Where to buy kerosene oil

Also known as paraffin oil, heating oil or 28-second oil, kerosene oil is one of the most popular home heating oils used in the UK.

Efficient and clean burning, this type of oil can be purchased in both small and large quantities and is suitable for both domestic and commercial use.

Here’s our guide to everything you need to know about where to buy kerosene oil.

What is kerosene?

Kerosene oil is a flammable liquid used as fuel for heat, power, and light in both commercial and domestic settings. Incredibly versatile, this fuel is reliable, robust, and cost-effective.

Derived from petroleum, this combustible hydrocarbon liquid is also widely used within the aviation industry, too.

Buying kerosene in bulk

One of the benefits of kerosene fuel is that it is widely available to purchase in bulk quantities, however, it’s important to choose a trusted supplier.

A number of different benefits come hand in hand with buying in bulk including:

Make significant cost savings
Increase productivity in commercial settings
Reduce the amount of time spent collecting fuel or waiting for your fuel to be delivered
Remove the risk of running out of fuel.

Who delivers kerosene?

Here at NWF Fuels, we have established ourselves as a trusted supplier of heating oil and commercial fuel across the UK, including kerosene oil.

We deliver throughout England and Wales to domestic, agricultural, commercial, and retail customers.

Our premium kerosene improves the efficiency of your system and can reduce your fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.

By removing the impurities, premium fuels can improve the efficiency of a system, often proving to be very cost-effective over the long term. Premium fuels also typically contain a range of active ingredients that help to maintain healthy performance and prevent negative processes such as sludge buildup or corrosion.

Alongside regular servicing, using premium fuels can increase the lifespan of boilers, engines, and combustion systems, so the key to understanding the value of premium fuels is to look at both long-term efficiency performance and the increase in longevity of the mechanism.

Gas Oil Duty Changes

Update: 15th March 2023

Following an entitlement amendment dated from 15^th March 2023, we are now able to supply rebated red diesel for the following uses:

Premises where the primary purpose is heating non-commercial properties but, to some extent, are used for commercial purposes. This includes accommodation used part-time for bed and breakfast and district heating networks that primarily supply non-commercial premesis
Arboriculture for all forms of tree work that were applicable for rebated diesel before April 2022 including machines and appliances (excluding vehicles) with a use relating to horticulture such as tending parks and gardens
Lifeboats and for generating heat and electricity in lifeboat stations, but not in tractors and gear used to launch and haul lifeboats from the water

What is changing with the gas oil duty changes?

In March 2021, the UK Government announced gas oil duty changes, which mean that as of the 1^st April 2022 the rules on the tax relief of red diesel are changing.

The revision to the current taxation means that many sectors that use red diesel will no longer receive tax relief and will be required to switch to an alternative fuel such as white diesel (DERV), or a greener product in HVO30. Organisations previously using red diesel for commercial heating will also have the option of Prem35.

As of the 1st April 2022, many sectors will now need to use an alternative to red diesel, as they are now being forced to use a different fuel that is taxed at the standard rate for white diesel.

The laws are changing as part of the UK Governments push to achieve a net zero emissions target by 2050. The changes are to encourage the development and usage of cleaner, more sustainable fuels and while this is a positive environmental step it does present a challenge to a wide range of sectors and businesses.

Many businesses may have assessed their usage and planned their transition to an alternative following the gas oil duty changes, but we are aware that there are others that are unsure of whether they remain exempt or not and what the financial implications are to their business in having to switch from red to white diesel.

Who will be affected by the changes?

We are here to help shed light on some of the grey areas surrounding the upcoming changes. If you currently use red diesel in machinery, generators or for heating purposes in the following sectors you will be affected by the changes.

Construction, mining, and quarrying
Manufacturing
Plant hire, transportation/ logistics, waste management
Highway maintenance
Airport activities
Ports and harbour activities

From the 1^st April 2022 we will only be able to supply red diesel to your business if that application is for the sole purpose of the following

Agriculture, horticulture, forestry, fishing and arboriculture*
Flood and snow clearance including gritters
Propulsion of passenger, freight, and maintenance vehicles on rails
Propulsion of commercial boats including passenger ferries, water freight and lifeboat charities*
The powering of machinery (including caravans) of travelling fairs and circuses
Heating and electricity generation for non-commercial premises including homes, places of worship, NHS hospitals, townhalls and permanently moored houseboats*
Amateur sports clubs and community sports centres, golf courses (including activities such as ground maintenance, and the heating and lighting of clubhouses, changing rooms etc.)

