This 900 litre steel bunded oil tank is designed for safe and practical heating oil storage at domestic properties where space may be limited. Its narrow profile makes installation easier in tighter access areas while still providing reliable fuel capacity. The bunded construction offers an additional containment layer to help protect the surrounding environment.
What This Tank Is
This unit is a double-skinned steel storage system manufactured for domestic kerosene storage. The inner tank holds the fuel while the outer bund provides secondary containment designed to hold potential leaks. Constructed using robust steel plate and finished with protective coatings, the tank is built for long-term outdoor installation as a steel oil storage tank for residential heating systems.
Compliance & Installation Considerations
This tank’s narrow width allows it to pass through many standard garden gates, making it particularly useful where installation access is restricted. The unit is mounted on steel channel bearers to provide a stable base and improve airflow beneath the tank during installation. Its bunded design also makes it suitable when a bunded oil tank replacement is required at a domestic property where secondary containment is necessary.
Capacity & Storage Suitability
The tank provides a storage capacity of 900 litres, making it suitable for smaller households or properties with lower fuel consumption. It can support properties that rely on oil-fired heating systems without requiring the footprint of a much larger storage tank. For many homes with moderate demand, a 900 litre oil tank offers a balanced option between storage capacity and installation space.
Construction & Durability
The tank body is manufactured from 2mm thick steel and coated with rust inhibiting primer to help protect the surface from environmental exposure. External surfaces are finished with primer and gloss coating, while the internal lining remains self colour. The bund layer is designed to contain 110% of inner tank volume, supporting long-term durability for an oil tank for domestic heating installation where reliability and containment are important considerations.
Technical & Manufacturing Information
Our tanks are made from HRMS BS EN10025-S275JR. They are all pressure tested well in excess of the requirements of B.S.799 by very experienced welders. The inner tank is tested to 1psi and the outer bund tested sound.
