Compliance: suitable for OFTEC compliant oil tank installations (installer to confirm site specifics).
Use an OFTEC-registered installer. Site the tank on a flat, non-combustible base that extends beyond the footprint and keep the clearances your installer specifies from walls, boundaries, and ignition sources. These oil tank installation requirements must be assessed at site level to ensure suitability.