*Following an entitlement amendment dated from 15^th March 2023, we are now able to supply rebated red diesel for these uses.

For a full list of sectors and exemptions of use for red diesel you can check on the Gov.uk website or check with HMRC to confirm your exemption status.

Changing to an alternative – what does that mean?

Red diesel is currently used by a number of industries in machinery and equipment, and it makes up for around 15% of the diesel that is used in the UK. However, users currently only have to pay 11.14p per litre as a duty rate in contrast to the 57.95 ppl for white diesel. This means that these sectors are going to miss out on making a saving of 81% when they make the switch. For those sectors that are going to need to make the switch to white diesel then they are clearly going to miss out on savings.

Failing to comply with the regulatory changes can result in heavy fines. It is therefore recommended that your business starts to plan for the transition if you are going to be affected. Here a just a few things to consider:

If you stock red diesel for an application that will be affected by the changes you will need to run the stock down before the 1st April deadline. There is no grace period after this date.
Retain proof of purchase for red diesel to prove that you have not stockpiled red diesel for the intended use after the 1st April
You may require an additional tank to store white diesel and avoid cross contamination of red and white diesel products
If you intend to use the same tank for storing white diesel that once held red diesel, you may be required to flush the tank and supply lines before the 1st April
Check the condition and security of your tanks. Many businesses are targeted for their fuel and fuel theft is expected to increase as more switch from red to white products.
Fuel usage and efficiency can be monitored by using a telemetry device. We can provide the latest radar unit technology to monitor tank levels and set up alerts when running low. This can also help alert you of leaks or theft too

We do offer and can assist in the clearing of tanks and lines if this is something you feel you may need assistance with.

Call us on 01829 260900 >>

What are the alternatives following the gas oil duty change?

Once you have assessed whether your business will be affected now is the time to start planning the switch to an alternative. We have a wide range of products that are suitable replacements:

Standard White Diesel (Derv)
HVO30 – A blended drop-in replacement consisting of 30% Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) and white diesel offering a cleaner alternative
Prem35 – an efficient replacement fuel for commercial heating applications in boilers or burners. Prem35 is a cost-effective alternative

Please call your local depot and speak to one of our experts for more information on any of the alternative products. We are here to help you and your business manage the transition if required.

How do Home Heating Oil Users Benefit from the Alternative Fuel Payment?

UPDATE 12/04/2023

The government has extended the window for oil-heated homeowners applying for their £200 domestic “Alternative Fuel Payment” (AFP).

Previously the eligibility window was set from September 2022 but has been extended to June 2022 to accommodate occupants that purchased fuel in bulk ahead of winter.

This means that if you have not yet received a £200 alternative fuels payment, but have proof of spending at least £200 on home heating oil since June 2022, then you could be entitled to the energy bill support.

Most people will automatically receive the payment as credit on their electricity bill. However, if you have not received the payment automatically you can use the AFP application portal until the end of May 2023.

UPDATE 06/02/2023

Further information has now been released to confirm a payment of £200 will be made to contribute towards the cost of heating your home. Payments will begin to be released from February via your electricity supplier or the government. A statement from the trade association UKIFDA said:

“The £200 payments will start 6th February 2023, with most customers receiving the payment automatically as a credit on their electricity bill within the next month. The government has provided electricity suppliers with a list.

A small minority of customers, including those living in park homes or on houseboats with no direct electricity supplier and those on the gas grid but without a gas connection and using heating oil, will need to apply to the Alternative Fuel Payment Alternative Fund (AFPAF) via an application portal on the government’s website https://www.gov.uk/ which will open later in February”.

You can find more information here: Households, businesses and organisations off the gas grid to receive energy bill support over the coming weeks – GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

We fully support this advice, and it echoes the advice we give below.

UPDATE 13/10/2022

UKIFDA, the industry body for the distribution of liquid fuels, has met with the government about the targeted support payment for heating oil households. This support is now known as the “Alternative Fuel Payment” (AFP) and will be applied directly to eligible customers’ electricity bills this winter. They have advised strongly that customers do not delay if they need heating oil:

“Inevitably this [£100 support] will take some time, so we strongly recommend that customers do not wait if they need heating oil. We are working closely with the government to find a solution and ensure that heating oil households receive their £100 as soon as possible.

