UL 2085 Aboveground Double Wall Cylindrical Fireguard Tanks Feature UL Approved Saddles with a White Urethane Top Coat
Fireguard Tanks are thermally protected, double-wall steel storage tanks designed to provide safe and efficient aboveground storage for motor fuels and other flammable or combustible liquids. Ideal for situations where fire-protected tanks are required due to setback limitations or regulatory standards, Fireguard Tanks offer advanced safety and durability features.
Each tank features an inner steel tank surrounded by a minimum 3-inch interstice filled with a unique lightweight thermal insulation material. This innovative design not only allows Fireguard Tanks to exceed the UL 2-hour fire test but also makes the insulating material 75% lighter than concrete, significantly reducing shipping, installation, and relocation costs.
Fireguard Tanks are compatible with a wide range of motor oils, fuels and chemicals, including biodiesel and ethanol.
Unlike concrete-encased tanks, Fireguard Tanks feature a robust steel outer wall that protects the insulation, eliminating the risks of cracking or spalling concrete. Their unique construction allows for pressure testing both at the factory and onsite, ensuring reliability and compliance with fire codes. Additionally, these tanks are shipped with factory-installed emergency vents on both primary and secondary containment tanks, providing added protection against fire and excessive pressure. Backed by a 30-year limited warranty, Fireguard Tanks deliver unmatched performance, safety, and cost-efficiency, making them a trusted choice for professionals seeking high-quality aboveground storage solutions.

Fireguard; The only tank that meets all of these standards:
- UL 2085 Listed “Protected” Tank
- Impact and Ballistics Protection per UL 2085
- Both the inner and outer steel tanks are built to UL standards
- National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 30 & 30A
- International Fire Code (IFC)
- California Air Resources Board (CARB) Standing Loss Control testing requirements for air emissions
- Steel Tank Institute (STI) Standard F941 for Thermally Insulated Aboveground Storage Tanks
Additional Features:
- Capacity: Fluid storage capacities range up to 15,000 gallons. Please request an estimate for your specified Fireguard Tank capacity.
- Fluid Compatibility: Primary storage tank and secondary containment compatible with a wide range of fuels and chemicals, including biodiesel and ethanol.
- Tank Insulation: The lightweight monolithic thermal insulation material Fireguard uses is a specialized concrete that is part of a patented process resulting in a lighter material weight than concrete alone. The fluid inside the tank is insulated from ambient temperature variations, resulting in reduced vapor emissions and product loss.
- Tank Testing: Primary and secondary tank can be tightness tested on-site with standard economical testing procedures, unlike other designs. In addition, the interstitial space can be monitored for inner tank leak detection.
- Double Wall Tank: An impermeable, crack resistant steel outer tank encloses the concrete encased inner primary tank. Steel outer wall provides added strength and protection from weathering, low cost maintenance and is easily recycled.
