What to know before buying a bunded oil tank?
- Capacity: You need to consider what size tank you’ll need to hold your oil.
- Maintenance: Make sure you know what maintenance your tank will need before you buy it.
- Environmental: Does you tank meet the local regulations for the protection and safety of the environment?
- Installation: If you think about how much space you need, you can start considering where your tanks will be housed. Any approvals required and logistics of installing the tank are factors to consider too.
- Budget: What will the long term costs be? Take some time to compare different prices to stay within your budget.
FAQ's
A bunded oil tank has two skins. The inner one holds the fuel and the outer is there in case of any leakages, acting as a failsafe to prevent fuel loss. The outer tank or bund holds at least 110% of the primary tank’s capacity.
What’s the purpose of a bunded oil tank?
They are a safe means of storage. Fuel can be dangerous – it can cause fires and environmental problems – so avoiding leaks is important.
Where should I install my tank?
Depending on the laws and available area, they are mostly installed above ground. Below ground tanks must be specifically designed for the purpose. All oil tanks must be installed by a competent person in line with OFTEC regulations, British Standards and LABC regulations. At Tanks For Everything, we can provide the accessories and any fittings needed to complete the installation of your tank.
Why are bunded oil tanks recommended?
They are useful for several reasons:
- They stop leakages – The outer tank makes them more effective than a single layered tank. This is a safe solution for the environment, so oil doesn’t escape and pollute the ground or water.
- They’re cost efficient – At first, buying a bunded tank can be expensive, but in the long run they save money as their design life exceeds that of a single skin tank.
How to protect my bunded oil tank
Some people install a high fence or cage around their bunded tank to make theft more difficult. CCTV cameras can also act as a deterrent. If theft is a major concern, bunded steel oil tanks are a more secure option.
Can tanks be located near to a boundary?
760mm is the closest it can be. If you’ve put a screen around your tank to stop thieves, then your tank can’t be closer than 600mm from this.
How far away should my tank be from any buildings?
Your tank must be at least 1.8 metres away from non-fire rated structures, buildings and their eaves. It should also be this distance away from liquid fuel appliance flue terminals.
What materials are used to make bunded tanks?
Bunded tanks are usually made from durable plastic such as medium density polyethylene, which is hard-wearing and resistant to splitting. Steel bunded tanks are also popular as they’re long-lasting, weather-resistant and more secure. At Tanks For Everything, we offer both materials in a range of sizes and designs.
What are the base requirements for bunded oil tanks?
The tank’s base should extend at least 300mm more than its widest points, and it must be fully supported.
What to do if my oil tank spills?
If safe, stop the leak and use sand, earth, or cat litter to cover the spill. Ensure no oil enters drains or water sources. If it does, report it to the UK incident hotline at 0800 80 70 60. Insurance may not cover oil spills, so prevention is essential.
What to do if I find water in my oil tank?
Contact an OFTEC registered engineer who can carry out a full tank clean. Pumping water out yourself is difficult and contaminated water must be disposed of correctly. A professional will ensure it’s done safely.
How often should I service my tank?
Your tank should be serviced yearly by an OFTEC engineer. You can also carry out regular inspections yourself by checking for cracks, bulging or debris – many people do this monthly.
Should my bunded oil tank smell of oil on sunny days?
Check for leaks such as wet patches around the tank. Warm weather can cause plastic to expand and sometimes split. However, some smell can be normal as oil vents in hot weather. Call a professional if unsure.
Can you store AdBlue in bunded tanks?
Yes, AdBlue can be stored in bunded tanks made from polyethylene or stainless steel. It must be kept out of direct sunlight and stored between 0°C and 30°C. We also offer dedicated AdBlue storage tanks.
Are Tanks For Everything's tanks OFTEC licensed?
Yes – they are checked and maintained to industry standards. They also meet regulations such as BS799, PPG2 & PPG26, Oil Pollution Prevention Guidelines and are CE marked by law.
Are bunded oil tanks compulsory?
Non-Domestic Tanks: For oil storage over 200 litres, bunded tanks are a legal requirement.
Domestic Tanks: Bunded tanks may be required if storing over 2,500 litres, near water sources, or if used for non-single-family dwellings.
What are the regulations for bunded oil tanks?
Any non-domestic tank over 200 litres must be bunded. For domestic tanks, a risk assessment is needed if storing over 2,500 litres, near drains or water sources, or if oil is used for buildings other than single-family homes. For more information, visit OFTEC.
