We custom design and manufacture every PolySide® plastic fire water tank to maximize the water you carry to a fire. In addition, the design of the UPF PolySide® incorporates configurations to allow for more equipment on the scene. The sidewalls, of the wetside poly water tank, are its outer walls of the tanker fire truck. Thus, allowing every cubic inch to be dedicated to carrying water. In addition, the tank bolts directly to your subframe. Equipment (e.g. Portable tanks, ladders, suction hoses, etc.) can be integrated into the tank design or mounted directly to the tank sides.
Moreover, another important feature is that UPF’s PolySide fire water tank is fully baffled and complies with NFPA guidelines, an assurance of excellent road handling performance.
The PolySide® fire water tank is lighter and allows you to carry more water than a typical steel tanker fire truck. You can carry up to 2,000 gallons of water on an economical single axle chassis. In addition, you gain the advantage of a non-corrosive tank for your tanker fire truck that will never rust and is covered by the Poly-Tank® warranty.

For normal fire department applications, the tank shall have a limited lifetime warranty that provides warranty service for the life of the fire apparatus where the tank is. Also, warranties are transferable if the apparatus ownership changes by requesting the transfer from UPF. In applications where the tank will be subject to severe conditions, the tank may have a warranty unique to the application that is clearly defined for each such application. Also, you can get a copy of the UPF warranty by e-mailing us at [email protected] or visit the product support page for more information.
