This 2700 litre steel bunded oil tank is designed to safely store heating oil for domestic boiler systems requiring higher storage capacity. Its double-wall construction provides secondary containment while maintaining accessible height for servicing and inspection. The tank is suited to residential installations where reliable fuel supply and durable construction are important.
What This Tank Is
This tank is a double-skinned steel oil storage system built to store kerosene for domestic heating systems. The inner tank stores fuel while the outer bund provides secondary containment designed to capture leaks if they occur. Manufactured using steel and protective coatings, it functions as a steel bunded heating oil tank designed for long-term residential installations.
Compliance & Installation Considerations
The tank is mounted on steel channel bearers to provide stability during installation and to help support the weight of the filled unit. Its design maintains practical access to the top fittings while providing increased storage capacity compared with smaller tanks. For properties requiring a larger storage upgrade, a high capacity oil tank replacement may help improve fuel management across the heating season.
Capacity & Storage Suitability
With a capacity of 2700 litres, this tank is designed for households with higher heating oil consumption or properties that benefit from fewer fuel deliveries. A 2700 litre oil tank provides significantly increased storage capacity compared with smaller domestic tanks, making it suitable for larger homes or properties using oil-fired boilers throughout the year.
Construction & Durability
Manufactured from 2mm thick steel, the tank is coated with rust inhibiting primer to help protect the external surface from environmental exposure. The external finish consists of primer and gloss coating while the interior remains self colour. The bund is designed to contain 110% of inner tank volume, providing additional environmental protection for installations requiring a large domestic oil storage tank.