UPDATE 18/11/2022

In his Autumn Statement on 17th November 2022, Chancellor Jeremy Hunt announced that the Alternative Fuel Payment (AFP) for domestic customers would be doubled from £100 to £200. The government has said that this will be applied as a credit to electricity bills but they have not confirmed when this payment will be made to available to eligible households. We advise that you do not delay your heating oil order – click above to get a quote and place your order now.

UPDATE 19/12/2022

The government has announced today that the £200 Alternative Fuel Payment will be made in Northern Ireland in January 2023 and in Great Britain in February 2023. This will be distributed as a £200 credit to electricity bills. For those without an electricity supplier, an online portal will be available in February 2023.

The government announced in September 2022 that we would receive help towards the increasing costs of gas and electricity bills. However, there has been some uncertainty around whether users of home heating oil will be able to access similar funding to help heat their homes.

In this short guide, we are going to cover what the Energy Price Guarantee is and what it means for you, whether there will be any equivalent help for home heating oil users, and some tips to help you with your home heating oil this winter.

What is the Energy Price Guarantee?

In the announcement from the government on the 8^th September, several measures were announced to combat the rise of energy costs for households in the form of an Energy Price Guarantee, as well as plans to increase national energy supply and resilience, and meet the target of the UK becoming a net exporter of energy by 2040.

Standing charges will remain in line with the levels set by Ofgem for the default tariff cap from 1^st October 2022 – this is 46p per day for electricity and 28p per day for gas for a typical dual fuel customer paying by direct debit.

This will cap energy bills at £2,500 for a typical household until April 2023, based on the median average usage for all properties across the UK, at which the cap will be raised to £3,000 (as announced by Chancellor Jeremy Hunt in his Autum Statement)

The Energy Price Guarantee limits the amount you can be charged per unit, so your exact bill will be based on the amount you use – if you use more than the average, you will pay more than £2,500, and if you use less, you will pay less than £2,500.

This is a saving of over £1,000 for the typical household, as the price cap announced by Ofgem was due to rise to £3,549 on 1^st October 2022 (an 80% increase on the current cap of £1,971).

Will I still receive the £400 from the Energy Bills Support Scheme?

The Energy Bills Support Scheme (EBSS) announced by the government earlier this year is still in place. This will provide support to every household in the form of a £400 grant applied to your electricity bill (electricity was chosen as the electricity grid is more extensive than the mains gas network, so the help will reach more people more quickly). This will be paid in monthly instalments from October 2022 – March 2023 (£66 in October, and £67 each month afterwards).

You do not need to apply for this grant, and you do not need to pay it back.

How this is paid to you will depend on how you pay for your electricity, so please contact your electricity supplier or visit their website to find out more information.

The government has confirmed that further funding will be available to provide equivalent support for the 1% of households who are not eligible for this grant. This includes households without a domestic electricity meter or a direct relationship with an electricity supplier (e.g. park homes, houseboats, or living ‘off-grid’).

If you usually receive a Winter Fuel Payment, this still applies – you will receive that payment this winter.

Does the Energy Price Guarantee Apply to Heating Oil households?

The Energy Price Guarantee does not include households that use heating oil to heat their homes as it only applies to those who are on the grid.

However, the government announced that those households using home heating oil would receive “equivalent” support, ensuring that they wouldn’t miss out on the benefits that electricity and mains gas customers will receive:

“For those using heating oil, living in park homes, or those on heat networks, we will set up a fund so that all UK consumers can benefit from equivalent support.”

Liz Truss

The government announced on 21st September 2o22 that households not eligible for the Energy Price Guarantee will receive alternative targeted support to help with the cost of energy bills (now called the Alternative Fuel Payment). This was announced alongside Energy Bill Relief Scheme for businesses, charities, and public sector organisations.

What is the Alternative Fuel Payment?

The Government announced on the 12th October 2022 that the targeted support for households not on mains gas (which includes those using home heating oil) is now called the Alternative Fuel Payment (AFP), and that this payment would be applied as a credit to the electricity bills of eligible households this winter.

The government has said that it will “continue to monitor the prices of…heating oil, and will consider further intervention if required to protect UK households from extraordinary fuel prices.”

UPDATE: In his Autumn Statement on 17th November 2022, Chancellor of the Exchequer Jeremy Hunt announced that the Alternative Fuel Payment for heating oil households will be doubled to £200 to help with the rising cost of bills.

The government has said that the Alternative Fuel Payment will be made available to home heating oil customers in February 2023, so our advice to you is to continue to purchase your heating oil as usual, and not to delay ordering.

What if I don’t have an Electricity Supplier?

