Description
1000 Litre Slimline Bunded Oil Tank
The Centurion 1000 litre slimline plastic bunded oil tank provides secure domestic heating oil storage where garden space or property access is restricted. At only 610 mm wide, it is particularly suitable for narrow gateways, side passages and compact installation areas.
Manufactured in Britain from UV-stabilised medium density polyethylene (MDPE), the tank is resistant to corrosion and designed for long-term outdoor use.
Designed for Restricted Access
The narrow 610 mm width provides a practical balance between domestic heating oil capacity and a compact footprint.
Before ordering, measure the complete route from the delivery point to the proposed tank location. Check gateways, doorways, pathways, corners and turning points, including any hinges, handles, pipes or other obstructions.
Bunded Double-Wall Construction
This tank uses a tank-within-a-tank design. The inner tank stores the heating oil, while the integral outer bund provides secondary containment if the inner tank or associated components develop a leak.
The UV-stabilised MDPE construction will not rust or corrode. A lockable outer lid helps protect the filling and inspection points from unauthorised access.
