150 USG Vertical Water Tank: Key Facts
The 150 USG vertical water tank holds 568 litres (150 US gallons at 3.785 litres each), which makes it one of the smallest vertical tanks in the KHAZAAN plastic range. It stands 93 cm tall on a 92 cm diameter base, so it fits in a utility room, on a balcony, on a small rooftop pad or beside a staff room. It is rotationally moulded from virgin polyethylene with a UV stabiliser, it will not rust, and it carries a 5-year manufacturer's warranty.

150 USG, 568 Litres or 500 Litres: What Is the Difference?
Buyers search for this tank in several ways: 150 USG water tank, 150 gallon water tank, 568 litre water tank and 500 litre water tank. They all point to the same size class. The exact capacity of the KHAZAAN tank is 568 litres. The 500 litre name is a rounded market label, so plan around 568 litres of volume. In practice the working volume is a little lower, because the float valve and overflow set the water level below the brim.
If height is your limit, the 150 USG tank is also made in a horizontal shape with the same 568 litres. See the 150 USG horizontal water tank.
How Long Does 568 Litres Last?
That depends on how many people use the water. Using 175 litres per person per day, the figure in our water tank calculator, a full 150 USG tank lasts as follows.
| Users | Daily use | 568 L lasts |
|---|
| 1 person | 175 L | About 3.2 days |
| 2 people | 350 L | About 1.6 days |
| 3 people | 525 L | About 1.1 days |
| 4 people | 700 L | Under 1 day (0.8) |
Lower use stretches these numbers. For a household of four or more, or anyone who wants two days of reserve, step up to a 400 USG (1,514 L) tank or larger. Our water tank sizes guide and tank capacity guide explain how to choose.
Where the 150 USG Vertical Tank Fits Best
- Studio and one-bedroom apartments that need a small private tank.
- Site offices and small staff rooms with light daily water use.
- Shops, salons and small commercial units with modest demand.
- A backup tank beside a main tank, so a cleaning day or a fault does not cut your supply.
- A garden or landscaping buffer tank feeding a pump or drip system.
- Utility rooms and balconies where a taller or wider tank will not fit.
For a whole villa you will usually want something larger. Browse the full range of vertical water tanks.
Size, Weight and Installation
The base footprint is about 0.66 square metres. Full of water, the contents alone weigh about 568 kg, which is roughly 850 kg per square metre on the base before you add the weight of the tank itself. Place it on a smooth, level concrete base or slab that is rated for that load, and never on soil, loose sand or an uneven surface. On a roof, confirm the structure can carry the load first.
Leave 10 cm of clearance on all sides so the walls and fittings can be reached. Use PVC tank connectors for the 1 inch outlet, drain and overflow, keep the air vent on top clear, and isolate pump vibration if a pump is connected. In direct sun, a shaded position keeps the stored water cooler.
150 USG Vertical or Horizontal?
Both shapes hold 568 litres. Choose the vertical tank when floor space is tight and you have headroom: it stands on a compact 92 cm circle. Choose the horizontal tank when the ceiling, a roof pad or a doorway limits the height, and you can spare a longer footprint. Our guide to vertical vs horizontal water tanks compares the two in detail.

Material, Construction and Warranty
The tank is rotationally moulded in one piece from virgin polyethylene, so there are no welded seams in the walls. The inner surface is food-grade, and the outer layer is UV-stabilised to stand up to UAE sun. Polyethylene does not rust or corrode, so the tank needs no coating. This size is built in 2 layer construction. If you plan to put a tank in full sun on an open roof, compare the options in 3 layer vs 5 layer water tanks and see the full plastic water tank range.
KHAZAAN gives a 5-year manufacturer's warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Keep your invoice with the tank.
Care and Cleaning
Keep the lid closed and the air vent clear so insects and dust stay out. Check the float valve, overflow and connectors from time to time, and drain and clean the tank on a regular schedule. Read our water tank cleaning and maintenance guide, or book our tank cleaning service.
Quick Buying Checklist
Before you order, confirm four things. The slab or roof can carry about 850 kg per square metre under the tank. The space allows a 92 cm circle plus 10 cm clearance on every side, which is about 1.12 m across. The 93 cm height clears any pipework or ceiling above. And 568 litres gives you the days of reserve you want. If any answer is no, look at the horizontal tank or a larger size.