The government has said that those who do not receive the AFP due to not having a relationship with an electricity supplier will not miss out. They will receive £200 through an AFP Alternative Fund via a designated body. The government has said that customers will be able to apply by an online government portal in February 2023.

Will There be Government Funding Available to Help with My Home Heating Oil Bills?

Whilst the government didn’t give specific details in their statement on the 8^th September, the Prime Minister said that there would be a discretionary fund available for those homes that are not part of the mains gas network.

The government then announced on 21st September 2o22 that households not eligible for the Energy Price Guarantee will receive targeted support to help with the cost of energy bills. On 12th October 2022, they announced that the £100 payment, now called the Alternative Fuel Payment (AFP) would be applied as a credit to the electricity bills of eligible households. On 17th November 2022, Chancellor Jeremy Hunt announced that this support would be doubled to £200.

The government has said that this payment will be made in February r. We are awaiting government advice and consulting with our industry body, UKIFDA, so that we have the most up-to-date information available.

We will be able to provide more information as soon it is made available – please continue to check this page and follow us on social media for further updates.

However, you will still receive the £400 EBSS grant (mentioned above) to help with your household bills.

Our Advice for Home Heating Oil This Winter

In the meantime, here are a few top tips from us to help with your home heating oil this winter:

Don’t Delay – Top Up Before Busy Periods

As the days and nights get colder, the demand for home heating oil increases. The price also increases during periods of high demand, so ordering your heating oil before the busy winter period will help to keep costs down. If you delay your heating oil order, you run the risk of running out and needing to order during busy periods, which could cause delays as demand increases.

Join The Cold Weather Priority Initiative If You Are Eligible

NWF Fuels is a member of the Cold Weather Priority (CWP) Initiative, which is a scheme to identify and prioritize customers aged over 75.

You are eligible for the scheme if your household has at least one member over 75. You simply just need to tell us when you order.

Join a Payment Plan

Having a direct debit payment plan in place is a really good way to offset the cost of your home heating oil and save for your next top-up. By splitting up the cost of your home heating oil into manageable monthly payments across the year, you will have the peace of mind that your bills are under control and that you have some funds in your account if prices rise.

At NWF Fuels, we offer two kinds of payment plan – our Budget Plan and our Priority Club, both of which allow you to spread the cost of your heating oil.

Upgrade to Premium Fuels If You Can

Upgrading to a premium home heating oil helps to increase boiler efficiency and helps to keep your heating system healthy. This results in a greener, cleaner burn and will enable you to get more out of your tank, saving you money over time.

What Are Bunded Oil Tanks

When considering heating oil tanks, it’s important to choose between a single-skin or a bunded tank. A bunded tank consists of two layers, with the inner layer storing the oil and the outer layer acting as a safety precaution against leaks or spills.

Many UK properties rely on oil for heating and hot water, particularly those not connected to the national gas network. It’s crucial to prioritize safety and consider the long-term benefits of a bunded tank before installation or replacement.

Unlike single-skin tanks, which have only one layer, bunded tanks have an additional layer that provides extra protection for the stored fuel. This second layer, known as the bund layer, serves as a tank within a tank, minimizing the risk of fuel leakage or spills.

When making this important decision, it’s important to opt for a bunded tank as it offers a greater level of safety and protection. The inner layer of the bunded tank contains the heating oil, while the outer layer shields it from potential damage. This makes it a safer choice than single-skin tanks in the long run.

Do I need a bunded oil tank?

Bunded tanks not only provide enhanced safety, but they may also be mandatory in certain situations, particularly in domestic environments. To illustrate, bunded tanks are required if:

The tank can hold more than 2,500 litres of oil
The tank’s vent pipes are not visible while being filled
It is located within 10 metres of inland fresh waters, such as ponds, rivers, streams, or coastal waters
It is located within 50 metres of a drinking water source
An oil spill could reach an open drain or a loose manhole cover
An oil spill could reach coastal waters, inland fresh waters, or a drinking water source via hard ground
The tank is supplying heating oil to a building other than a single-family residence
The tank is situated in an Environment Agency groundwater protection zone 1
The tank is located in proximity to an environmental hazard.

If you use oil for heating and cooking, you may require a bunded tank. Range cookers like AGAs consume about 7 litres of fuel daily, which means you’ll need a minimum of 2,500 litres per year, on top of fuel for heating and hot water.

How do I install a bunded oil tank?

It is crucial to have your bunded oil tank installed by an experienced engineer who is certified and knowledgeable about the latest regulations concerning oil and fuel tank installations.

