Roth Oil Storage Tank Replacement in Danvers, Massachusetts

Problem: The Wilkinson’s were experiencing a leaky oil tank.
Solution: Townsend Energy replaced the leaking oil tank with a new Roth 275 double-wall heating oil tank.

What Are The Signs My Oil Tank Needs Replacing?
If you have an older heating oil tank, its maximum lifespan is roughly 30 years. For example, homes built in the 1980s are overdue for a replacement or upgrade. When an oil tank is nearing the end of its life expectancy, there are some usual signs of giving a heads up that it will fail soon. It’s best to call a heating expert to inspect and diagnose the situation. If you are experiencing any of the following, you need an oil tank replacement.
- Rust Spots, Cracks, Or Dents
- Corrosion
- Cracked Fuel Lines
- Unexplained Increase In Fuel Usage
- Clogged Heating System Pipes
- Wobbly, Unstable, Or Uneven Legs
- Oil Tank Exposed To The Elements
- Heating Oil Odor Near The Tank
- Visible Oil Stains And/Or Wet Spots On The Surface Of Tank Or Under The Tank
- Old Oil Tank Age (Roughly 30 Years)
It’s important to note that heating oil tanks won’t always show the usual signs of corrosion (no visible leaks or rust areas). After having a storage oil tank for many years, moisture and sediment get trapped inside and helps to corrode heating oil tanks from the inside out.
While an oil tank may leak before failing, every so often, a failure releases a plethora of oil without warning. If this situation were to occur, you could find yourself in a tricky predicament. Possibly costing thousands of dollars or more in clean up of your home and the environment.
With a Roth oil tank, they include a 30-year warranty with a $2 million guarantee on their products, caused by any workmanship issues, defects in the material, or failure due to corrosion of the tank. The $2 million guarantee covers oil spills and clean-up of your home and the environment.
If you feel your tank needs replacing, don’t wait. It’s never worth the risk to your home and your family’s safety. A better option is to consider leak-free, eco-friendly tank options from Townsend Energy. We’ll remove and dispose of your old tank safely and adequately, in compliance with all local, regional, and federal codes. We’ll also replace it with a new model that is reliable and built to last.
Why A Roth Double Wall Oil Tank?
Roth has many advantages over a standard oil tank. One of the main differences between a standard storage oil tank and a Roth double wall oil tank is the double-wall design offered by Roth. A conventional oil tank design is a single layer of steel that can corrode over time due to moisture and sediment build-up.
There are two tanks that make up a Roth double-wall storage oil tank:
Inner Tank: Made of a high-density, seamless, blow-molded polyethylene that is leak-proof, rust-proof, and corrosion-resistant.
Outer Tank: Made from leak-proof, weld-free galvanized steel which is roll-seamed to create an oil and fire resistant seal. This seal helps to make the tank rust-resistant inside and out.
There are other benefits of a Roth double-wall home heating oil tank, which helps make it an industry leader in the heating oil storage market. These are:
- 30 Year Warranty With $2 Million Clean-Up Guarantee
- Designed To Prevents Leaks, Spills, And Fires
- Ultra-Sound And Pressure Testing
- Only Tank On The Market That Has No Fittings Under It
- Unique Expansion System
- Leak-Proof Design
- Corrosion Free Design
- Easier And Faster To Fill
