The Norwesco 2000 gallon dark green vertical water storage tank is a polyethylene tank built for bulk water service - rural fire-water reserve, irrigation, rainwater collection, and grey-water or HVAC condensate aggregation. It holds 2,000 gallons on a 90 by 90 inch footprint, so it banks serious volume while still fitting a defined pad envelope. The dark green color cuts light penetration to slow algae growth in outdoor installs, which makes it a workable vertical storage tank for water you intend to keep clean over time.
Will this tank do the job?
This is a 1.0 specific gravity tank, rated for water and water-weight liquids at up to 8.34 pounds per gallon. Filled to capacity, the contents weigh 16,680 pounds, which is also the maximum rated contents weight - so the foundation is the real engineering decision here, not the tank. That much load concentrated on a 90 by 90 inch base has to land on a level, fully supporting pad. Pull the true outside diameter and overall height from the technical drawing on this page rather than inferring them from the footprint, and read our concrete pad sizing guide for the ACI 360R-10 framework before you pour. If you are still confirming which capacity matches your draw and refill cycle, run the numbers in our Tank Sizing Calculator and check the Tank Sizing Guide. Outlet, fill, and lid configuration follow the technical drawing on this page - confirm those tie-in points before you finalize plumbing and overflow runs.
How this size fits the job
Two thousand gallons is a common pivot point for vertical storage tank duty: large enough to serve as a meaningful private fire-water reservoir or industrial water-reuse buffer, but still a single movable vessel rather than a multi-tank train. Whether you are banking a fire-water reserve, staging rainwater and HVAC condensate for reuse, or weighing this Norwesco against other brands at the same capacity, our use-case writeups cover the tradeoffs - start with the Snyder vs Norwesco vs Chem-Tainer 2000 gallon comparison if brand is your open question.
The mistake to avoid
This tank is rated to 1.0 specific gravity - it is a water tank. Do not use it for chemicals or any liquid heavier than water; a denser fluid exceeds the wall's design load, and a vessel rated for water service should not be repurposed for chemical storage. Confirm your stored liquid is water or water-equivalent before filling. The other common miss is treating the 90 by 90 footprint as final clearance - verify the as-built outside diameter and overall height from the technical drawing so your pad, anchoring, and overhead clearance all fit the real envelope.
