Horizontal buffer tank

in THE MAIN WALL
Does anyone know of a manufacturer of a horizontal storage/buffer tank? I'm looking for 80-gallon but would take 50gallon if I have to.



Thanks

    Insulated?

    Lochinvar builds horizontal tanks, looks like they start at 118 gallons.



    Buderus and Viessmann have indirects that are horizontal.



    LP tanks, air compressor tanks.

    Insulated

    Ya, Hot Rod, it needs to be insulated. I looked at the Lochinvar earlier today and the 118 is a little too big.

    Thanks though

    What is it?

    Is that a buffer tank or an indirect? I see no name either.

    Thanks

    great call

    Jeff,



    Nice to talk with you this morning.



    So all who read this thread know: We pulled the job-file (installed 7-years ago) & it's a Crown Megastore MSH-40H. The owner decided, at the last minute, that he wanted everything in the crawl space - all the way at the far end of the crawl space - over a few horizontal CI drain lines that were about a foot off the floor!
