When you’re buying fire-rated tanks/ tanks that need to go into buildings or intense climates, insist on SwRI 95-03 certified tanks, why, because you can rest assured that you are purchasing the most durable and resilient tank on the market.

  • THE BENEFITS TO YOU

If the tank is compliant with SwRI 95-03 and there is damage done to the tank, (whether it is fire, impact or other) it can be repaired and re-used. Unlike other tanks which would need to be completely replaced.

  • IS THE SAME TANK TESTED FOR SwRI 95-03?

It sure is! The SwRI 95-03, 4-hour fire test involves an additional 2-hour fire exposure test using the same, fully assembled test tank for all tests.

  • HOW DO I KNOW IF MY TANK IS SwRI 95-03?

If it is a SuperVault tank it will have the Fuelchief SuperVault logo which looks like this:

It will have a stainless-steel certification signage provided by Fuelchief (in silver) and it will have a gold and black plate with a unique number allocated by the Southwest Research Institute for the SuperVault tank.
