When it comes to heating oil, it’s something that you take for granted but when it runs out, you soon realise how much you rely on it. Whether it’s in a domestic setting, a commercial setting, agricultural or retail, when you run out of heating oil, you soon understand the problems that you face but this doesn’t have to be the case with a free heating oil smart monitor.

What is an oil tank monitor?

An oil tank monitor measures the depth of the oil in your oil tank. This allows you to know if your oil fuel levels are adequate for extra peace of mind.

One of the best ways to monitor your oil levels is through digital monitors. Digital oil monitors can be accessed via smartphones and tablets which gifts you the ability to easily view your oil tank levels.

As a member of our priority club, you will receive a free oil tank monitor that we will install and remotely observe to ensure your oil does not run out. Our oil tank monitors will alert and inform you when oil gets low as well as any sudden drops that could indicate a leak or theft.

Oil tank monitors vs oil tank gauges

Oil tank monitors remotely and accurately measure and monitor the fuel levels in your tank to ensure the oil does not run out. Using updated technology oil tank monitoring systems can identify when oil levels are low and ensure they are refilled before disaster strikes.

The digitalised nature of oil tank monitors allows you to be notified and alerted of any problems and issues with your oil tank in real time. As part of the priority club, NWF Fuel will monitor your tank for that extra peace of mind.

Oil tank gauges are located in your oil tank and are usually easy and clear to read. They display the level of fuel remaining in the tank, usually indicated by a red marker, rather than the number of litres. Although they do not provide an exact measure of oil in the tank, they give a good indication of oil levels.

To find the exact amount of oil remaining in the tank using an oil tank gauge you will need to use an electronic gauge or conduct a manual reading.
