves, and rural water supply.
Will it work for your site?
Run the numbers before you pour a pad. Filled with water this tank carries 25,020 pounds; at its maximum rated contents weight it reaches 27,522 pounds. That load sits on a 90.0 x 90.0 inch footprint, which works out to roughly 490 pounds per square foot at the slab when full - a number you can hand straight to whoever pours the pad. This is not a tank you set on bare dirt. Confirm your inlet, outlet, and overflow plumbing requirements before you order - call 866-418-1777 and we will confirm fitting details for this specific tank. If you are still deciding between sizes, the Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide walk you through matching daily demand and refill rate to capacity so you do not over- or under-buy. You can also cross-check dimensions against the technical drawing on this page.
Pad, install, and acceptance
A vertical water storage tank this size lives or dies on its foundation. Our guide on concrete pad sizing for above-ground polyethylene tanks covers the ACI 360R-10 framework for sizing that slab to the filled weight above. Once it is set, follow the hydrostatic test methodology for new-install acceptance to fill in stages, watch for pad settlement, and confirm every fitting holds before you commit the tank to service. If this is part of a private fire-protection setup, the fire-water reservoir tank design guide covers NFPA 22 sizing discipline and freeze protection for cold-climate service. For reclaimed and aggregated supply, the industrial water reuse tank topology guide shows how a vertical storage tank fits a grey-water or rainwater train.
The mistake to avoid
The 1.1 specific gravity rating is for water service. Do not assume this tank is approved for heavier-than-water liquids - a fluid denser than water pushes past what a 1.1 SG wall is rated to hold, and the failure point is the lower sidewall. Keep this one on water service. Just as important: size your foundation to the loaded weight, not the empty shell, and never skip the pad-settlement check during first fill.
