Spring is still a while away in Cape Cod, but you may be thinking about the HVAC maintenance tasks you’ll have on your to-do list when the season gets here. One item on your to-do list might be taking a good look at your oil tank. Hopefully, you inspect it on a regular basis for corrosion and other problems, but you may be thinking it’s time for a replacement. If you are, one type of tank to consider is a double-wall oil tank.
Top Advantages of Getting a Double-Wall Oil Tank on Cape Cod:
These tanks are modern and are a great alternative to traditional steel tanks. These tanks have an internal plastic tank surrounded by a metal tank on the outside. Read on to learn about the advantages of a double-wall oil tank from the experts at Falmouth Energy.
Leak Resistant
Because the tank is double walled, if there is ever a leak from the inner plastic tank, it will be caught by the outer tank. This means your environment and space are better protected from leaks and spills, which can be a costly mess to clean up. The outer tank is created with rust-free materials, heavily guarding against leaks, and the inner tank is also corrosion proof, so you should never have a problem with leaks anyway.
Weather Resistant
If you keep your tank outside, you don’t have to worry about weather. The double-wall tank is protected by two layers—giving you the added benefit of keeping rainwater out.
Rust Resistant
Most storage tanks rust from the inside out, but double-wall oil tanks are rust free on the inside and the outside. Moist air condenses internally and causes corrosion on the inside of single-wall steel tanks, but doubled-wall tanks have rust-resistant protection.
