Description

Product Summary :
Steel single skin oil tanks are made from 2mm mild steel and are for home heating oil at family homes only. They can only be used where a bunded oil tank is not required, subject to a full site survey by an Oftec registered engineer. If in any doubt please contact Oftec on www.oftec.org or on 0845 65 85 080

Important Information: Single Skin Oil Tanks
Single Skin Oil Tanks do not incorporate any form of secondary containment. Therefore in the event of a spillage, a pollution incident will result. Consideration therefore should always be given to installing a Bunded Oil Tank. Bunded oil storage tanks are proven to significantly reduce the likelihood of a pollution incident, with all the corresponding clean up costs and fines, in the event of an oil leak. Fitting a single skin fuel oil tank where a bunded tank is require is an offence.
