Snyder Industries 750 Gallon Plastic Vertical Water Storage Tank in Green

Planning a narrow, tall tank

Because it is more than twice as tall as it is wide, the 32519 needs two things: a level, solid base for the 6,255 pounds it carries when full, and a strap or a bracket so an empty tank does not walk in the wind. The base is a slab or a compacted pad, sized by the method in the concrete pad sizing guide. If you are deciding between this size and the next one up, the tank sizing calculator turns your daily draw into gallons before you order.

Choosing among the small Snyder verticals

Color is the only difference between the 32519 and the 32517; the mold, the fittings and the 117 pound weight are shared. The WB34 is the choice when 106 inches will not clear the eave: 29 inches shorter, 200 gallons less, and heavier at 140 pounds because its wall is thicker. The 32523 is the choice when a wider base is available: 60 inches across, 89 inches tall, 1,000 gallons.

Where the pipe goes

• Inlet: 1-1/2 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead fitting.
• Outlet: 2 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead fitting, low on the sidewall.
• Access: 20 inch threaded, vented manway.
• Service limit: 120 F / 48 C.

Color changes nothing structural here. Green and black are the same resin with a different pigment, and both keep sunlight out of the water, which is what stops algae; the choice is whether you want the tank to vanish against planting or to read as equipment. Either way, strap a tank this tall to something solid if it stands outside. Green resin is as opaque as black, so a gauge is worth having; the level gauge selection guide covers the options from a sight tube to an ultrasonic sender on the 20 inch manway.

The work it does

This is the rain barrel's grown-up replacement: a downspout cistern that actually carries a garden through August. The tank sizing guide shows what 750 gallons is worth at a given draw, and the industrial water reuse tank topology article shows how several of them become a reuse system. It also serves as the buffer tank on a slow well, where the 2 inch outlet feeds a booster pump without starving it, and, in multiples, as the beginning of a rural fire reserve of the kind the fire-water reservoir design guide describes.

Freight, in plain terms

The 32519 ships palletized as standard LTL freight (NMFC 156600-02), not oversize, so the rate is a class rate and modest; see it for your ZIP in the freight cost estimator. The listed price is before freight. Two people carry the 117 pound tank to its pad. On first fill, follow the staged water test in the hydrostatic test methodology guide and check the two bulkhead fittings before you trust it.
