Heating Oil Tank Cleaning

Over time, fuel residues, moisture, and microparticles accumulate inside the heating oil tank. These substances settle at the bottom, forming sludge (sediment).

This buildup is not visible externally; however, it directly affects the operation of the heating system.

When the sediment increases, it is drawn through the suction line toward the burner, clogging filters and nozzles, causing malfunctions or even system shutdown. It also increases oil consumption and reduces thermal efficiency.

At the same time, the presence of moisture at the bottom accelerates tank corrosion.

Preventive cleaning:

• Protects the burner from damage

• Improves combustion quality

• Extends the lifespan of the tank

• Reduces maintenance costs

The most suitable time for this procedure is during the summer months, when the oil level is low and access to the bottom of the tank is easier.