If your bunded oil tank is connected to a boiler, the installation must adhere to OFTEC fire regulations. These regulations include ensuring that the tank is located on a non-combustible base that extends at least 300mm around the exterior of the tank. The tank must also be situated at a specified distance from non-fire-rated areas of the property and must not be installed within 1.8m of doors, windows, or other openings. Furthermore, it must be located at least 1.8m away from the flue terminals of oil-fired appliances and at least 600mm away from any trellis work or screening.

What sizes do bunded tanks come in?

Bunded oil tanks come in a variety of sizes, catering to different needs. Domestic tanks can range from 650 litres to 10,000 litres, depending on several factors, such as oil usage, property size, and available space. The size of the tank can be customised to suit your unique requirements.

What are the prices of bunded oil tanks?

The cost of a bunded oil tank can vary based on various factors such as size and manufacturer. Depending on your specifications, the price of a tank typically falls between £1,250 and £5,000.

More reasons why you need a bunded oil tank

Apart from fulfilling certain legal requirements, a bunded oil tank provides several other advantages, which include:

Longer warranty

Bunded tanks are known to provide extended warranty periods compared to single-skin tanks, often lasting up to 10 years.

Increased safety

Oil theft is a common occurrence in the UK, with over 25,000 fuel thefts reported in 2018 alone, and this risk is expected to increase as fuel prices rise. Domestic heating oil tanks are often targeted by thieves due to the valuable oil they contain.

To address this issue, bunded oil tanks are equipped with various safety features to prevent fuel theft. These features include a lockable fill point, a tank gauge, a fuel inspection hatch, and an overfill protection device. By having these safety features, homeowners can have peace of mind knowing that their heating oil is secure and protected from potential theft.

Call us on 01829 260900 >>

Oil recovery

The recovery of oil from the bund layer in the event of an inner oil tank failure can help to reduce losses of fuel and minimize the costs associated with cleanup efforts. This approach allows the oil to be reused, resulting in significant savings for those who rely on this valuable resource.

Lower risk of environmental damage

To avoid harm to the environment, it is essential to reduce the possibility of oil spills. Bunded tanks provide greater protection against oil spills compared to single-skin tanks.

Cost savings

Owning a bunded oil tank can result in substantial savings on oil expenses. As oil prices fluctuate throughout the year, it’s recommended to purchase oil in larger quantities during periods of lower prices. Bunded tanks provide ample space for storage, enabling bulk purchases of oil, whereas single-skin tanks are restricted to 2,500 litres or less.

Rainwater protection

The presence of water in your oil tank can lead to significant damage and can often go unnoticed until it creates an expensive problem with your boiler or AGA. In order to prevent this, bunded oil tanks have been designed to prevent rainwater, insects, and leaves from entering the tank, which can cause blockages in the pipes that supply your boiler.

With our 40+ years of experience delivering high-quality oil for residential and commercial use, we are among the top distributors in the country.

Here are some of the most important things to consider.

1: Location

It may seem like an obvious factor but knowing the geographical capabilities of your supplier is essential. It may be that case that you find a supplier that fits all your requirements, only to discover they are unable to service your area.

While choosing a new heating oil supplier, make sure to research the delivery locations of suppliers in your area. Some may serve the local community, while others may cover larger regions or even the entire country, with larger service areas signaling additional technicians and experts on hand.

Additionally, a supplier that covers a larger area may serve you in future should you decide to move home or premises.

2: Customer care and support

It goes without saying that great customer service should come as standard with any heating oil supplier. You may find however, that isn’t always the case.

The supplier you choose should centralise customers at its very core. Providing quality customer care and support should mean more than just a standard service. It should mean emergency support when you need it most, delivery days that are convenient to you, and an expert team of knowledgeable staff able to answer any queries you may have.

3: Reviews

Knowing your oil provider has a proven history of exceptional customer service can set your mind at ease when it comes to choosing a provider with a positive reputation.

A majority of positive reviews can help you understand at a glance the type of service you can expect from your supplier and whether they are reputable, trustworthy and more likely to fulfil your expectations.

4: Pricing and payment plans

Pricing options and payment plans can be the deciding factor for many people choosing a new heating oil supplier.

Many suppliers offer a range of plans to suit your budget, with options such as NWF Fuel’s Priority Club. Becoming a Priority Club member unlocks a range of benefits such as:

Smart monitoring with OilFox, allows you to monitor your oil tank usage and spend wherever you are.
Manageable monthly direct debits
Prem Pure premium fuel additive at no extra cost.

