With this above-ground 1000-gallon propane tank for sale, you can save installation time and costs compared to underground models. The underground tank requires professionals to excavate your lawn. There’s also the risk of “floating,” meaning that the tank could shift under the ground if it’s not completely settled on a sturdy foundation. Above-ground tanks, such as this, stand several inches off the ground and are safer for flooding conditions.
Above-ground propane tank installation and removal
Some homeowners only need propane to fuel their propane gas fireplaces. Others, however, heat their entire homes with clean-burning propane fuel.
Propane stores well are clean-burning and are easy to refill. Simply lift the lid on the propane tank, and check the gauge inside. The best time to call your propane dealer for a refill is when it’s at 20-30 percent full. Propane is odorless, but an odorant is added to it so that it will give off a smell if it’s leaking. If you have questions about the operation of your appliance or gas systems, contact your local gas dealer. Never allow your gas container to be filled above the maximum safe level. A regulator is required for use to reduce the pressure of the tank to the working, usable pressure.

1,000 Gallon Propane Tank (Horizontal)
Once you’ve made the wise decision to turn to propane to power some or all of your appliances, such as your furnace, endless hot water heater, and an alternate heat source such as a stove or fireplace, you’re going to need a place to store that gas.
How to Figure Out What Size Propane Tank
Uses
Say you live in a 3,000-square-foot home and rely on propane gas to heat your home and power a backup generator in case of power loss. You’re also using propane for a gas fireplace, your tankless water heater system, and a pool heater. And, you also have a gas line attached to your outdoor grill that uses propane gas to fire up that grill for barbecues or family outdoor cooking.
That’s a lot of propane to rely on, and it would be recommended that you have a 1,000-gallon horizontal propane tank installed on your property to hold the amount of gas you would need over a one-month period.
You might also be a business owner who has decided to utilize propane as your main energy source. Chances are the 1,000-gallon storage tank will work best for you as well, as this size tank is recommended for commercial cleaning appliances, commercial cooking needs, commercial heating, and even crop drying equipment.
Recommended Locations
Just where would you install a propane tank of this size? For a 1,000-gallon horizontal propane tank, it is recommended that it be installed at least ten feet from the home or commercial building. These tanks can be installed above or underground.
1000 Gallon Bulk ground propane tank
This tank is for high-end users. This includes large houses, houses with heated pools, restaurants, resale outlets, etc. Installation requirements include being at least 25′ from any important building.
If you choose to have your storage tank installed below ground for aesthetic purposes, it is highly recommended that you rely on professionals like those available from Diversified Energy. These professionals have knowledge about proper codes and safety requirements that you or an unlicensed contractor might be unfamiliar with.
Both above- and underground propane storage tanks should be installed away from any vehicular traffic; underground tanks should not be installed beneath driveways or outdoor buildings such as a garage or shed.
Offering Both Horizontal and Vertical
Diversified Energy offers all of the tank sizes listed earlier on this page; however, only the 120-gallon propane storage tank is offered in horizontal and vertical configurations. Diversified sells the 1,000-gallon propane storage tank only in the horizontal configuration.
Vertical 1,000-gallon propane tanks are less common than horizontal ones. The horizontal shape allows for high-capacity storage with low visibility when installed above ground; if a 1,000-gallon tank is vertical, it would be harder to install inconspicuously behind shrubs or hedges as you can with a vertical 120-gallon tank. Many homeowners and business owners prefer tanks to be installed in such a way as to be discreet; when the underground option is not available, you can opt for a vertical tank that can be placed behind shrubs, fences, or outbuildings.
For installation purposes, a vertical 1,000-gallon propane storage tank would simply require too much excavation to place underground; the horizontal shape makes it easier to install it underground and leave the tank dome visible for filling purposes.
