Horizontal or vertical aboveground fuel tank with containment and fire protection.
Aboveground Fuel Tank
A horizontal or vertical fuel tank with suitable support and foundation, containment, venting, access, corrosion controls and fire protection.
A UL 142 claim requires a valid listing for the exact tank model — a reference to the standard is not itself a listing. Never use a general-purpose water tank for fuel.

Where It’s Used
Frequently Asked Questions
Does an aboveground fuel tank need containment?
Containment (bunding), venting, corrosion controls and fire protection are part of the design, confirmed against the project and authority requirements.
Does citing UL 142 mean the tank is listed?
No — a valid UL 142 listing applies to the exact tank model and is confirmed per product, not by referencing the standard.
