Oil Tank Services Wrexham

Traditionally, oil tanks were constructed of steel. Now, even though steel oil tanks are still available, virtually all tank installations, new and replacement are constructed of a heavy duty plastic. The advantages of installing a plastic oil tank make installing a steel tank unthinkable. Neataheat based in Wrexham are not only central heating and boiler specialists but also oil tank specialists, providing repair, replacement and relocation. Our team of oil tank service specialist engineers cover the whole of North Wales, Cheshire and Shropshire

Steel oil tanks fail mainly due to extensive corrosion, not only from the outside but also internally from condensation. Steel tanks are purposely installed uneven to allow anticipated sludge and debris to fall away from the oil supply outlet. Plastic oil tanks do not corrode, therefore eliminating the need for expensive removal of sludge and debris, and more importantly, no disastrous oil escapes.

In certain circumstances, you may be required to install a bunded oil tank. This is basically a tank within a tank, with the outer tank able to hold 110% of the inner volume of oil. This is required if the tank is to be located where it could cause an environmental concern if its contents were spilled. This includes near drains or controlled water such as streams.
