our glass-fused-to-steel tanks offer:
Lowest maintenance requirements over the life of the tank
Lowest total life cycle cost
Safe, top-down construction
Faster construction, short lead time
Pre-engineered allowing for future vertical expansion
Relocatable / Expandable
Can be constructed in remote areas and on small footprints
Versatile tank designs, options and accessories
Cost effective
Factory coating eliminates weather delays and variables affecting the quality of field applied coatings
A unique warranty – our tanks carry a guarantee on the tank’s performance. It is one more indication that glass-fused-to-steel tanks are designed for lasting service.
Glass-Fused-To-Steel Coating
The factory-applied silica glass coating on our tanks form a hard, inert barrier for both the interior and exterior of the surfaces of the tank. It protects the steel core against weather and corrosion. The tank panel edges are protected by a barrier coating so that the entire steel panel is encapsulated in a glass shell.
Florida and Texas Aquastore tanks offer consistent corrosion protection. The glass coating provides a water-resistant interior and a graffiti-resistant exterior. The physical properties of the tanks glass coating are uniquely suited to municipal/industrial liquid storage applications.
Our tanks are available in diameters from 11 feet (3.3m) to 204 feet (62.2m) and capacity from 20,000 gallons (75 cu m) to over 7 million gallons (26,500 cu m). Tank sheets are shipped on protective skids with crated hardware and accessories. At the job sites, tanks are installed by our certified crews using specialized equipment. The tanks are assembled from the top down with a jacking system that progressively elevates the structure. The bolted construction enables rapid, logical progress for a timely completion even in weather that would routinely delay concrete or welded construction.
Quality control
We offer the highest quality glass-fused-to-steel water storage tanks on the market today. Utilizing an IS0 9001:2015 quality control system, we ensure guaranteed repeatable quality. We can provide tanks for a wide range of standards including AWWA D103 Standard for Bolted Steel Water Storage Tanks, AISC, FM codes and NFPA Standard 22. Every sheet is tested to ensure that they are holiday free before shipment and again during the installation. Our 2,500+ installations with municipalities and global leading companies are a testament to the strict quality control measures implemented during manufacturing and construction.

Florida and Texas Aquastore supply and install clear-span geodesic aluminum domes on our tanks. Installation is provided for both ground or elevated tanks, other types of new or existing tanks, as well as concrete and earthen reservoirs.
Clear-span aluminum geodesic domes are self-supporting, lightweight, and strong. Built to industry design standards they can withstand high snow loads, wind loads, extreme temperatures, and attached equipment loads. The domes can be supplied with manways, walkways, dormers, skylights, vents, equipment access hatches, pipe sleeves, nozzles, and insulation. They can be anodized or coated to meet architectural considerations
experience matters
Throughout our 40 year + history and 2,500+ installations we know what works and more importantly where issues may arise.
