Is a Tank Tray Right for Your Home?

As your oil tank gets older, the chances of it leaking increase over time. Although our technicians visually inspect the oil tank upon service, leaks can happen anytime and can go unnoticed resulting in damages to your home and property, costing tens of thousands of dollars' worth of damages.

As your oil tank gets older, the chances of it leaking increase over time. Although our technicians visually inspect the oil tank upon service, leaks can happen anytime and can go unnoticed resulting in damages to your home and property, costing tens of thousands of dollars' worth of damages.

 

One of the most convenient and inexpensive ways to protect your home from an oil tank leak is to install a Tank Tray. The Tank Tray is a shield that slides directly underneath the oil tank and filter, protecting your home from up to 15 gallons of damaging oil. We recommend installing a Tank Tray in homes with oil tanks over 20 years old, or if there are signs of deterioration on the tank. Tank Tray’s are compatible with most oil tank configurations, giving homeowners the option of implementing one in almost any situation. If you know that you would like a tank tray installed prior to your next preventative maintenance, make sure to let us know you would like one installed while scheduling an appointment.

 

If you do not currently have a scheduled system maintenance and would like to schedule one or order a tank tray, you can schedule an appointment through your online account or by calling 508-753-1475. Schedule today and protect your home!
