The Snyder Industries 750 Gallon Vertical Water Storage Tank in green is a polyethylene vertical water tank built for bulk water and reuse storage where you need real capacity in a compact 48-inch round footprint. It stands 106 inches tall on a 48 x 48 inch base, holds 750 gallons, and carries a 1.0 specific gravity rating - meaning it is engineered for water and water-density liquids, not heavier chemicals. For an outdoor pad, shed corner, or rural water storage point, this is one of the most space-efficient ways to bank 750 gallons of water in a single vertical storage tank.
Will it work for your install?
Filled to capacity, this tank carries 6,255 pounds of water - that is your full water weight and the maximum rated contents weight, since the 1.0 SG rating is matched to water. Plan your pad and base support around that number, not the empty tank weight. Spread across the 48 x 48 inch footprint (16 square feet), a full tank puts roughly 390 pounds per square foot on the slab under the tank floor - that is the bearing number your concrete-pad design should be built to, with no point loads under the floor. Our concrete pad sizing guide walks through the ACI framework for sizing that slab correctly. One more useful number: 750 gallons over 106 inches of height is about 7 gallons per vertical inch, so you can read level off the sidewall and size your draw-down accordingly. If you are still deciding whether 750 gallons is the right volume for your draw rate or storage days, run the numbers through our Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide before you commit.
The mistake to avoid
The most common error on a water tank like this one is overestimating what the 1.0 specific gravity rating allows. This Snyder tank is rated for liquids at the density of water. Storing anything heavier - a brine, a fertilizer blend, or a chemical with a specific gravity above 1.0 - puts wall stress beyond what this tank is rated to carry. If your liquid is heavier than water (brine, fertilizer, or chemical, SG above 1.0), this tank is not rated for it - call 866-418-1777 and we will match you to a higher specific-gravity tank built for that density. If your application is strictly water (water storage, rainwater, fire reserve, HVAC condensate, or grey-water reuse), this tank is matched to the job. For applications that band water by quality before reuse, our guide on industrial water reuse tank topology covers how to sequence storage trains, and for rural fire-protection duty the fire-water reservoir design guide covers NFPA 22 sizing discipline.
Fittings and commissioning the new tank
Fitting and outlet configuration is shown on the technical drawing on this page; confirm bulkhead size and gasket material against your plumbing before you order, or call 866-418-1777 to verify. Before you put a new install into service, a hydrostatic test confirms the tank and pad are sound under full load. Fill with water, watch for leaks and pad settlement, and hold long enough to trust the result - our hydrostatic test methodology guide gives the fill discipline and hold-time math.
