The Snyder Industries 1500 Gallon Vertical Water Storage Tank in green is a polyethylene vertical storage tank built for bulk water service on farms, ranches, fire-reserve sites, and industrial reuse trains. It stands 114 inches tall on a 65 x 65 inch footprint, holds 1,500 gallons, and carries a 1.0 specific-gravity rating - matched to water and water-density liquids. The opaque green pigment reduces light transmission to discourage algae growth in stored water.
Will it work for your site?
This vertical tank sets on a 65-inch diameter base, so plan a level pad at least that wide. At 114 inches tall, confirm overhead clearance for fill access and any ladder or level-gauge mounting before you site it - the 65-inch diameter and fitting layout are shown on the technical drawing on this page, which you should also use to confirm overall dimensions and fitting locations before setting the pad. At capacity the tank and its contents reach 12,510 pounds, which is also the maximum rated contents weight since the 1.0 specific-gravity rating is matched to water. Design the pad and any seismic or wind anchoring for that full 12,510-pound load; our concrete pad sizing guide walks through the ACI 360R-10 framework, and the hydrostatic test methodology covers water-fill commissioning.
Sizing it into your system
If you are still choosing a capacity - or want to confirm the density math before you fill - run the numbers with our Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide. For rural fire-protection reserves, our fire-water reservoir design guide walks through NFPA 22 sizing and freeze protection. If you are aggregating grey water, rainwater, or HVAC condensate, our industrial water reuse topology guide covers quality-banded storage trains.
The mistake to avoid
The common error on a tank like this is matching it to the wrong liquid. The 1.0 specific-gravity rating means it is engineered for water-weight contents, so anything denser than water exceeds the design and is the fastest way to shorten the tank's life. For plain water storage at the listed capacity, it is exactly the right tool.
