The Husky Self-Supporting Frameless Portable Water High-Side Tank is designed for rapid deployment during water shuttle operations, wildland firefighting, helicopter bucket dipping, and emergency water storage. Often referred to as an onion tank or pumpkin tank, this frameless design requires no assembly, allowing a single firefighter to deploy the tank in minutes. The heavy-duty self-rising foam collar automatically raises as the tank fills, making it one of the fastest and easiest portable water storage solutions available.
Ideal for challenging terrain and sloped surfaces, Husky High-Side Tanks are trusted by fire departments and the U.S. Forest Service for reliable water storage during structural and wildland firefighting operations. Each tank includes a durable 30 oz. floor, a storage bag for transport, and a standard 2½" NST female flange. Fire Safety USA offers these tanks in capacities from 500 to 5,000 gallons with multiple liner materials and color options to meet your department's needs.