Heating oil smart monitors

5: Upfront Fees

Choosing an oil supplier who is open and transparent about their fees and costs means you are fully in the loop from day 1 and in complete control over your finance options.

Some providers may list these fees on their website or may share them while discussing your payment options.

In either case, choosing a supplier who willingly and openly provides their policy on upfront fees is a positive sign. Some of these fees may include:

A convenience fee
Delivery fees
Tank maintenance fees

6: Reliability

Your chosen supplier must be reliable, in both supply and delivery. This is even more crucial during periods of high demand on your tank, throughout the colder months.

With a fleet of over 155 vehicles, we operate from local depot networks, with expert delivery teams who know your local area, delivering your oil when you need it, where you need it.

All of our tankers are tracked, so we know where your delivery is at all times. Each of our tankers are also equipped with the latest metering systems, approved by HMRC and Trading Standards, so we can pinpoint exactly how much oil we deliver to your tank.

With our Priority Club, you’ll also have the option to negate the stress of oil monitoring and ordering, with automatic smart systems in place that detect when your tank is running low, triggering a delivery.

7: Experience

Choosing a heating oil supplier with a proven, successful track record means you are choosing quality, longevity, and experience.

At NWF Fuels, we’ve been servicing homes, businesses, and farms for over 100 years. Founded in 1871 as a farming cooperative with our first fuel deliveries taking place in 1950, we have grown to become the UK’s third-largest supplier of fuels and lubricants.

From small beginnings, we’ve maintained our dedication to quality customer service and providing a reliable, local service for homes and businesses across the country.

8: Tank Installation, maintenance and protection

If you’re making the switch from an alternative heating source to oil, you’ll need to begin by sourcing a heating oil tank.

With a wide range of tank options available, it’s crucial you choose a supplier who can source, install, maintain, and protect your oil tank.

Choosing a supplier who is clear on the rules and regulations surrounding oil tank installation is vital. Look for a supplier who can offer you an assortment of tanks, with experts on hand to talk you through your options. You can find out about installation in our heating oil tank installation guide.

9: Contracts

Some heating oil suppliers may require you to sign a contract. The benefits of this may depend on your personal situation, as contracts may lock you into a certain provider for a specific period of time.

This can help to relieve the stress of searching for new providers but may also be an issue if your provider cannot compete with lower prices or better services of other suppliers.

Weigh up the pros and cons and how they may affect your personal situation before signing a contract.

10: Guarantees and warranties

If you switch to a supplier who can deliver and install your oil tank, whether you’ve just switched to heating oil or are replacing an older model, you want peace of mind that the equipment you’re paying for is fully protected.

Check whether your provider offers warranty plans or guarantees on any tank installations, and what the warranties entail, making sure your equipment is covered and protected against a range of possibilities.

A guide to heating oil tank spills and leaks

No matter how well you maintain your oil tank, leaks can occur because of environmental damage, such as changes in humidity and temperature causing expansion and contraction, which can result in seasonal temperature changes.

As well as being costly and inconvenient, an oil tank leak can also be damaging to the environment, property, and human health.

How do heating oil tank leaks occur?

Heating oil tanks can leak for a number of reasons, including:

Failure of the tank body
Damage to equipment on the tank
Damage to the fuel feed lines
Failure of components at the boiler end of the system

Dealing with oil tank leaks

An oil leak or spill can have a huge impact on surrounding wildlife and the environment, so it’s important that it’s correctly dealt with, and fast.

If you use heating oil, it is your responsibility to ensure that it is safely stored and does not pose a risk to the environment. And, if a spill does happen, you will be responsible for managing the clean-up and repair, the costs for which can run into the thousands. With this in mind, it’s essential to have the relevant insurance in place, covering both the cost of a replacement tank and oil and the cost of the clean-up operation.

Of course, before you can deal with your oil tank leak, you’ll need to determine that it is actually leaking – which can be easier said than done.

If your tank is indoors, then you will typically be able to smell oil and see it on the floor close to the source of the leak. If your tank is outdoors, however, it isn’t always so easy – so it’s worth checking for leaks on a regular basis.

The dangers of an oil leak

Oil leaks can be incredibly harmful to the environment. Kerosene heating oil is toxic and harmful to plants and animals, as well as posing a risk to habitats and water.

