Oil Tanks

Oil Tank Replacement

At A-Rated Boiler Services, we recognize that your oil storage tank is a vital part of any oil heating system. Ensuring its optimal functionality is essential for the safety and efficiency of your property’s heating. If the tank were to burst or crack it would cause environmental damage and also possible damage to human health and nearby buildings. An oil leak can also be costly.

Signs your Oil Tank Needs Replacing

• Older tanks may need replacing as they are increasingly prone to corrosion, fatigue and problems. We recommend carefully inspecting any tanks over 10 years old and replacing with a new oil tank as necessary.
  
• Tank Corrosion and Rust on the exterior of your metal oil tank. Some surface wear would be expected with age, however pitting, flaking and rust suggest advanced degradation. Corrosion can perforate the metal, risking cracks, leaks and internal tank failure. At your next oil boiler service, we can inspect for advanced corrosion and can advise if a new oil tank installation is the safest choice.
  
• Dents or defects are a warning sign to investigate further or consider replacement. External surface damage such as dents, gouges and scrapes can compromise the structural stability of a metal or plastic tank over time. Vehicles, fallen debris and similar heavy duty impacts can warp the tank shell causing fractures and indentations potentially indicating something internal damage to the tank that could affect or disrupt its running.
  
• Leaking oil: a noticable oil sheen on your tank or nearby surfaces can indicate a leak. Slow seeps indicate an escalating problem so should not be ignored. Unaddressed leaks can pose a serious environmental risk and result in large cleanup costs and damage to the tank’s foundations and surrounding area.
  
• Outdated tank models: single-skinned oil tanks may still work but these tanks are more likely to need replacing sooner than double-skinned tanks. New tank installations are reinforced for additional safety. Upgrading to a new model is strongly recommended.
