Highland Tank has decades of experience in designing and fabricating storage tanks and ASME pressure vessels for mission critical facilities. Continuous and uninterrupted power is the lifeblood of any type of mission critical facility.
Our team of experienced engineers and fabricators is dedicated to supplying a variety of tank products and systems to ensure that critical infrastructure can maintain operations.
Emergency water storage may be required if municipal water is not available, like during natural disasters, pandemics, and crisis situations. Preparation, planning, and implementation for an uninterruptible water supply is critical.
Hospitals and acute care facilities are required to develop effective Emergency Water Supply Plans (EWSP). This standard outlines facilities’ need for water for consumption, essential care activities, equipment, and sanitary purposes.
Highland Tank’s potable and non-potable water storage tanks are an effective and economical way to store water for commercial, institutional, and industrial applications. Highland Tank’s Emergency Water Supply systems can provide safe and secure water supplies for these facilities to maintain operations during emergencies.
Highland Tank Make-up Water Tanks are a critical part of hydronic systems. Make-up water tanks store water to replenish the water lost in systems such as boilers, cooling towers, or other hydronic systems. These systems lose water to evaporation, blowdown, leaks, or other withdrawal processes.
Thermal Energy Storage systems are engineered process tanks or vessels that add heat or remove heat from a storage medium such as water. These tanks are a key element in delaying the effects of cooling failure due to power loss or catastrophic failure. TES provides a low cost from of storage that can be either a pressurized ASME vessel or atmospheric UL-142 storage tank. The most common chilled water TES tank is a cylindrical, vertical pressurized water storage vessel. Environmental benefits include reduction of source energy use, decreased refrigerant charge, and improved efficiency of the energy supply. Because Highland Tank’s TES tanks are made of steel, non-corrosive PVC diffusers, and minimal, if any VOC coatings, life cycle costs are at a minimum.

FIREGUARD® tanks are thermally protected, double-wall steel storage tanks and are the best alternative for safe storage of motor fuels and other flammable and combustible liquids aboveground. They are used where a fire-protected tank is needed because of setback limitations or regulatory requirements. Each tank is constructed with a minimum 3” interstice around the inner tank. The interstice is completely filled with a lightweight, monolithic material. This high efficiency insulation protects the inner tank in the unlikely event of a fire or extreme heat. It is porous to allow fluid migration through the interstice to the monitoring point.
Unlike concrete encased tanks, FIREGUARD® tanks’ steel outer wall protects the insulation, eliminating the problem of cracking and spalling concrete. Because of its unique construction, each tank is pressure-testable in the factory and at the jobsite. With FIREGUARD®, there is no question of compliance with fire codes; the tank is shipped with factory-installed emergency vents on both the primary and the secondary containment tanks for protection if exposed to fire or excessive pressure. All FIREGUARD® tanks carry a 30-year limited warranty
HighGuard is an innovative technology from the nation’s leading producer of underground steel storage tanks. HighGuard combines the structural strength of steel tank construction with the lasting protection of a polyurethane coating to produce a high-quality storage tank second to none. HighGuard is UL-1746 compliant and extremely resistant to surface damage due to impact or abrasion that may occur during transportation and installation. Supplied with standard 10-year warranty.
Diesel-powered generators are widely used for emergency or standby power. These backup systems are designed into the overall electrical system to meet legal requirements as well as economic considerations related to loss of power.