And the longer the oil leak is left unresolved, the worse the impact will be. So, if your oil tank has spilt into controlled waters such as streams, ponds, or lakes, it’s vital that you contact the Environment Agency as a priority.

If left unaddressed, heating tank oil leaks can also be harmful to your health, leading to strong odours and fumes which can cause symptoms such as headaches, sore throats, and eye irritation.

Steps to solve an oil tank leak

Signs of an oil tank leak include:

A strong smell of oil around or inside your home
Blackening of grass around the tank or pipes
Noticeable increase in usage and cost

If you experience an oil tank leak, you need to act fast! Take the following steps to help resolve the leak as quickly as possible:

First, you need to prevent any more oil from leaking out, so turn the tap off to stop the flow of oil.
Next, try to identify where the leak is so that you can reduce the flow of oil.
Check if the leak has caused any oil to spill onto the ground. If it has, try to absorb as much as possible using sand and attempt to prevent any spread to nearby buildings or water sources.
Once you have taken measures to soak up any oil that has spilt onto your own land, you’ll need to identify whether it has spread to any other land.
Next, try to identify how much fuel has been lost from the tank by checking your usage records, as well as receipts from the fuel supplier. You should also contact your fuel supplier and ask them to remove the remaining fuel as quickly as possible.
You’ll need to contact your insurance provider, who should arrange for contractors to deal with the spill. If the heating oil has contaminated any controlled waters, such as streams, ponds, or lakes, you’ll also need to contact the environmental agency.

Identifying where the leak is

A leak can occur at any point in your heating system, or even multiple points, so it isn’t always easy to identify where the leak is.

Assess the tank itself for any signs of damage, and check for oil in the area immediately around the tank.
If there is no oil close to the tank, follow the pipes, again looking for any signs of damage or oil on the ground.
Assess the boiler to check whether there are any leaks coming from a valve in your furnace.

Repairing damaged oil pipes

If the leak is caused by a damaged pipe, you’ll need to repair it as quickly as possible to prevent any further damage. Remember, all pipe repairs must be carried out by an OFGEM-approved technician to ensure that they meet the necessary regulations.

Call us on 01829 260900 >>

Replacing a domestic heating oil tank

If you need to replace your oil tank due to a leak, you must ensure that the old tank is removed safely and the new tank complies with all relevant Building Regulations, as laid out by your Local Authority. You will need a Building Notice as proof of compliance unless the work is carried out by a qualified and registered technician who is permitted to certify their own work.

If any of the below apply, the replacement tank must also have secondary containment:

Has a capacity of at least 2,5000 litres
Is situated within 10m of controlled water, such as a stream, ditch, river, lake, pond, or canal
Is located where a spillage could run into an open drain or loose-fitting manhole cover
Is located within 50m of sources of drinking water
Is located on the hard ground of hard surfaced ground that could allow spilt oil to run into controlled water
Is located in such a way that the tank vent pipe outlet cannot be seen from the fill point.

10 Steps to Prevent Home Heating Oil Theft

Many homes rely on heating oil to keep their homes cosy and warm but as fuel prices continue to rise, could your heating oil tank fall victim to oil thieves?

In 2022, there has been a significant increase in heating oil thefts and local police encourage residents to be mindful of their home security.

Now more than ever, it is important to take as many steps as possible to ensure your tank isn’t an easy target. To help, we have ten steps that aim to prevent home heating oil theft.

How to prevent theft of home heating oil tanks

Heating oil is costly and may leave you venerable to thieves operating in your area. To ensure the safety of your home and to give you some peace of mind, here are ten steps to prevent oil theft.

Install oil tank locks

It’s not unusual for thieves to bring tools to help them gain access to your tank, so it is important you lock it up using a high-quality padlock or locking bar system.

Heating oil tank padlocks are widely available and be sure to check your chosen lock is suitable to sustain all weathers.

Although thieves are able to drill into your tank, a maximum-security lock is a visual security measure that indicates forward thinking and may deter the thief if they believe several other measures may be in place.

Install an oil tank alarm

Installing an oil tank alarm allows you to be alerted to any dips in your oil tank levels. An alarm can alert you from inside the home or on your phone when you are not home.

Thieves can steal thousands of pounds of heating oil quickly and discreetly so an alarm may not deter them as by the time the alarm sounds your tank could already be empty.

However, displaying a sign informing thieves that your heating oil tank is alarmed can be beneficial to prevent theft.

A smart monitor can also alert you to sudden drops in fuel and alerts can be set-up in the app.

