heating oil tanks connecticutHow old is your home’s heating oil tank?

The average life expectancy of a heating oil tank is 20 years. If your tank is reaching that age, or is older, now is the time to start planning for its replacement.

Replacing your heating oil tank isn’t cheap if you’re making the replacement because of a tank failure. The figures below are national average costs for the work involved. Remember, the cost of this work varies greatly depending on whether you have an aboveground tank or an underground one.

Removal and disposal of your current tank: $500 – $3,000

Soil contamination tests: $200 – $500

Installation of new heating oil tank: $500 – $1,200

However, if the soil contamination tests reveal contamination from leaked heating oil, your costs just went up, potentially a great deal. Even just a small amount of contaminated soil can cost $2,000 or more to remediate.

This is where the news gets worse. Most homeowner’s insurance almost never covers the cost of a leaking heating oil tank. That means if your home’s heating oil tank fails, you’re left holding the bag for all those costs.

ProGuard gives you peace of mind

You can enjoy protection from much of those expenses with a heating oil tank replacement and cleanup plan from ProGuard! Servco customers who are on Automatic Delivery for their heating oil can enroll and get proactive tank replacement and cleanup coverage up to $50,000.

ProGuard is the country’s leading provider of heating oil tank protection.

Signs of heating oil tank failure

If you have an aboveground heating oil tank, inspect it regularly. You will often see signs that your heating oil tank is failing, giving you the opportunity to replace it before it does fail. This can lower your replacement costs considerable.

Here’s what to look for:

  • pinhole leaks
  • weeping or condensation on the tank, even after it has been filled
  • rust
  • blistering of the paint on the underside of the tank
  • bend or damaged legs

Contact Servco immediately if you see any of these on your heating oil tank. We’ll help you get started on replacing your heating oil tank with a new, high-quality tank.

reading fuel gauge connecticutIf you’re new to living in a home with propane, you probably have a few questions on the matter.

One of them is knowing when you need more propane. To know that you need to know how to read your propane tank gauge, so you know when to contact Servco Oil & Propane and schedule a propane delivery.

You can also enroll in our worry-free Automatic Delivery and wireless tank monitoring services and not have to do anything.

But if you’re going to use Will-Call for your propane delivery, here’s what you need to know.

Reading a propane tank gauge

It’s simple to read your propane tank gauge. Go outside to your propane tank. On it, look for a circular dial. The dial is usually shaped like a car’s speedometer.

The numbers on the dial show you how full your propane tank is. If the needle is set at 50, for example, your propane tank is 50% full.

How low can you let your tank go before we contact you to schedule a delivery? We strongly recommend that you never allow your tank level to fall below 30% if you use Will-Call service. This eliminates the risk of having to worry about a propane runout and the hassles that go along with it, such as needing an emergency delivery and needing to have a professional service technician perform a pressure test then re-light the pilots on all your propane appliances. The costs for all of that, by the way, are on you if you run out of propane.

The advantages of Automatic Delivery

You won’t have to worry about any of it when you have Automatic Delivery. We track your propane usage history as well as the current weather conditions. We use that information to accurately predict when your propane tank will need to be refilled, then schedule a delivery before you run out.

We offer Automatic Delivery for FREE because it aids us in our scheduling our deliveries more efficiently so that we can serve our clients even better and be more responsive when emergency deliveries are required.
