Why replace your domestic heating oil tank?
Changes in Temperature
During the months between Summer ending and Winter starting changes in temperature can greatly affect your Heating Oil tank. The rapid temperature changes cause the tank to shrink and swell which can stretch the tank and make the plastic membrane thinner. This increases the risk of the tank splitting when new loads of Heating Oil are pumped into the tank.
Changes in The Weather
Plastic tanks are susceptible to sun damage. The sun’s rays will heat the top of the tank and cause it to split. This becomes a major problem as the weather changes and rainwater starts to enter the tank and cause damage to the fuel. The other main cause of fuel contamination is water entering the fuel tank through the lid. Moorland Fuels suggests you check the condition of your lid after every fuel delivery.
OFTEC Regulations
Over 400,000 tanks in the UK are still Single Skin. Single Skin means you have no protective bund inside your Heating Oil tank. Simply put, any external damage to the fuel tank will most likely result in a major spill. The effects of this could be astronomical as the fuel could contaminate your land and worse the foundations of your building. Not only can this be a huge financial burden, but can have huge environmental effects too.
If your Heating Oil tank is also out of OFTEC specification this can result in your insurance being voided.

"Excellent and speedy response when I contacted the company regarding water in my oil tank. Within an hour I had confirmation that someone would come out the next morning and sort the problem. Next morning the oil tank was emptied, cleaned and refilled in one and a half hours. Thank you to everyone involved. Great service."

"Moorland Fuels are my choice of supplier for oil. I have used them for over three years and they are always very competitive on price. More importantly they deliver on time, or even earlier, and have never let me down. Also, their staff are very friendly and helpful."
Mrs M Vavrecka

"I ordered 1000l of fuel, after speaking to a pleasant sounding lady called Chloe. The company texted me the evening before my delivery so that I was able to leave my side gate open and a note on the front door, asking the driver to go ahead with the delivery. No problems! When I returned home, the 'Watchman' showed a full 10/10 tank. I'll be using Moorland Fuels next time!"
