Issues With Single Wall Tanks
Contents
Single-wall steel tanks are standard. You see them in a lot of individuals homes as that was the norm, years ago. As technology improved in the last ten years, so did the technology for oil storage tanks. With single wall tanks, you run the risk of:
- Corrosion Caused By Oil And Sludge: Moisture can get into the tank, and since oil is lighter than water, the water will sink to the bottom, making it easier for it to corrode your tank.
- Environment Issues: Nothing is protecting your home and the environment if the single wall tank breaks down due to corrosion, costing potentially thousands of dollars in clean-up fees.
- Rusting: Rust is always a concern due to outdoor elements. The presence of rust is inevitably going to occur, causing a single wall steel oil tank to be structurally unsound.
- 15 Year Lifespan: These tanks won’t last forever. On average, single wall tanks last 15 years before significant problems can occur. Whether it be sludge build-up or rusting, you will need to replace your tank.
