Description
At this size the tank stops being a household fixture and starts being infrastructure, with the delivery economics that come with it.
Specified for estates, farms, workshops and hospitality sites with a genuinely commercial gas demand.
Filled to the 80% limit this vessel holds about 800 gallons of propane — roughly 73 million BTU, or about 3,392 lb of product. Against a steady 100,000 BTU/hr load that is roughly 30 days of continuous running before it needs refilling.
In our range it sits between the 500 gallon and the 1,150 gallon. If the load is borderline, the 1,150 is the safer buy and the freight is the same either way.

Siting and installation
It needs a level, stable base and code clearances from buildings, boundaries and sources of ignition. Beyond that, an above-ground installation is as simple as propane storage gets.
Setting and commissioning must be done by a licensed propane professional in line with NFPA 58 and local code. Ask us if you need a name in your area.
What you receive
Whether new or certified used, nothing ships without a live stamp, a passed pressure test and the documentation to prove both.
Every fitting is checked against the vessel’s specification, and the relief valve date is confirmed before dispatch.
Cost of ownership
Larger vessels are cheaper to fill per gallon because suppliers price on delivery efficiency. A part-load top-up costs more per gallon than a bulk fill, every time.
Worth knowing before you buy
Check your local clearances before ordering. Setback distances from buildings, boundaries and ignition sources are set by code and they decide where — and sometimes whether — a given capacity can go.
Ask what the regulator and first-stage arrangement will be. The tank is only half the specification, and the wrong regulator will starve appliances the vessel could easily supply.