Install CCTV

One of the best security measures to protect your heating oil levels is to install CCTV. CCTV will not only deter thieves but will also catch them in the act.

CCTV installation is a visual security measure that prevents oil theft by deterring thieves from targeting your home. Showing signs of proactive thinking and taking preventative measures makes it less likely for a robbery to take place on your property.

Protect your tank with fencing

Another great way to protect your heating oil tank is to install a fence around it. Although fences won’t necessarily disguise your oil tank, they can provide significant protection.

Steel and metal fences with a lockable access point ensure your oil tank are not on public display or accessible by opportunists in your area.

Keep your tank hidden

Thieves can use Google Maps and satellite images online to locate their heating oil tanks and pick their targets. However, with no oil tank on display, it would be increasingly difficult for thieves to know where it is located.

Ensuring your oil tank is hidden and can not be seen by passers-by is key to eliminating your tank as a potential target. Thieves often patrol areas in search of their target so the aim should be to make your tank as discreet as possible.

Keeping your tank away from gates, footpaths, and access points while making sure it is visible from the house is an effective way to deter thieves as they cannot access it easily or quickly without being caught.

Get a security light

Most thieves operate at night and steal heating oil when there is nobody around to catch them. Automatic security lights often startle thieves and draw attention to them.

Bright security lights will not only interrupt the thief in action, but they will also be bright enough to alert you inside so you can inform the police at the time of the crime.

Lay gravel around your tank

Thieves feel comfortable at night when it is quiet, and they are unlikely to be disturbed. Gravel is loud and will discourage thieves by creating mass amounts of noise.

The noise will deter the thief and alert you of trespassers on your property. It is also one of the most cost-effective, and easiest ways to secure your home.

Invest in a steel tank

Heating oil tanks are often green and plastic making them easy for thieves to access and identify. Although plastic models may be cheaper, they are also more appealing to operating thieves as they can be accessed quickly and easily with little force.

Steel tanks come in a range of shapes and sizes and offer much more security than their plastic counterpart. Made from steel, these tanks are sturdier and much harder to damage without making a lot of noise.

Be vigilant

If you notice suspicious large vehicles in or around your street be sure to take down the details and pass them on to the police. It is always best to report suspicious activity just in case.

You can report any suspicious behaviour to your local police station via telephone or online.

Defensive planting

Prickly bushes, spiky hedges, and thorny shrubs are natural deterrents that help to reduce crime. Thieves will be deterred from your home as prickly bushes could easily rip their clothing and lead the police to identify them.

Plant bushes, shrubs, and hedges around your heating oil tank for an effective and inexpensive security measure.

Tank accessibility, age, and size

You should always check the accessibility, age, condition, and size of the oil tank when buying a home with oil heating. This should give you a good idea of the condition and potential lifespan of the tank. Domestic oil tanks tend to last between 10-15 years, so if you discover that the tank is more than 8 years old, make sure you factor replacing it into your short-term budget.

Condition of the boiler, servicing history and fuel efficiency

Always check the overall condition, servicing history, and fuel efficiency of the heating oil tank, checking for any cracks or other examples of wear and tear.

Make sure that the system is running as it should as this will affect fuel efficiency, and don’t be afraid to ask for evidence of service reports, which should always be provided when the service is carried out.

Insurance requirements

Having adequate insurance cover in place is incredibly important as, if you’re not covered, it could end up costing you a small fortune to replace your tank. At the same time, any accidental damage will be your responsibility.

What security measures are in place?

When buying a home with an oil central heating system, you should always check what security measures are in place to protect it. For example, many homeowners invest in high-quality, robust locks, lighting, smart monitors and other security measures to deter thieves. View the 10 steps to prevent home heading oil theft to find out more.

Underground pipework

You will also need to find out where the underground pipework is located so that, if an engineer needs to access it, they are able to do so with ease.

Not only this but, if you don’t know the location of your delivery pipe, many companies will refuse to fill the tank.

Call us on 01829 260900 >>

Cost to fill the tank

Finally, it’s important that you gain an idea of how much it will cost to fill the tank before purchasing the property. This will help you identify whether or not the property’s heating oil costs are going to be affordable once you’ve moved in.

Remember, every home sold now must have an energy property certificate (EPC).

Considerations when selling your house with oil central heating

If have oil central heating and you are considering, or in the process of, selling your property, you should ensure that you have the following information to hand:

Servicing history
Tank age
Delivery schedule and provider
Security measures in place
Insurance documentation
Energy Property Certificate (EPC).
