Just because your heating system gets a break during the summer doesn’t mean your heating oil tank should be forgotten. In fact, the warmer months are the perfect time to give your tank some TLC. Proper off-season maintenance helps prevent corrosion, clogs, and unexpected repairs down the road.
Remember to keep your tank full!
A full tank is a happy tank. Warm and humid air can lead to condensation inside your tank, especially if it is not full. That moisture mixes with leftover oil to form sludge, which can cause clogs, corrosion, and long-term damage. Once fall arrives, this buildup can affect your system’s performance or even lead to costly repairs.
A full heating oil tank can help:
- Prevent internal corrosion that leads to tank releases
- Avoid clogged fuel lines caused by sludge
- Extend the lifespan of your heating system
- Keep your home prepared for the next heating season
Don’t forget about your off-season tune-up!
Scheduling your heating service in the spring gives our technicians time to inspect, clean, and test your system after the busy winter season. You’ll also have more flexibility around scheduling your appointment. A preseason tune-up from Spring Brook Ice & Fuel helps catch problems early and keeps your heating system running smoothly when you need it most!
Don’t wait for the first frost to think about your heating system. By maintaining a full fuel tank and scheduling a preventive maintenance tune-up, you can safeguard your equipment and ensure reliable performance through the off-season and into winter.
