FRANKLIN, Tenn. – September 25, 2024

Manchester Tank and Equipment Company is thrilled to announce the launch of its latest innovation in the air industry: the 1000-Gallon Air Receiver. This new product marks a significant advancement in the company's offerings, designed to meet the evolving needs of its customers with enhanced efficiency and quality.

Historically, the 1060-gallon Air Receiver has been a staple in the industry. Manchester Tank has taken a bold step forward by replicating the design of its 1000-gallon horizontal propane tank. This strategic decision enhances quality control and offers several key benefits:

  • Reduced Footprint: The tank’s diameter has been decreased from 48” to 41”, making it more space efficient. This is particularly beneficial in environments where space is limited, facilitating easier installation and better utilization of available space.
  • Simplified Pressure Options: Manchester Tank now offers a single high-pressure option that meets all industry requirements. This simplification streamlines the product line, making it easier for customers to select the right product for their needs.
  • Streamlined Inventory: With just one part number to manage, Manchester Tank can maintain consistent stock levels, ensuring customers always have access to the products they need.

According to Director of Sales for Compressed Air, Fire, & Refrigerants Joe Luthman, “By focusing on quality, service and simplicity, we are confident that this new product will not only strengthen our competitive edge, but also support sustainable growth. We are committed to meeting our customers’ needs with innovative solutions that drive efficiency and value.”

This strategic initiative underscores Manchester Tank's dedication to delivering top-notch products and services, and reaffirms its customer commitment to serve with excellence and innovation.
