Description
This 2400 litre plastic bunded oil tank model is built for domestic properties that require significant fuel storage volume. The lower overall height and wide footprint support stable ground positioning while maintaining integrated secondary containment for residential installations.
What This Tank Is
This is a rotationally moulded plastic oil tank constructed from corrosion-resistant polyethylene. The inner tank stores fuel, while the outer bund provides integral containment to reduce environmental risk in the event of leaks or overfilling.
As a 2400 litre oil tank, it is suited to high-consumption households seeking reduced delivery frequency and increased storage headroom.
Compliance & Installation Considerations
Designed as a horizontal oil storage tank, this model sits low and stable on a prepared base, allowing easier servicing and access to fittings.
Use an OFTEC-registered installer. Position on a level, non-combustible base that extends beyond the footprint and keep the clearances your installer specifies from walls, boundaries and ignition sources.
This bunded oil tank for home heating is appropriate for domestic installations where secondary containment is required.
Capacity & Storage Suitability
Capacity: 2,400 litres for larger households or higher usage
A large domestic oil tank of this size supports properties with substantial annual heating demand. The increased storage volume helps minimise refill frequency, offering greater seasonal resilience during colder months.
Construction & Durability
The polyethylene body is corrosion-resistant and low maintenance, offering long-term durability without the upkeep associated with steel alternatives.
The double-skinned construction provides built-in spill protection through integral bunding.
Warranty: 12-year manufacturer cover
This model is engineered for straightforward maintenance and dependable long-term domestic heating oil storage.
