With the winter weather approaching it's important to look out for water in your tank that may affect your boiler.
Get in touch with us today and we can offer a health check and pump out any water, making sure your tank is winter ready.
It’s important to check the health of your oil tank throughout the year, but do you know what to look out for?
Things such as the plastic drying out, leaks and cracks are easy to identify, but what about inside the tank? By allowing your tank to run low during the summer, you are leaving room for condensation to build up which eventually creates a layer of water at the bottom of your tank.
Water in your tank is the ideal breeding ground for bacterial microbes, which can lead to a layer of sludge settling below the water. If the water and sludge are not removed from the tank this eventually seeps into your fuel supply line, causing the boiler to stop working.
Checking your tank is part of the JHeating Services inspection checkpoints and they will remove any water that may be present.
To ensure your heating system and tank is ready for the colder months or to book an annual service, call the team on 01382 505 092 or visit our website https://jheatingservices.co.uk/
