Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if my oil tank is leaking?
Once you discover your oil tank is leaking, you must stay away from the area around it to ensure your safety. Turn off any valves, taps or appliances linked to your oil tank to help reduce the amount of oil leaking.
It is essential to keep any flames, sparks, or potential ignition sources away from the leak.
Once these initial steps have been taken, you should contact an OFTEC-registered technician, environmental agency, or non-emergency services to report the leak and get assistance.
Try to contain the spilt oil using disposable absorbent pads, sand, sawdust, or cardboard. Place them around the tank to prevent the oil from spreading further. But, avoid using materials that may react with oil or cause additional environmental harm such as flushing the oil away with water.
Oil tank leakages are usually considered an oil tank emergency. If you have an oil tank emergency in Norfolk, call a member of our team on our 24/7 phone line: 01638 592306.
What is the difference between a bunded and a single-skinned tank?
A single-skin oil tank holds oil within a single layer of either plastic or steel. Tanks with single bunds cannot be bigger than 2,500. A bunded oil tank is a double-skinned tank. The outer tank acts as a failsafe, so if the internal tank fails or overflows, the secondary bund will catch it, avoiding a leak. Bunded oil tanks offer a greater layer of protection for an oil tank owner, and have more lenient rules and regulations surrounding location and size.

What is OFTEC and OFTEC qualified Technicians?
OFTEC is a trade association that represents manufacturers of liquid fuel heating equipment and training providers. In 2002, the British government introduced the competent person scheme for various building trades, including heating. This scheme requires that your oil tank be installed, inspected, and regulated by a certified technician to ensure its safety and longevity.
Since the regulation changed, OFTEC started offering a competent persons scheme for businesses and technicians approved to install and maintain oil heating equipment. All technicians at Oil Tank Change are OFTEC Certified, offering you peace of mind when you choose Oil Tank Change for your oil tank services in Norfolk.
How long does an oil tank installation take?
The length of an oil tank installation depends on the project. The size, location, and type of an oil tank can affect the duration of an installation, as can the site condition, how easy it is to access the area, and the weather conditions.
Timings range from a few hours to days – on a domestic property, you can expect your tank to take a few hours, or half a day, whereas on more complicated installations, including on commercial properties, you can expect installations to last anywhere from 1-2 days.
